Putin Invaded Ukraine But United The Whole World, Here Are 47 Of The Most Important Things That Have Been Done So Far
On 24th February 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine. In response to this unprovoked and unjustified war, countries across the world are condemning the attack and rushing to aid Ukraine and its people. The Western world and its allies have stepped up to assist this brave nation by providing military equipment and humanitarian assistance.
"Here in Ukraine, we will be repeating this over and over again: Russia’s war isn’t only about our country. This is about all of us. Because of Russian hybrid warfare, everyone who values freedom, democracy, and justice is a potential target," Nataliia Steblyna wrote in the Kyiv Independent, saying that we all should stand together and that even the smallest steps may be significant.
Inspired and touched by defenders fighting on the streets and outskirts of attacked cities, people are uniting like never before. From protests to cyberattacks to canceled sports and cultural events, thousands continue to help the Ukrainian government and civilians in any way they can.

every life is important, but Where is the support for Palestine? They have been going through worse than what Ukraine is facing for centuries, men, woman, children, have been blasted to pieces by the bombs, have been living in fear of eviction everyday, children, MERE TEENS have been arrested without any intervention of court or Justice, and now all of a sudden Ukraine is far more important. Ukraine is important. Very important. But what hypocrites are we when we pick and choose which war torn country to side with, and which one to ignore? How can we be so heartless so as to only acknowledge the Ukrainean peoples suffering when there are others who have been suffering worse for decades?

You are so wrong it’s pitiful. The N.W.O. which is comprised of the US government and NATO used US taxpayer money to fund 30 bio weapons lab throughout the Ukraine. There is a very large Nazi, yes real live Nazis that still say heil Hitler in the Ukraine parliament. George Soros, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and the NWO elite are working with said Nazis, yes, the real Nazis, to orchestrate a false flag operation with Russia in order to bring Russia down and carve up the spoils. Barack Obama and Joe Biden use our military to stage a coup d’état on the Ukrainian election in 2014. This is very well documented. Sadly, most people don’t pay attention to news unless it’s something stupid about the Kardashians. Never have I seen a young person or anyone in America really pay attention to serious world events. They’re too busy playing video games and stopping their heads with food or smoking dope. That is what will get you killed and that is about to get all of us killed! The Nazis in the Ukraine are working hand-in-hand with the New World order headed by George Soros, Barack Obama and his unsavory, illicit band of criminals call the US government/NATO. Remember, during World War II, Russia actually helped the United States defeat the Nazis! Yes it is truth. My family lived there at the time and some still reside in Eastern Europe! If you heard the female Ukrainian parliament member on television saying “we do not only fight for Ukraine, we fight for this new world order “she gave it away on live television! People, you have to pull your heads out of your asses. Whenever Soros is involved in anything and telling you to back someone, you know somethings wrong and you should be backing the other guy! The Russian slaughtered most of my family years ago, however, in this case, Putin is not the aggressor!Those Bioweapon Labs were working on genocide weapons for use against Russia’s people. There are 30 of them throughout the Ukraine. The DOD tried to scrub the documents from the website last week but there are several of us out here who possess copies of them and have already shared them with the proper authorities. It won’t be long before the entire truth comes out and the lid is blown off of all of this and the evil are brought down. You don’t have to fear Vladimir Putin! He is not attacking civilians, only bio weapons lab and military sites and trying to neutralize the threat against his people and his country. Putin refuses to accept American dollars for oil money just like Saddam Hussein, just like the dictators in the Middle East that American soldiers annihilated at the behest of the New World order. Anyone refusing to relinquish their nation sovereignty to the New World order or play their game had to be removed. Trump was easy. All they had to do was read the voting machines and stuffed ballot boxes by the millions which they did and which has been proven. Dinesh D’Souza movie 2000 mules highlights all of this has it on tape. It’s hitting theaters if it’s not already there. People, you have been fed a mountain of lies! Anytime George Soros tells you to back someone, you had better run the other direction because the biggest threat to the world into America is our own government who is orchestrating all of this in order to usher in their great reset/New World order take over. This is not my opinion, this is a fact. Go to Infowars and listen to Sean Stone Speak of these things. He just wrote a best selling book that is out that explains what is really happening in the Ukraine. Believe nothing that you see on the main stream media. They are paid to lie to you.

Not yet. A world war requires a significant number of countries from different geographic areas to declare war or act in a warlike way. Most of these countries have not 1)declared war or 2)sent military personnel to at in the name of their country to commit violence in their name. Providing aid and sanctions are not acts of war in themselves. The US sanctioned China for Hong Kong protests and those don't count.Both the French and Russians have provided fighter planes to India and that is not an act of war against Pakistan. Citizens committing acts of war against a foreign nation without the direction of their country don't count (15 Saudi 9-11 terrorist).

The country has shown time and again that it is an equal member of Europe, and he expressed his belief that Ukraine deserves to be a part of the EU.
"I believe that we, today, we're giving lives for the desire to be equal, as much as you are. We are giving away our best people," he said. "Nobody is going to break us. We are strong. We are Ukrainian."
"We have proven our strengths. We have proven that as a minimum we are exactly the same as you are," Zelenskyy added. "Prove that you are with us. Do prove that you will not let us go. Do prove that you indeed are Europeans."

EU Relaxes Entry Paperwork For Pets Travelling With Ukrainian Refugees
The tremendous courage of the President and citizens of Ukraine have inspired people, governments, and companies worldwide. There has been a massive outpour of support, with people mobilizing on social media, calling out false information, and getting together to aid Ukrainian civilians in the most meaningful ways.
Since the beginning of Russia’s full-scale invasion, more than half a million civilians have fled Ukraine. The EU estimates that up to four million people may try to leave the country and has relaxed its rules on refugees, saying that the member states will welcome them with "open arms".
BBC states that refugees are crossing the borders to neighboring countries to the west — Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary, and Moldova. Poland has so far taken in over 280K refugees and expects a further 50K to arrive every day. "Countries used to have time limits on how long refugees could spend in reception centers, but most are saying they are likely to waive them and that Ukrainians can stay in them for as long as they need to."

Governments also made essential and unprecedented decisions to assist Ukraine in its fight for freedom. From gathering resources to provide all possible help to agreeing on sanctions that are already weakening the Russian economy, even Switzerland has abandoned its historic neutral position on global wars to support Ukraine.
"Never since the second world war has the rights of one country been so violated by another. You cannot stand aside. To play into the hands of an aggressor is not neutral," the Swiss president, Ignazio Cassis, said. Switzerland stands in solidarity with Ukraine and hopes that sanctions will encourage the Kremlin to rethink its actions.

I would laugh, if it wasnt so depressing. What is happening in Palestine is now acceptable, whereas this is not? How can one be condemned and the other not? Why are the people of Palestine not supported in this manner when defending themselves, their lives and their property against attacks? Humanity is lacking in the world severely.
Other neutral countries such as Finland, Sweden, Austria, Ireland, and the Vatican also condemned the Russian war on Ukraine. Finland and Sweden, which are not part of NATO, announced they will send military aid to support the troops resisting an invasion by Russia.
"It’s the rebirth of a new Europe," Michael McFaul, a former U.S. ambassador to Russia, told NBC News. "It’s a historic shift. I think this will have major consequences moving forward for the future of Europe, for the future of the transatlantic alliance, for the future of NATO — just when all of those things were fraying."

Hackers from around the world joined the fight too by disrupting Russia’s digital infrastructure. The Independent reports that hacking groups such as Anonymous and the Cyber Partisans "have claimed responsibility for cyberattacks on Russia’s banks, state broadcaster RT, and a Belarusian rail network reportedly used to move troops from Russia to Ukraine."
"DDoS alone will not bring down a regime", one German Anonymous splinter group said, but "Putin, who is using hacker squads and troll armies against Western democracies, is getting a sip of his own bitter medicine". Their goal is to obtain information and "keep the Russian IT apparatus busy" so that Putin's hacker troops "cannot do anything in Ukraine or the West".

The lead singer of Ukrainian folk rap group Kalush Orchestra (who are representing their country this year), Oleh Psiuk, told Sky News that their song has become an "anthem for Ukraine".
"This song which we have created [Stefania], it's the anthem for Ukraine and everybody is singing it," he said. "I think that the aggressor country must be banned from everywhere, from all the possible parts of the economy and politics because the people from their country don't realize that their country is aggressive and the aggressor for all the world, not only for Ukraine."

The government orded for special lessons to be held at schools, so the kids get explained what exacrtly "our heroic soldiers" are doing in Ukraine. Brainwashing us Russians since we`re young. Protestors all aroung Russia are getting arrested and beaten up. If you`re trying to donate to Ukrainian funds, your card gets blocked.

For all those who are discussing Palestine here, and who, just like anti vaxxers, refuse to believe in the truth, this is for you: You may support ISREAL because you believe Palestine is the aggressor. Amnesty International has done a long investigation and proven that ISREAL is the aggressor. You may continue to blind yourself to the truth by still supporting ISREAL, but remember this: Let’s say that Palestine WAS the aggressor. Even in that case, do you believe innocent worshipers of Al Aqsa mosque (who were simply praying), non violent protesters, and children holding stones should be killed? That schools with little children in them, and hospitals and relief centers should be bombed? You keep talking about Hamas. If Hamas is the problem, deal with HAMAS. Keep innocents and children out if this. You are right to defend yourself from, and attack Hamas, but what right do you have to attack, kill, evict, imprison without trial, and torture innocent civilians, when Hamas is your problem?

While I'm very relieved the world is supporting Ukraine, I can't help but feel that the sanctions, military and financial aid, aren't going to stop Putin. He seems very happy to continue his invasion, and seems hell-bent on getting what he wants. And if he does - if he takes Ukraine and installs his own government - then what? A lack of global action against him, in this scenario, almost makes the world complicit, in my opinion. I don't have a military mind, and I know my opinion doesn't count for much, but the thought of him succeeding in taking Ukraine troubles me a great deal.

While buing groceries you can check on barcode of product, especially look at numbers under the code. If numbers start from 460, 461... to 469 this jeans that product is made/packed in Russia. Belarusian products start with 481 (but i'm not 100% sure with this!). This works in Poland, but I guess it's universal.

When this is over, I trust return of Russia to the world economy will be permitted only when certain conditions are met:- 1. War trials for all involved in starting this war 2. Institution of a real democratic government 3. Continuing repayment to Ukraine to repair the damage 4. Compensation for all Ukrainian deaths and injuries The above to be funded as much as possible by the oligarchs who benifitted so much under Putin. And I think it is about time Europe demanded the return of Kaliningrad.

yeah... because russian athletes, artists, business, factories, citizens are the ones to blame and to shame. In fact the invassion is 100% their fault and desicion, right? Let's ruin all russian's lifes! Give them every reason to hate the rest of the world. Treat them like good Hitler treated Jewish people. Start bullying, deporting, stealing, every russian people you can find. Very well done world. You should be proud.

I would imagine most rational folks would understand this is hapoening to them because of their leaders actions and direct their anger/hate at them. The ones that use thisbas a reason to hate the world will generally be those that already hated us. And it is absurb to compare this to how Hitler treated Jews. Until countries start rounding up Russians, putting them in camps and killing them there is no comparison. It is totally resonable not to do business with an authoritarian gov't that is invading another country. If Russia persists then the world will need to open their doors to Russians that want out but we can't keep funding Russian aggression.

Putin is so f*****g desperate and always has been to be seen as this manly, strong, man....... how f*****g strong and manly is it to kill women, children, and unarmed civilians for a totally unnecessary war whilst you sit far far away just giving out the orders and knowing full well you're never going near the front lines yourself until it's 'safe' for you? Sounds pretty f*****g cowardly to me. Good luck to any Ukranians, sadly you're gonna need it.... and I don't have any experience of l iving under any of the other current leaders around Europe, but I would caution you to not trust a word that comes of Boris Johnsons mouth when he says he's with you.. because what he really means is your president shamed him and the rest of them all into action, action they weren't going to take if he'd not.

I'm afraid Russia will outlast all of this. "The West" as it is called, has a notoriously short attention span, and an even shorter tolerance for war. A couple of weeks from now Katie Price will get another lip filler or Kim Kartrashian will flash her twat on Instagram and the distractions will return us to our normal state - distracted and uncaring because it is not happening on our doorsteps.

I was thinking the same thing. It's wild how the US will do spend millions helping fight a war on another continent... but the ppl south of us are fighting a war amongst themselves... fueled with guns THAT WERE BROUGHT INTO THEIR COUNTRY FROM THE US! And we can't even open our doors for them when the war that's going on is a war that is our fault. We are the main consumers of the drugs they're fighting over. We're the ones allowing them to transport weapons into their country and we're not allowing the innocent ppl so deal refuge in our home despite its being 85% our fault it's even going on.

This is incredible. Absolutely incredible. In the digital age we don't even have to leave our countries to help send aid to other countries in peril now. 60% of the damage can be done in seconds just by pressing a few buttons on an app n making a phone call. Hopefully it helps the ppl on the ground fighting against the Russians and gives them the advantage they need to overpower the Russians. Imagine if things were like this back during WW2.... if we had the ability to speak to ppl thousands of miles away in seconds and to post what's going on straight to the rest of the world. These are times where the internet is a beautiful beautiful thing. I mean, s**t you've even got Elon musks dusty, greedy ass helping out.... that's a feat in itself.

In all the horror that is entailed here, it is fantastic to see a united front from so many people in so many countries (including some really brave Russians) protesting, standing against Putin, supporting Ukraine in every way possible. Maybe we have finally learned from history, and we will not let another war happen.

I'm so glad someone has bothered to reflect on their own governments actions in other countries! so many of us in Asia and Middle East are afraid of the US, like Eastern Europeans are afraid of Russia or South East Asians of China. You big powers are literally the same but don't see it. As citizens of such countries you have privalidge and power. I hope you realize that and elect people who aren't as horrid as Putin or Trump.

A Russian here. We`re been told this is not war, but a special military operation. We`re been told we`re not invading Ukraine, but protecting ourselves and Donbas from Ukrainian fascist. It`s all just lies, lies and more lies. We`re told that the Russian military attacks only Ukrainian military bases, warehouses and other important military locations. But we know from our indepentant media (wich gets banned here by the government), that civilians are getting injured and killed. It`s just so f*cked up. The government orded for special lessons to be held at schools, so the kids get explained what exacrtly "our heroic soldiers" are doing in Ukraine. Brainwashing us Russians since we`re young. Protestors all aroung Russia are getting arrested and beaten up. If you`re trying to donate to Ukrainian funds, your card gets blocked. Most Russians, at least those whose mind hasn`t been poisoned by Putins propoganda, hate Putin and never wanted for anything like this to happen.

For all those who are discussing Palestine here, and who, just like anti vaxxers, refuse to believe in the truth, this is for you: You may support ISREAL because you believe Palestine is the aggressor. Amnesty International has done a long investigation and proven that ISREAL is the aggressor. You may continue to blind yourself to the truth by still supporting ISREAL, but remember this: Let’s say that Palestine WAS the aggressor. Even in that case, do you believe innocent worshipers of Al Aqsa mosque (who were simply praying), non violent protesters, and children holding stones should be killed? That schools with little children in them, and hospitals and relief centers should be bombed? You keep talking about Hamas. If Hamas is the problem, deal with HAMAS. Keep innocents and children out if this. You are right to defend yourself from, and attack Hamas, but what right do you have to attack, kill, evict, imprison without trial, and torture innocent civilians, when Hamas is your problem?
