"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.

but are we really helping them by getting them killed? If we really wanted to help we would start diplomacy, take a good look at our past and don't think we are so much better than Russia. We are not!

If you want them to keep getting killed yes its irrelevant what the US did in the past. If you want peace we need to take a good look at our selves and work with Russia. You know Trump is going to work with Russia to stop this instead of the current administrator meat grinder strategy.

How would we be helping them by letting Russia take over the entire country?

I'm not saying to let Russia take over the country. Let the administrations iron it out with the Kremlin and put a stop to this cynical war.

Lmfao, Russia has no interest in diplomacy, they illegal invaded Crimea and annexed it, and the west did nothing.

Big surprise they then invaded ALL of Ukraine, how can you possibly think diplomacy is going to work?

Cynical war indeed, that Russia started as a "special military exercise" and has consistently lied about to their people and abroad.

You're delusional if you think Russia is coming to any diplomatic agreements in good faith.

I am not justifying Russia's unjustifiable attack on Ukraine; I firmly believe they should withdraw and end the conflict. However, it’s important to recognize that Russia perceives itself as fighting a defensive war, much like the perspective you’ve expressed.

While we can debate the motives on both sides endlessly, the reality remains that innocent people are dying—not just soldiers but civilians, including the elderly and children, who are succumbing to preventable causes due to a lack of basic necessities. These are unnecessary and tragic losses a sin in the eyes of the lord.

It’s deeply troubling that such suffering continues because two powers cannot reach an agreement—one striving to reclaim a Soviet-era vision, and the other pursuing profit-driven interests. This cycle of violence and disregard for human life is a tragedy that must not be normalized.
