Volodymyr Zelenskyy urges allies to stop just ‘watching’ amid North Korea threat
Ukrainian president calls on countries to step in before troops sent to Russia by Pyongyang reach battlefield
Ukraine’s president urged allies to stop “watching” and take steps before North Korean troops deployed in Russia reach the battlefield, while the army chief said his troops were facing “one of the most powerful offensives” by Moscow since the full-scale war began.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy raised the prospect of a pre-emptive Ukrainian strike on camps where the North Korean troops are being trained and said Kyiv knows their location. But he said Ukraine can’t do it without permission from allies to use western-made long-range weapons to hit targets deep inside Russia.
“But instead … America is watching, Britain is watching, Germany is watching. Everyone is just waiting for the North Korean military to start attacking Ukrainians as well,” Zelenskyy said in a post late on Friday on the Telegram messaging app.
This will start ww3.
Sorry but Ukraine is not my problem, no matter how the military industrial complex tries to push the narrative.
The rise of ductators who want to seize other countries' territories is your problem, and the sooner it's stopped, the better it is.
When will it become your problem? I think you're a US citizen so probably for you Lisbon (in Portugal, extreme West of Europe) could have Russian troops in it and you still wouldn't care, right?
Well, thinking this way has proven to be so wrong because sooner or later you will be the next in line.
"Czechoslovakia is not my problem" vibes. How did that end up?
Everyone tries to find some historical parallels.
There aren't any, completely different times and different situation.
It wouldn't start ww3, Russia is a joke power, they'd fold faster than superman on laundry day.
They are not serious people.
I think they absolutely will.
And Biden as well believes that and repeatedly said that he believes that.
All the red lines were talked over in private prior to 2022.
BTW, ww3?
We are literally infinitely more powerful than the worthless pieces of shit, and they will just keep needling us and trying to provoke responses elsewhere until we finally turn and stomp their balls in.
This is how they work 'escalate to deescalate', because they believe everyone else is weak, only they are truly strong, so everyone will always back down.
The nazis were exactly the same. We are still shamed for waiting as long as we did to do what was right.
We need to teach them a lesson in a language they understand. Pain and terror.
When was the last time the west won a war?
When's the last time Russia did?
We won both world wars.
China, otoh lost to Vietnam.
But I'm sure Russia is so confident, they should attack, let's see how this goes, should be quick.
We won because we were allied with Russia.
Now we can’t be poor farmers in decades long wars. And you think the west is gonna be able to beat a superpower? You think that rabid nationalism is gonna protect you from nuclear arms?
I'm sorry, what?
I wasn't planning on us going to war with China...
What do you mean "superpower"?
Because Russia is a fraction of the USSR, the smart and functional (read: less vodka-soaked) bits of which were ukraine, you know the ones who invented their nuclear and weapons technology and the reason why the T-14 and Su-57 haven't been used in combat, and why the Sarmat exploded on the pad.
Russia is just a rump state waiting to have its siberian half taken by China, either by force or by corruption.
On one hand, I really hope this is a government astroturfer, because I don’t want to believe someone is this ignorant. On the other hand, it would be really sad if someone is actually getting paid to post something so low effort and obviously whacko.
It's not nationalism.
Russia needs to be destroyed as a state.
I'm not saying we're the best or anything, I'm saying Russia is a threat to peace, so let's finish them now and move on.
They're this joke we just always laugh off and ignore, but why? They'll just keep biting our heels until we finally solve them once and for all.
In what way is Russia a threat to peace?
The moment they remove all troops from Ukraine and Crimea, we can talk about how they're a threat to peace.
Until then, they have to burn.
We’re not gonna talk about everything that happened since the Maiden Coup? The US controlled puppet government of far-right Nazis? The genocide of ethnic Russians for years in east Ukraine? The far-right government allowing establishment of NATO troops & missile deployments along the Russian border for years? The dictatorship reigning over Ukraine, which has banned rival parties, rival media, and refuses to hold elections?
You are repeating propaganda lines from bygone days.
US can't even build a hypersonic missile, after Iran, north korea China and Russia have already possessing them for years.
Our nukes are obsolete and so far US just started arsenal update. It's gonna take a lot of time, years.
Also - US capitalists sold out it's manufacturing to China, so what are u gonna do when China sanctions you? New genius capitalist idea - move manufacturing to India hahhahahhaha. Can't make this shit up. Build up India too.
Just remember - Biden knows the real situation, and he's sitting tight and not making too much noise.
Oh dude, oh dude.
You have no idea.
We need to go to war, we absolutely need to go to war.
You think we're as broken and pathetic as Russia is? Really?
We need to make an example.
They said they'd use nukes if Russian territory was violated.
They're Russians, all talk, no balls.
And I would never send troops.
But we should send bombers and erase any ground forces like we were having fun, they're a joke country and 50 years behind us, they cannot stop us.
End the war now, don't let it drag on, that is the larger risk.
