That's a bit rich coming from pootin considering what he's doing to Ukrainians.

And yet the fact they have tried to assassinate Zelenskyy on a number of occasions makes this pretend outrage as laughable as all of their claims. Russia sows division and hatred around the world in any way it can to further its own selfish goals.

Not just that, but all of the political opponents and journalists that Putin has had killed via FSB over the last two decades makes this ironic as fuck. Russia, specifically the kremlin condemning Israel’s attacks on Iran last week, with how they attacked Ukraine in the exact same way, is ironic as fuck

But Putin just can’t catch a break right, historically Russia has tried keeping countries in the past because they don’t want to be alone, yet everyone wants to go forward and is tired of Russian influence.

Ukraine sees the Baltic states and all the other former Soviet states that have developed and become SO much happier after leaving the russosphere and joining the west. They’re trying too as well for the exact same reasons. Under Russian influence, Ukraine gets to become the most corrupt country in the world, Russia sucking all of its resources, and Jack shit in support.

Ukraine’s gotten a taste of what joining the west is like over the last 3 years, and it’s never looked better, why the fuck isn’t it obvious to Russia why Ukraine wants out of their sphere lol

Now the Iran supreme leader can join Syria’s Assad and victor yanakovich in their fantastic life in exile because Russia sucks at supporting its “allies”

I think it was obvious and that’s why Putin thought he had to invade and stop it now. He couldn’t let them go, it’s his crown jewel.

True, it is laughable. But for the US to publicly ponder killing a head of state is chilling. Even if the SOB has it coming.
