Summary

Russia launched a major attack on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure on Christmas Day, using 184 missiles and drones, resulting in power cuts across the country.

Ukrainian President Zelensky condemned the attack, calling it “inhumane” and a “conscious choice” by Russia.

Despite the damage and casualties, Ukrainians remain resilient, celebrating Christmas amidst the crisis.

Because he knows if he does, the US will reconsider support.

Yeah, of course. But quite the hypocrisy to condemn one and not the other.

[-] catloaf@lemm.ee 18 points 3 months ago

It's between that and annihilation. I'd probably hold my tongue too.

[-] ModernRisk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 months ago

Does not take away that’s immensely hypocritical. Especially since what Russia is doing, is Israel doing to the Palestinians.

Don’t think that matters since Putin is also murdering innocent people. Both Israel and Russia and their regime are shit.

So we need to hold Zelensky to a higher standard about a conflict he is not and does not want to be involved in. Got it.

If that’s what you understood from what I wrote, that’s not my problem.

Well, see, it is, because that's what you're communicating. If you want people to understand your words then please use them appropriately.

[-] ModernRisk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

This is the best I can do, English isn’t my native language.

[-] meco03211@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

Is your native language Russian?

[-] ModernRisk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

No but if you want, I can use a translator to translate it to Russian language.
