Zelenskyy. "Imagine dressing down your psychotic neighbor who keeps sending his dogs to scare .."

[Budi]

The way this man talks at Putin is something else. The nuances are untranslatable. Imagine dressing down your psychotic neighbor who keeps sending his dogs to scare your kids and crap on your lawn. That's the tone here.

@maxseddon
Zelensky to Putin: "Good Lord, what do you want? Leave our land. If you don't want to leave now, sit down with me at the negotiating table. But not from 30 meters away, like with Macron and Scholz. Sit down with me and talk. What are you afraid of? We're no threat to anyone."

1. Putin has no desire to negotiate for anything

He wants all of Ukraine under his control. Period.

I truly admire Zelenskyy's courage and intellect.

3. Yup. All Pootie wants is for the rest of us to blink and roll over. In honor of Zelensky and

the people of Ukraine let's push back hard on Pootie-Poot.

6. I think Z knows that

But he also knows how it looks on TV, and this is a line that is very hard for Putin to counter without showing all his cards.

7. Good Point

Which is why Putin is trying so hard to limit media in Russia. Which isn't really working.

Reminds me of this line from Star Wars.

"The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers." - Princess Leia

24. Exactly

You don't "dress down your psychotic neighbor" if you are trying to get him to the table.

15. It's already laid waste

Watching Hitler 2.0 and doing nothing.

[onecaliberal]

23. Irreparable Harm. I wish everyone was forced to read the book.

[relayerbob]

9. He's simply trying to humiliate and piss Putin off

[Crunchy Frog]

12. He also wants it depopulated of Ukrainians.

It makes sense for him to allow mothers and children to leave, most never to return. They can regard the remaining population as combatants and slaughter them en masse, while leveling the cities.

Then when they finish they can move in Russians, and no more Ukraine.

13. It will be unlivable after those reactors explode and kills everyone.

2. I do love this man.

I hope he and his country survive this.

[madaboutharry]

4. He is giving a Master Class in leadership.

The Ukrainian people are blessed to have his leadership in this moment.

[Wingus Dingus]

5. The right person, at the right time.

He has navigated all of this so skillfully.

[trof]

18. The right person, in the right place, in a really bad time.

He is...THE MAAN!

10. Whatever Putin is given will not be enough.

[Lonestarblue]

14. Megalomaniacs never have enough. Putin's delusion is that he can rebuild the USSR.

He’a wrong, but how many people have to die until the world shoves his delusions down his throat? I’m sure Zelensky has enraged him, and he will be out to raze Ukraine completely as retaliation.

[Brainfodder]

11. Considering what has been attacked now, that someone would still try negotiating, HUH?

[Cha]

16. Rt TY!

[Raine]

17. I love this guy! 🥰 💙 💛 🌻 nt

19. This why extra NATO troops are being put on the borders.

No telling what this insane person will do next.

[Gordcanuck]

20. My kingdom for a jet (or 2)

NATO having given every other armament now won’t give the jets to finish off the Russkie supply lines. The boneheads making this fearless decision have never heard of lend-lease, used in WWII to arm opponents of Hitler’s oppression in Europe.

[Texaswitchy]

22. President Roosevelt was really brilliant to think that up.

England really needed those old destroyers.
