“Because in 2024, Ukraine is no longer facing Russia. Soldiers from North Korea are standing in front of Ukraine. Let’s be honest. Already in Ukraine, the Iranian ‘Shahedis’ are killing civilians absolutely openly, without any shame,” said Zaluzhny, adding that North Korean and Chinese weapons are flying into Ukraine. Zaluzhny urged Ukraine’s allies to draw the right conclusions. “It is still possible to stop it here, on the territory of Ukraine. But for some reason our partners do not want to understand this. It is obvious that Ukraine already has too many enemies. Ukraine will survive with technology, but it is not clear whether it can win this battle alone,” he said.

    My comment focuses on saving lives. While this community demands conflict, few are actively supporting Ukraine. Millions suffer as many enjoy the holidays. Yes, Russia is to blame—but the priority is ending the nightmare for Ukrainian families who’ve endured 1,000 days of war. They don’t care who started it or who’s winning; they just want peace.

      Ok, the most effective way of saving lives is for Russia to withdraw, if Ukraine looses the conflict, Russia will continue killing.

        Hillarious. Russia is convinced that it is fighting a defensive existential war. It is doing so with a volunteer (though well paid) army, and it still has elections including in newly liberated areas. Asking “Russia to just withdraw” is an impractical “feel good” idea.

            I’m not even sure what a tankie is, but I hear it is communist.

            Anti-war is a humanist position. As is anti stupid. Free people lose as a result of devotion to empire that is happy to diminish and kill them. That reality has a pro Russia bias, does not make realism pro Russia.

        As you sit in peace ready to celebrate the holiday you feel that other people should not only continue the conflict but escalate it??? What you are saying is not even a strategy its a feel good meat grinder of people you couldn’t care less for.
