Ukraine's leader had said the deal with Russia to release diesel into the US would help Moscow fund the war.

      I doubt a new figurehead will help them much. A society that repeatedly elects someone like that orange shit stain on humanity is broken to the core, can’t fix that with replacing the top muppet.

      Por que no los dos?

      IDK how much a new president is going to help Ukraine tho, if they agree to peace and give up russian-majority territory, there will almost certainly be a fascist coup.

        Porque no los tres?

        Russia, Ukraine and US head figures all look a bit worse for wear.

          I have no idea what happens when Putin gets got. From what I’ve heard, the alternatives are “conservatives LARPing as communists”, “fascists worse than putin”, and “liberals who will bring back the 90s”.

          I’ve asked a few Russians what happens, they didn’t make any predictions.

    If Trump says Ukraine needs a new president, Zelensky must do something right.

    But the headline, forwarded from hexbear, fits the pro-authoritarian propaganda, and one or two tankies are already in the thread applauding.

      You made that up.

      They’re mostly mocking Zelenskyy for expecting America to help Ukraine, given what we do to all our allies, not simply strip both sides for cheap labor and resources. Some of them are talking about whether dogs can be mayors.

    I don’t think Ukraine gives a fuck what this blowhard says at this point.
