  1. Anyone who watched the entire video knows that Donald Trump and Vance were in the wrong.

    How many of you have seen the video of when Zielinski showed up at the White House today and Trump made fun of what he was wearing.

    A couple of days ago Trump called him a dictator.

    Trump is like a little kid who keeps poking you and then gets upset when someone punches him in the face.

  2. It’s good to see all these countries openly support Ukraine. It feels like the demise of American dominance on the world stage has begun today. There’s nothing ‘Make America Great Again’ about it. It’s the opposite actually.

  3. Abso – fucking – lutely…. Never seen such a poor display of diplomacy. As a Aussie, I stand with Ukraine.

  4. You’re goddamn right we do. Australia, like every other nation has it’s own problems and hypocrisies, but you’d have to be an absolute *moron* to think Ukraine is on the wrong side of things here.

  5. Fuckin ay! Albo might not be our greatest, but man, I’ll have a flip out if discount Trump Dutton wins our election and replaces him.

  6. The whole world backs Ukraine except the Orange turd and Moonfaced weasel.

    A brave man stood against the insults of the 2 most powerful people in the world, in their house, in their native language, on their media pointed at him. They made fun of his clothes, but he wears them in respect to his soldiers in the frontline. It was a scripted ambush, he said thanks upon arriving.

    He kept his composure against 2 bon-rich manchildren who wouldn’t last 1 day in his shoes. You and I know that both they would have shart their pants and ask for an evacuation. He said he is willing to step down if that means peace.

    I held him in high regard before, and since today I admire him.

    F US, when you’re inevitable clash with China I’ll be drinking pina coladas listening to lo-fi girl lol. You’re no longer considered allies, nor welcomed, and yes the transition will take time but we can do just fine without you, we have each other, unlike you.

    Canadians you’re welcome, and I feel sorry you got borders with this dumpster fire circus. If you read project 2025 guidelines, at the next months they will be a monarchy in all but name. Let them rot and boil in their own shit.

  7. So how long till they pull out of AUKUS and ditch those idiotic US subs they won’t even be able to maintain?

  8. The whole world is laughing at Trump right now! What a buffoon!! Canada approves of this message

  9. Good! Every decent country needs to do this. And I’m a US citizen living in the US. This government is horrific.

  10. America will not heal until true democracy is restored and that doesn’t mean corporate Democrats. It’s time for a new party with real integrity. The others have had enough years to set things right and this is where you are.

  11. Donald Trump not knowing what AUKUS is made the choice quite simple I guess.

  12. This show of support is fantastic to see but I hope that translates into something materially (weapons, troops, technology, finances) and not thoughts and prayers.

  13. Today the USA lost any soft power it had retained over the past month. It was embarrassing to watch the world’s number 1 economy and power, openly and publicly, become the bully. Zelensky did the world a great favour, he moved the dance around Trump past mere pleasantries.

    The White House underestimated him. It’s past time for being pleasant, they’re at war, the bear is already inside the border. Zelensky literally can’t back down, they’re not talking trade deals for cheese.

  14. Would be cool to see the Klitchko brothers waiting beside Vance’s car in the parking lot

  15. good I was worried about Albanese not having the balls to say anything

  16. As an Australian, I’m very happy to see this headline.

  17. Well said, Albo. Gets the point across where we stand in regard to Ukraine, Russia and the world at large without denigrating one of, if not our biggest, ‘allies’.

  18. Thank you Albo, you said what most us think. But I don’t have to be political, Trump is a grubby, despicable piece of rotting turd. 💩

  19. I mean unless you are a dictator and want to rule with power instead of law and order, it’s darn obvious who to back.

  20. The worst part about this is as support from other nations grows for Ukrainian aid, Trump will say this was his plan all along to get other countries to finally contribute and his supporters will eat it up.

  21. Trump’s peace plan is metaphorically, if you’re raped, don’t fight back, so it ends quicker.

  22. It feels strange to write this, but as an Australian and a peace loving person, we need as a global community to stand up to the biggest threat to the world right now. The USA. I fucking hate writing that because I have so many American friends who are smart, educated and despise what is happening.

    How dare you insult a foreign leader who wears what he does as a symbol of respect for his troops.

    How dare you say he will be responsible for the WW3 when it was THEIR country being invaded.

    I love Americans but I fucking hate America.

    I want the America Australia bromance we have shared since the 2nd World War. Not this.

    Also,

    It’s mind boggling the amount of disrespect that Trump has shown towards Canada. You won’t get an inch of Canadian land and god forbid it comes to it, we have Canadas back. Always will. We may be half a world away but you fuck with our Canuck cousins you fuck with us….

    Come at me bots

  23. Conservatives in America: Look at how strong America is.

    Everyone else in the whole freaking world: America is a weak, spineless nation who is helping russia.

    Conservatives live in their own little world where reality fears to tread.

  24. Can we swap out Canada for the US in AUKUS? AUCANUK?

  25. It’s good to see democracies stand with Ukraine. What does that say about the US?

  26. New Zealand too:

    Prime Minister Christopher Luxon:

    I am aware of Presidents Trump and Zelensky’s robust exchange.

    New Zealand remains steadfast in its support for Ukraine as it defends itself in a war that Russia started.

    It’s mounting the defence of a proud, democratic, sovereign nation, but also the defence of international law.

    The best route to peace is for Russia to cease its three-year long illegal and immoral war of aggression.

    We all want the US and Ukraine working together towards the shared objective of a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.

  27. Bad eyes.. I thought the small image was of B1 and B2!

  28. While I appreciate the support to Ukraine, it’s up to America’s closest allies to pressure them when they commit such acts of disgrace.

    I wish we could have an ounce of courage and plainly condemn the way trump and Vance conducted themselves.

  29. I shudder to think what will happen if Dutton wins the election in Aus. He will be a wannabe trump and side with him no doubt.

  30. I love how so many countries gives the 🖕 to trump right now

  31. The emus stand ready, say the word and we’ll unleash Hell.

  32. Thank fuck we have a guy with his head screwed on lol

  33. Please donate to Unite24 (run by the Ukraine government) https://u24.gov.ua/ if you feel just as angry as me about what happened

    If you feel compelled to assist Ukraine in its fight for freedom and democracy, click the above link to visit Ukraine’s official site for direct contribution to their cause.

  35. Everyone can say that they support Ukraine, but are they going to pay though?

  36. Aussie here – growing up, my family never had strong international opinion or knowledge, bar one thing that has always stuck in my memory: in times of conflict – the U.S. are our brothers in arms, if they ask us to go, we were there yesterday!

    I will be breaking/ severing that ongoing generational idealism with my kids… not only with the trajectory they have been on the last few weeks, but the way those stupid cunts conducted themselves today, towards a western ally in need. Fuck you.

  37. So, they can start footing the bill so my grandkids aren’t paying for it then
