Summary
Days before the third anniversary of Russia’s invasion, Ukrainians find unity threatened not just by Russia but also shifting U.S. support.
Donald Trump’s false labeling of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a “dictator” has provoked fierce backlash, even from Zelenskyy’s critics, who now rally around him.
With ongoing Russian attacks and Ukrainian forces stretched thin, Trump’s suggestion of a swift end to hostilities raises fears of concessions favoring Russia.
Officials argue that elections amid war would undermine Ukraine’s sovereignty. Many vow to continue resisting, regardless of major foreign policy changes.
Isn’t it pretty standard to postpone elections in wartime?
Not really in the course of history. A lot of countries had no elections that could have been postponed.
Also, yes.
But the US had elections during WW2 and they where in exact same position as Ukraine is now!
Were they? Wich part of the US was ocupied exaclty? Apart from some atols in the middle of nowhere?
I’m 99. 9% confident they were being sarcastic.
I sure as hell hope so. But I can’t be certain anymore. So much weird, hyperbolic shit has happened or been said in the past 3 months, it makes headlines from The Onion seem reasonable in comparison.
