The man is resolute. Ukraine is lucky to have him as their leader.

That's literally what it comes down to. I don't think it requires clean language or flowery etiquette. A country is at risk of losing their freedom and independence because another country wants to conquer it for the sake of land, wealth, and perceived glory.

There is no simpler way to explain Ukraine's justification in continuing the fight than how Zelenskyy put it. The reasoning is sound. And it's a much-needed reminder for anybody who forgot amidst the politics surrounding the war.

I have bought a few ukranian beers if that matters. Every time I take a sip I feel their pain and terror. It is not a nice feeling. I think there is some quantum entanglement or just fear of losing your ground.

The Putfuck re-started a 1940 era war by breaking their former promises, in a time period the entire humanity is burning up due to our collective failure to take care our future.

The time and resources wasted by this war has no number and no cost other than denying our own future existent on this blue marble. The clock is ticking, and my only hope is that humanity survives, despite its arrogant and violent nature.
