Yeah, right. Zelensky won't be able to "terrorize" Ukrainians by resisting an imperialist invasion, and Putin will turn the entire country into a concentration camp run by a Russian stooge, while systematically destroying Ukrainian identity (which is cultural genocide) and strip-mining Ukraine of anything worth stealing.

And when such trustworthy nations as China and Iran, both of whom have been providing weapons to Russia, offer a peace plan, anyone who's not an idiot will know that the plan rewards the aggressor and demands the capitulation of the victim. Just like China's "peaceful" intentions towards Taiwan, and their "peaceful" seizure of territory in the Philippines. And we all know what a force for global peace the mad mullahs in Iran have been, when they're not busy murderously suppressing anti-government demonstrations by their own people.

Then Putin will go on to similarly "liberate" the Latvians, Lithuanians, Estonians, Moldovans, Georgians, and if Trump sufficiently undermines NATO, Poland too.

Oh yeah, because it's Zelensky who is resisting this "imperialist invasion", right? It's him, his family, his friends who are dying in the meatgrinder.
Oh wait, no it is not, he is flying around the world giving speeches about freedom, democracy and all that stuff, all while Ukrainians are imprisoned in the country and kidnapped from the streets and sent to die.

and Putin will turn the entire country into a concentration camp

Tell me more about those concentration camps. Tell me about concentration camps in Crimea? Tell me about the ones in Melitopol? Tell me, how Ukrainians who are on liberated territories are forced to stay there, how they are not free to leave at any moment (in contrast to those who are on Ukraine controlled territories)? I would love to know more about it.

Why are you fedposting??? Btw I live in Taiwan and they don't actually want to invade. There's a thing called face and they need to deal with.
