Pro Putin parties did very well in elections. The people are done with that comedian and his constant begging
No one will be stupid enough to believe that Russia has plans and needs to invade Europe.
If only Zelensky had look for some help from a winner!
Still as arrogant as always
Hide your wallets
Anyone here remember being in Berlin? Do you remember when she said we would meet again one sunny day. Do I need to send more floods, Russia?
'Post war reconstruction' means building war material factories in Ukraine. Germany's Rheinmetall has already made plans for a factory to produce artillery shells in Ukraine.
EU going back to their facist ways
Send the green dictator to the frontlines!
Send all war mongoose to the frontlines!
Zelinsky: “Our Father which art in heaven….”
Try farting, Elensky!
Reconstruction? Shouldnt they first try to not lose the war?
Beggars can't be chosers.
