“Ukrainians are very grateful to the United States for its support in the war with Russia, but the international community must decide whether to stop Russia now or allow it to “go further,” Zelenskyy said”.
“The whole world (has to) decide whether we want to stop Putin, or whether we want to start the beginning of a world war. We can’t change Putin. Russian society has (lost) the respect of the world. They elected him and re-elected him, and raised a second Hitler. They did this. We cannot go back in time. But we can stop it here.”
Citing the roughly $70 billion the United States has contributed to Ukraine’s war effort, Pelley asked Zelenskyy if he expected that level of support to continue.
The United States of America (is) supporting Ukraine financially and I’m grateful for this,” Zelenskyy said. “I just think they’re not supporting only Ukraine. If Ukraine falls, Putin will surely go further. What will the United States of America do when Putin reaches the Baltic states? When he reaches the Polish border? He will. This is a lot of money. We have a lot of gratitude. What else must Ukraine do for everyone to measure our huge gratitude? We are dying in this war.”
Waiting for downvotes for this. But you can’t deny this fact.
Hearing that from a dude who had multimillion bussiness in Russia thus supporting Putin’s regime even AFTER Crimea annexation is beyong hypocrisity. Initially Zelensky denied the fact he had bussiness in Russia but after a huge press coverage he finally admitted to having several Russian companies. Mind you, that was in 2019, 5 years after Russia annexed Crimea.
Ukrainian actor Volodymyr Zelenskiy, who has said he is running for president of Ukraine, has admitted that he has commercial interests in Russia and has said he will divest himself of them “in the near future.”
In an interview with Ukrainskaya Pravda on January 20, Zelenskiy confirmed a January 18 report by RFE/RL that he is a co-owner of a Cyprus-registered firm called Green Family LTD, which owns the Russian filmmaking company Grin Films.
“Our company owns shares of that company,” Zelenskiy said. “That is true.”
He said that he has no direct relationship with Grin Films and had no role in the company’s successful application for a grant from the Russian Culture Ministry.
He added that he has not worked in Russia since Moscow’s 2014 annexation of the Ukrainian region of Crimea, although he acknowledged that his company had been receiving royalties from film projects since that time.

For those downvoting me:
Crimea should belong to Ukraine
That’s true. Hitler started small and became a mass-murderer later. Putin will be the same. He is already killing thousands of Europeans in the last month… he will not stop. We have to stop him, like Hitler was stopped.
“They elected him and reelected him”
And he says it with a straight face while Navalny who was the main opposition candidate is currently in jail facing lifetime sentence and who told his supporters not to participate in the elections later.
What a hypocrite. It’s even OK that he said that but since the start of the war I haven’t heard a single word for Navalny from him, even though Navalny is half-ukrainian.
Later he did nothing in 2021 when Navalny was jailed after he returned to Russia from Germany.
Second Hitler is a bit much. Second Stalin though? That sounds more appropriate

At least Hitler didn’t have nukes.
Well if he’s right we’ll see another Reichskomissariat Ukraine
Sadly it doesn’t seem like the majority of the world is interested in stopping Russia.
Outside of the NATO countries + Australia, Japan and South Korea, everyone else is at best neutral or at worst siding with Russia (Iran,NK,China,etc.)
“Literally Hitler” moment
What’s up with all these Zelensky bashing comments? Are Russian spies/trolls among us?
