The Israel-Gaza war is “taking away the focus” from the conflict in Ukraine, the country’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has admitted.
He said this was “one of the goals” of Russia, which launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.
And he denied that fighting in Ukraine had reached a stalemate, despite a recent assessment to this effect by the country’s top military general.
Ukraine’s counter-offensive in the south has so far made little headway.
This has prompted fears of war fatigue among Kyiv’s Western allies, with suggestions of growing reluctance in some capitals to continue giving Ukraine advanced weapons and funds.
Never thought I’d agree with Zelensky about something related to Israel. Ukraine deserves aid much more than Israel.
I dont think Israel needs aid.
They are responding to an agressor just the same and doing a great job
The problem is they are also the aggressor and have been for decades.
Hamas and the Israeli government are both fucking awful.
Feels like a stretch to call carpet bombing civilians a great job.
Doing a great job at committing genocide
Israel absolutely does not need aid.
If they need more killing equipment, their ruling class can pay for it.
Indiscriminate bombing of innocent civilians, refugee camps, and hospitals, all while refusing to allow even basic aid, is not a “great job”.
