All she knew was war. That’s so tragic.

Also Tragic that we, Ukrainians, are blamed for defending our children from the Russian terrorist regime…

Ukrainians criticised for not giving up the hope of being a free nation

For having the courage to request military aid, which is the only way to stop Russian aggression…

That's so tragic! Everyone is a peacemaker - and we - Ukrainians are “war gold diggers “

We are still standing but thanks to the peacemaker I don't know for how long

That's a bit harsh. Balticum, Poland, and Scandinavian are 100 behind you with money and weapons. Unfortunately we are rather small countries, it would be nice if some of the bigger ones also stepped up.

I don't want/need thanks, just don't like to be called a 'Peacemaker' that only talks and doesn't support.

I totally get she is pissed that most European countries aren't truly backing Ukraine's fight for freedom.
When you see contributions like €39 from Ireland or €29 from Italy, it's honestly embarrassing.
Especially when the Baltic countries — Small economies with low-income populations — are giving €600 to €900 per person, and Norway tops the list with around €1,200 per citizen.

So gratitude towards those who help and shame towards those who don't.

Except for the Israel-Palestine conflict, which has been adopted as a pet conflict by a lot of people since the 60s, usually the farther a country from a conflict, the less involved its people feel. I don’t think Baltic countries care much for conflicts ravaging some African countries. I am not saying it is right, just understandable.

we are immensely grateful for that, honestly - I don't know what we would do without you

Russia is a big monster and, as you said, we need bigger guys in our team

As a German I’m very grateful that our government supports your country, but on the other hand there is MUCH more we should do. Too much hesitation in delivering weapons for no reason. And too many people in Germany are still too friendly with Russia and don’t see that these are our enemies, too. Really pisses me off TBH

Listen, the military are howling, we are bad. Why such bias? I don't mind communicating with Ukrainians on social networks. I have Ukrainian friends, but when a person openly claims that all the Russian people are terrible, it's offensive

According to independent sources that poll in Russia 60-70 % of the population still support this war. They basically support killing their neighbours so as the "russian world" continues expanding. Fuck them.

I understand there are 1/3 rd of people there who condemns this. Lets hope that after russia collapses that those people can grab power there. But I have my doubts.

u/Suitable_Fix4761 1d ago

Nobody claims that. But it is your state, your army, your government. And all Russian people that are quiet and don’t stand up are also part of it, even if the vast majority of them may be nice people and don’t support the war particularly

Russia produces 4 times as much munitions as every NATO country combined. It’s not a matter of more countries helping. There needs to be a negotiation for a ceasefire. This war was never going to be won with conventional means.

“In terms of ammunition, Russia produces in three months what the whole of NATO produces in a year,” Rutte said on 10 June, adding that Putin’s war machine is “speeding up, not slowing down".

The European Commission has set a target to ramp up ammunition production to 2 million rounds per year in 2025, while the US is looking to hit a new target of 100,000 rounds per month by October.

Other allies, including Norway, the United Kingdom and Canada, are also looking to boost supply chains.

Right, so I’m not sure why I’m getting downvoted for stating a fact.

Yeah. It’s not a great thing to hear, don’t make it untrue though.
