  1. Shame to bloody slavery putin-zelenskyis war without end genocide humanity in Ukraine. People live and human right in Ukraine have matters. Open border in Ukraine give people choice. SAVE PEOPLE FROM UKRAINE FROM ENDLESS CRIMES AGAINST HUMANE OF PUTIN ZELENSKY. PEOPLE'S MUST not be rightlezs slaves of governments

  6. Huge replacements of top Ukrainian generals speak volume regarding military operations successes. I’m getting worried. The world only gets less turmoil and more peaceful with Putin gone !

  8. Noticed you’ve left out that Syrsky commanded the downfall of Bakhmut. And how he stole manpower from the Spring Offensive trying to retake it.

  9. This replacement will never change things, it's like changing rubber boots for rubber galoshes to cross the yard for an outside loo .

  14. There was nothing to shake up. Zelensky's gang was stealing from army and the state. Zaluzhny didn't want to be a part of it. Plus Zaluzhny is extremely popular among Ukrainians and is a real threat to zelensky who's ratings are zero.

  22. its over for Zelensky. horrible move to get rid of his competition and to surround himself with YesMan

  23. From different reports, it shows that the decision to change Zaluzhany was because he was too cautious with the lives of his troops, this new guy is not..to expect blood baths and cannon fodder waves..😢😢

  26. This is a wrap for Ukraine, they got duped by the west. No one wants to fight and US tax payers don’t want to fund a forever war.
