President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has called on Ukraine’s partners to create a legal framework for the use of frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine.

Source: Volodymyr Zelenskyy on X (Twitter)

Quote: “The decision to use frozen Russian assets to support Ukraine will be an entirely just and legitimate response to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. It will send the right message to all would-be aggressors around the world: attacking another state does not pay off; it makes the aggressor pay. I encourage partners to move quickly on relevant legal frameworks. This year, we must achieve tangible progress toward using frozen Russian assets for the benefit of Ukraine. We firmly rely on G7 leadership on this matter.”

      Are you going to call me “woke” next?

      Why would I do that when you’re clearly a reactionary bootlicker who thinks that Russian imperialism and genocide of indigenous peoples in service to a violently anti-LGBT autocracy should be enabled? You’re as far from ‘woke’ as it gets.

        All I said is that it’s laughable to call what’s happening in Ukraine a genocide when it’s compared to what “Israel” is literally doing right now. You seem to have a whole secret agenda you think I’m pushing. I’m literally trans and gay and sick of watching you fuckers use our persecution to excuse your fucking crimes.

          “Only one genocide can happen at a time!”

          You seem to have a whole secret agenda you think I’m pushing.

          Secret? No, I don’t think it’s secret in the least. You think that it’s okay to genocide Ukraine, because US bad. You haven’t tried to hide it at all.

          I’m literally trans and gay and sick of watching you fuckers use our persecution to excuse your fucking crimes.

          I would think that if you’re trans and gay, you would find Russia having drawn up a list of LGBT activists to murder after the initial invasion to be more concerning, but as you don’t care about Ukrainians being genocided, I suppose it makes sense that you don’t care about Ukrainian LGBT folk being genocided either. Props for consistency!

              I generally feel the need to lay out the full vileness implicit in their arguments for anyone reading, but you’re right that it’s a pointless endeavor.

                You’re just a smug shithead who feels comfortable erasing the opinions of minorities if they don’t agree with you.

                Literally gatekeeping being trans by if we agree with US foreign policy. Fuck you.

                  Never denied that you’re trans. Just pointed out how casually you accept the genocide of LGBT folk. Never erased your opinion. In fact, all I’ve done is highlight it.

                  It’s not my fault that you’re uncomfortable with seeing your own views under open daylight.

                    I don’t accept it at all, the US literally makes the conditions for LGBT people worse in ‘enemy countries’ by putting up the facade of support for LGBT people as the excuse for its actions.

                    You’re literally making things worse by using our rights and existence as a political football.
