"SNIP......

“Never, please, never tell us again that our army does not meet NATO standards. We have shown what our standards are capable of. And how much we can give to the common security in Europe and the world.”

— Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, addressed the NATO summit via video.

......SNIP"

1. That is a total mike drop!

[Mr. Evil]

2. What you said!

[Gore1FL]

3. That's a hard point to argue with.

I look forward to Ukraine joining NATO in the near future.

4. ABC News reported tonight that Putin said that Russia would occupy Mariupol forever.

He will not stop, and without military help in the air I do not see how Ukraine can stop him from turning every one of their cities into the ruin that is now Mariupol. This afternoon a Ukrainian journalist described the people in Mariupol as without hope. They are now just waiting to die. It may be too late for Mariupol, but I cannot see NATO standing by and allowing this to happen throughout Ukraine. Yes, we’re giving them weapons, but they need help using them and help taking out the ships and land-based missile sites that are destroying their cities. As we finally saw with Hitler, some things are worth fighting for, and a madman never gives up. Neither will Putin because no sanctions will hurt him enough personally. No one else matters to him.

5. Cutting Ukraine off from the Black Sea is an obvious objective.

That works both ways. Turkey can isolate Russia at the straits, and has already closed the straits to warships.

6. You are aware Ukrainians exploded a Russian ship in the Black

Sea. So there is that.

7. Remember Grozny? Russia immolated it...

that is what they are attempting here. A total annihilation.

But Ukraine is not Chechnya and it isn't Syria. We are in a different world right now. We'll see what happens.

[calimary]

9. I'm afraid the only thing that will stop Putin is if one of his insiders takes him out.

For the good of everyone else in the world.

He's not going to want to stick around to face a war crimes tribunal. His ego and his "manhood" are on the line. Nobody wants to admit they were wrong. I suspect that's Putin's problem, times about a million.

15. I look for that each morning.

One of these mornings it will be there!

[sarchasm]

8. What HE said....

[BidenRocks]

10. Now, who can argue with that?

Revrun!

Thank you Howard Johnson.

[GB_RN]

14. Authentic Frontier Gibberish!

😂
Blazing Saddles is the greatest!

[Evolve Dammit]

11. Volo rocks! He is showing the entire world what courage and conviction look like. n/t

[MeNotThatKindOfOrc]

12. I've never called myself being much of a fan girl before...

But I am totally a fan girl for Zelensky

[BobTheSubgenius]

13. If Ukraine had 1/4 of the military might of the US,

what was left of the invasion force would have been fleeing eastward two weeks ago. Their armed forces are formidable, given the disparity in raw power.
