Russian armed forces advancing on hitler and zelensky
It takes about 5 to 6 years to build one power station, so the people of Ukraine are in trouble for the next 30 to 50 years
Russia is on the right side of history!
Ukraine provoked Russia to do this they started targeting Russia energy infrastructure. Now this its no no more a special operation.
Zelenskyy is foolish for starting a war with Russia. He supposed to be neutral than fighting with Russia.
What a waste of lives because of NATO
Can't they locate the so-called president himself and deal with him directly? Maybe the war would stop.๐คทโโ๏ธ
No way Zelensky can win this war as we have seen since during World War II how Russia ๐ท๐บ has been able to survive without Europe or US become so strong that the people who are brave enough to fight for their country
Zelensky is making fool of his own people
US is waiting to benefit After the War or trying to have hold on Ukraine which is not at all good for people of Ukraine as whole Middle East is suffering from US interference
Russias hurrying to end it while Biden is president
Terrorism
Sponsored by In d ! @.
Just like in history Russia is on the right side again
Why do I have to watch Wion to get real news,when I live in the U.S.? Russia is getting serious now. Zelenski had plenty of time to stop this,but listened to his puppet masters in the West instead. They don't care how many Ukrainian soldiers have died for a losing effort. Putin has more integrity than Biden or any Western leader.
May as well give Americans thete160 billion backsplit that up between 350 mill that stimulates Americans not foreign wars๐ฎ
I think Russia now is seriously angry. They are going to show it's mighty
This destruction was caused by shovels thrown by the Russians. After all, the media reported two years ago that Russian soldiers no longer had weapons and were fighting with shovels๐คญ
civilians in Ukraine are paying for this nonsense war very sad
NATO alliance need to stop this nonsense war.
Man, Russia sure has some powerful shovels and washing machines๐
Ukraine's defeat will be blamed on USA, NATO and the West.
Always treasure the incredible day of December 8, 2021. An Indian highest priority VIP helicopter mission transporting India's most important senior commander Bipin as well as many of India's most highest ranking captains, generals, officers, chiefs, squadron leaders all onboard crashed resulting in the death of all 14 passengers. If India cannot even guarantee their most senior military officer safety during a short and simple 4 minute flight, how can they possibly accomplish anything?
This is not a fairy tale made up by India's adversaries to make it as though India's military is incompetent. It's the truth with concrete evidence of it happening and I have it all on video. This event will go down in history as one of the best of all time.
A polar bear with a massive shovel =RUSSIA
USA. –NATO –UE –GRAN BRETAGNA hanno preso di mira l'orso sbagliato…..
Una volta messo al angolo,non piangete quando ruggisce…..
Next time u want to fight a war make sure have your own supplies
Russia has always been very calm and patient I don't think that offer is still on the table Ukraine will be in dust and nothing the west or USA can do anything about it
Bravo Russia โคโ๐ฅ๐ช๐ช
Why not Zielinsky raise his hands and say "let there be peace"
This man is soo foolish oo
This is retaliation
But JOKER PUTIN THREATENS NUCLEAR ATTACK DAILY 805 DAYS. DON'T TAKE PUTLER SERIOUSLY ๐๐๐
Warmongers thought starting a war with Russia would a walk in the park like Iraq ๐คฃ
Russia can never win a war…
God is with the Ukrainians. Ukrain, its time to call upon the name of the Lord.
Zelensky days are number , NATO / USA is plot to kill him so they can start to negotiate peace with Russia . The sooner Zelensky gone is the better for them , and the sanction will end faster than when they start because Europe need oil and gas from Russia to live through the coming winter . ๐
What is the point of spending to repair infrastructure, without a cessation of war that will destroy the infrastructure again after it is repaired ?
Ukraine should surrender now, and save its people ! Forget about NATO and stop fighting their PROXY war ! ๐ฑ๐ญ!
Ukraine waiting on more aid to do what๐?? Make the situation worse?… United snakes are just using them n clownskey can't see that. They have no hope left how the hell can u allow another country to dictate how to run your country n fight others
The Rothschild poked the wrong bear
Zelesnkyy : Give me more money so we can stop this!
Putin the criminal for collapses of world order voice of ๐ฎ๐ณ tamil
Brawo Russia
Thanks to Nato Ukraine, it is screwed
Russia need to surrender
