Those are Ukranians, both of them, no Russian would say that and since none of you know the difference between Russian and Ukrainian it's too easy to fool people
If they're Ukrainians, why the interviewer says "Добрый день", in Russian (notice how the "e" is pronounced "je") instead of "Хороший день" or "Добрий ранок", in Ukrainian (notice how the "e" is pronounced "e")?
Most Ukrainians also speak Russian. All my Ukrainian friends only speak Russian online because they can reach more people through it. They aren't bound to speaking Ukrainian only.
OC said none of us know the difference between Russian and Ukrainian. I proved that person wrong.
Yes and you can neither trust the western news. The Nato and the west uses the conflict to their own purposes. Like every country does. This fight between Russia and the West isn't new. We've seen it long before.
I totally disagree with the war but i also find it irresponsible to only speak up when "bad commie Russia" does something. But when the US kills thousands of civilians in completely unjustified wars around the world nobody cares in the west.
Since the fall of the Warsaw pact there is no more any justification for the existence of the Nato alliance.
I'm anti-war and i think this should end as quickly as it began but what Zelensky is doing is no more than selling out his country to the west. For the next centuries Ukraine will be in debt to the western nations and by that, enslaved by them.
If zelensky would care about his people he would come to the table and find an agreement with the other side. Everyone has to make compromises in this war. No side will have a total win, but a first world war like trench war that takes years isn't helpful to neither of the sides. Only more people will die. What is more important, that the people live in Russian donbass or Ukrainian donbass, or that the people will die.
Also the west doesn't care about Ukraine, all they care about is hurting Russia. Some years back nobody in Europe or Nato would've considered Ukraine as a viable partner. Now out of nowhere they do
The agreement being Russia gets the fuck out of Ukraine you. fucking. invaders.
