🇺🇦 ZELENSKYY'S MESSAGE TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has delivered a direct and deeply serious message to Americans: If the United States officially sides with Russia, Ukraine will not be able to win this war. We will not be able to withstand it. Zelenskyy expressed hope that Donald Trump would stand with Ukraine or, at the very least, maintain a neutral position rather than support the aggressor. He also addressed the continuing restrictions on Starlink, stressing that the system's full functionality has still not been restored. Zelenskyy said he hoped Trump would reconsider his decisions, which he described as mistakes that would benefit neither Ukraine nor the United States. One of his most alarming statements concerned American intelligence. According to Zelenskyy, only the United States possesses the intelligence capabilities Ukraine needs to detect Russian ballistic missile launches in time. For three days, Ukraine did not receive that information. These are not abstract diplomatic disagreements. They concern the ability to protect Ukrainian cities, intercept incoming missiles, and save civilian lives. Ukraine is not asking America to fight its war. Ukraine is asking America not to help Russia win it. The choice facing Washington is not simply between supporting Ukraine and remaining neutral. It is also about whether the United States will continue standing for the principles of sovereignty, freedom, and resistance to aggression. Ukraine has been fighting for its survival. It must not be abandoned to the country trying to destroy it. 🇺🇦 STAND WITH UKRAINE.

Two uncivil guys in the Oval Office harassed the honest hero with blatant lies. Trump and Vance: you should thank President Zelenskyj and the Ukrainian people for defending GREAT AMERICAN values with their own blood. Please take heed, and stop running the errands of Mr. Putin!
