    If he had also condemned Israel’s attack this statement would have some weight. Now he’s making it further obvious that he’ll suck whoever’s dick is necessary to get more support

      I mean, if you were the leader of a country that was under active invasion by a enemy with numerical and firepower superiority, would you not do the same? Given the circumstances, he’d arguably be failing his people if he did not pursue whatever avenue to get more aid that he can

        Sure I’m not saying he’s doing something wrong. I’m just saying his words are worthless because of the reason you just spelled out.

        Given his circumstances, I’m surprised he hasn’t given up territory for the purpose of saving his people’s lives.

          I’m no strategist but what’s to stop Putin from agreeing, taking some time to regroup, and then just doing it again? Ukraine would be out whatever was agreed to but still in the same position.

      Why would Ukraine condemn an attack on a country that is supplying Russia with drones used to kill Ukrainian men, women and children?
