Shame on you! You demanded gratitude from a leader whose country is fighting for survival. You escalated a discussion that should have been about strategy and support, turning it into a public spectacle of humiliation. But in that moment, I saw something else. I saw Zelenskyj’s enormous courage. He did not bow. He did not flatter. He kept his head high. Although they tried provoke and humiliate him. While others in his position might have tried to appease, he stood firm—with dignity. A true leader. For his nation’s future. His people’s freedom. The very existence of Ukraine. And for a strong Europe. If he signs a deal on minerals without security guarantees, Ukraine risks losing not only its resources but its sovereignty. Yet despite standing on the edge of uncertainty, he is expected to show unwavering loyalty—to a person who demands a “thank you” for what Biden has done. This was not just another debate. It was a raw, unfiltered display of power and hypocrisy. A moment where everything we thought was true suddenly became a nightmare. And yet, in the midst of that, there was Zelenskyj. Unyielding. Courageous. A leader who refuses to be anything other than what his people need him to be. His fight is not just for Ukraine—it is for the very principle of what it means to stand up against oppression. And for that, I admire him. I beg all the European leaders, please unify yourselves. Quickly. The clock is ticking. Don’t wait for U.S They took another train. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦 Slava Europe 🇪🇺 Slava democracy 🕊️
What people need to get is this was all a set-up. Zelenskyy NEVER had intentions to sign. Was supposed to sign in Kiev. Then refused. Said he would sign in Munich. Was to meet after Vance speech. They met but he refused to sign and said he would sign if he could get a meeting at the White House. Rubio came back and made it happen. Then Zelenskyy had a meeting with Deep State Senators, did you see the pic? (Anybody recognize the pic from a pic in 2014 Ukraine after the coup? Same players minus the dead traitor McCain.) Then Zelenskyy was late to the WH. The disrespect started there. Zelenskyy had his arms folded, argumentative from the start. Notice Rubio during the Oval Office debacle? (Not a happy man. Realizes it was a set-up and he was played.) Then Zelenskyy makes the comment to JD about how since he’s not been to Ukraine, he doesn’t know what it’s like, because USA has the ocean, “but one day we will”. Folks that wasn’t a threat, that was a slip. Within hours, European heads commit to stand by Ukraine in their war. This is how the NWO gets their WWIII. This was completely Orchestrated.
136 countries offered assistance to the USA after 9/11. Cant remember any of them asking for their money back #justsaying
We should all stand up to the bullies. What is the difference between Trump and Putin?
If you just watched that little clip, you come away with one opinion, but if you know what occurred prior to that, you may have another. Prior to that clip, Ukraine received over $300 billion dollars without any conditions from the US. The US wants this stalemate war to end. Zelenskyy is demanding Russia to return the territories taken back to Obama’s administration and for Russia to pay Ukraine reparations of nearly one trillion dollars. With demands like this, how is Zelenskyy going to negotiate a peace deal?? Those are unrealistic terms for a Russian surrender. Zelenskyy expects the US to unconditionally back Ukraine against Russia. This is the reason for what happened in the Oval Office! Zelenskyy expects the US people to follow him into WW3! Without the US, he doesn’t have the cards to win. Why should the US back an unrealistic position? Without the US, Ukraine and Europe will be Russian.
It’s interesting how both Trump and Musk are behaving like Russian assets. If Putin could wave a magic wand and ask for his dream they are pretty much carrying it out. Gutting the US govt, increasing the income gap to the highest ever and to the point of civil war, removing USAID funding so that the only soft positive ”branding” the US had internationally stops, getting out of WHO and threatening to defund NATO, brazen lying and spinning the Russian narrative of blaming Ukraine for the war when they were invaded, agreeing to all of Putins demands for new borders, reelection demands to exchange Zelensky while pushing Moscows idea that he only has 4% approval when he is the uniting force for the resistance, agreeing to no peace keeping forces from neither the US nor Europe and saying that he still trusts Putin more than his own intelligence people. Repeating and spreading Russian disinformation and talking points at every turn. Dividing the US from Europe, Canada and other former allies. You can’t really come up with a more communist friendly scenario from a US president and all FOX and republicans are doing is bowing their heads and pretending that it’s all for the greater good because he is "putting America first" ...jeeez...
Please stop referring to the Russian invasion of Ukraine as a "war". It's not a war, Russia invaded an independent country and the Ukrainian people are fighting to retain that independence and their freedom. Any talk of "negotiation" with the invaders would involve giving up part of their country. If the Russians invaded Florida. or Cornwall, would you suggest that we let them keep that territory to avoid escalation of the conflict?
I recommend everybody to see the full 52 minutes of this meeting in the oval office in front of the media. Zelensky had a meeting with the cabinet of the US government and they all had a clear well prepared agenda (at least i hope it was well prepared). But what I saw was Zelensky trying to follow a completely different agenda. He tried to convince Trump that making a deal with Putin makes no sense. Instead he asked for securities like - fighting against Russia, if Russia breaks the deal. That is basically it. But this you should never discuss openly in front of the media, you should discuss this behind closed doors. That was his first terrible mistake. The second mistake was to offend JD Vance by saying "what kind of diplomacy" and that was exact the moment when everything escalated. Pls everybody watch the full 52 minutes before judging wrongly.
Sweeden only recently joined NATO because of the threat of Russia. When you and your country have invested in world peace as long as the United States of America--some 80 years--will you have made the investment in human blood sacrificed and combat logistics to take on such rhetoric. I grew up near Poulsbo, Washington where the Norwegian royal family visits regularly and expresses their thanks for America's strength and help. When Sweedish royalty do the same, perhaps we'll take your diatribe seriously. "Ana ugglor i mossen."
People coming to conclusion with few mins clips are the same people who are graduated through “University of Social Media”. One should watch the entire full 52mins of this meeting. Zelensky was clueless with the agenda of the meeting, he provoked the vice President by saying “what kind of diplomacy” and then Trump jumped in and things escalated from there on. On the first place Ukraine should have been Russia’s closest ally being a neighbouring country but choose west (Europian union+US) over Russia and now it’s noone but Ukraine themselves to be blamed at for the situation they are in.

21hThank you for this powerful post. The way Zelenskyj was treated was not just unfair—it was humiliating and deeply inappropriate. Demanding gratitude from a leader whose country is fighting for its survival is both cynical and disgraceful. This should have been a discussion about strategy, security, and solidarity, not a public display of power games and condescension. And yet, despite the provocation, Zelenskyj stood tall. Dignified. Unyielding. A true leader. His resilience in that moment was not just about Ukraine—it was a stand for every democracy that values freedom. Europe cannot afford to hesitate. The time for unity and decisive action is now.
