“If partners tell us: “We’re giving you seven Patriot batteries tomorrow, but we have a request to you - can you not do this and that?”, then there’s something to talk about. But if we don’t have the batteries, don’t have air packages, and we’re being asked not to do something… then what do we have to talk about? Then everyone does whatever it takes to survive… I cannot believe and I think no one in Ukraine would believe a power as large as the United States military does not have a single Patriot battery to save infrastructure worth billions of dollars, as well as priceless Ukrainian lives.” - Ukraine’s foreign affairs minister @DmytroKuleba
@IAPonomarenko Half of the the US is being weak. They have this misconception that they will have russia as allies against china and thus they don't want to "humiliate or defeat them". They are wrong. The other half of the US is being led by russia assets.
@IAPonomarenko Dude, 100%. We need more real talk like this from public figures / politicians. Call it like it is, publicly. Name and shame.
@IAPonomarenko Funny for Kuleba to think that it can blackmail or shame USA into compliance.
@IAPonomarenko You cannot depend on other countries or else by definition you have lost your sovereignty.
@IAPonomarenko We wish you good fortune in your days ahead. Please do not call us again.
@IAPonomarenko History will not judge the Biden administration kindly.
