I think maybe the ones criticizing Zelensky for traveling around the world to meet with leaders of countries to secure aid and assistance in the war are forgetting that our own President may not be able to travel to many countries around the world due to his felon status. This article details the 38 countries that he may have trouble visiting due to being a 34 count felon.

Trump has blood on his hands JMO MOORussia targets energy infrastructure in overnight strikes, minister says
Ukraine says Russia has launched a fresh wave of attacks on several regions overnight.
Energy Minister German Galushchenko says Russian forces targeted Ukraine's energy and gas infrastructure in "massive missile and drone" attack.
Officials say the port city of Odesa in the south and Kharkiv in the east were subjected to waves of attacks that left energy infrastructure damaged and private homes on fire.
Galushchenko warns that power supplies could be affected and urges people to stay in shelters "as long as the danger continues".
An explosion was heard in Kharkiv at around 06:00 local time (04:00 GMT), according to Ukraine’s public broadcaster Suspilne.
'This is the 17th combined attack on Naftogaz infrastructure'
Ukraine's energy company Naftogaz has confirmed an overnight attack on its gas infrastructure – the 17th of its kind, according to the head of the company.
Roman Chumak says there are no reported casualties, but teams are still assessing the damage.
"We are doing and will do everything possible to ensure that the country has gas," Chumak says, praising staff for "their work in extremely difficult conditions".

He presents in a military uniform, isn't he is the Commander and Chief of armed services in Ukraine? Isn't Russia bombing the heck out of his country as we speak. I would think he would be rallying his troops, providing military guidance and reassuring or relocating citizens in harms way. Does he every visit the injured? Does he visit, have meaningful conversations and support the many soldiers maimed by the war?
I'll just add to that - there are many many Uk families still housing Ukrainian families with them. When the war broke out there was a call to see if anyone could take in Ukrainian families, and many many people did. Out of humanity. These are also big sacrifices to personal life, out of humanity and charity.It is indeed “‘ JUST YOUR OPINION’” & I am pleased that the majority of people on this thread do not agree with you.
I have not posted before as I tend to avoid political matters & out of my depth with ‘political debate’.
I will not enter into ‘clever’ ‘point-scoring’ dialogue here but am compelled to share my own personal experience here in the UK
1) We were all glued to our TV/Radio’s in February 2022, when Russia attacked Ukraine….in tears, watching the dreadful footage of the devastation wreaked on ordinary people. People just like ourselves.
2) Some in the UK opened up their homes to Ukrainian families evacuated from war zones.
A friend, retired & living alone in a good-sized property, did just this & took in two young ladies, each with a child of 5 or 6. They arrived with a backpack each. They had reluctantly left everything behind ( homes, belongings, elderly parents/grandparents/ extended family/pets) but most importantly their beloved husbands and Daddies to try & keep the children safe.
These beautiful people were traumatised….the children particularly unable to sleep & startled by any loud noise after spending weeks in a basement with bombs falling above.
This is something I have SEEN personally, not just read about.
The mothers spoke little English but were within weeks applying for jobs locally, to support themselves and the children enrolled in the village school.
The community rallied round, as funding from the government was typically rather slow to arrive & they had nothing.
My friend fed them, provided a safe space, helped with the necessary admin by driving them to the necessary offices ( some hundreds of miles away), clothed them from Charity shops, helped them learn English. All from her own pocket. She is by no means wealthy.
She did this out of love & compassion for fellow human beings.
3 years later, this Ukrainian family are still with her. Their menfolk are still fighting to defend their country.
They love their country & intend to return to Ukraine & reunite with their loved ones when it is safe to do so.
3) Another chilling experience….when I parked in a supermarket car park ( here in the quiet rural north of England) & realised the car parked alongside was riddled with bullet holes…..
…….In the back was a BABY SEAT…….On the dashboard a small Ukrainian flag.
4) We were again glued to our TV’s, again in tears on February 28th 2025, watching in disbelief the appalling attack on the Ukrainian President in the Oval Office.
USA is no longer a friend or ally to the UK.
We believe that the recent actions of President Trump have brought us all much closer to World War III.
This is MY OPINION
Poland must be very very worried IMO. They border Ukraine.Poland's Duda wants to lock in defence spending to be at least 4% of GDP
Adam Easton
Warsaw Correspondent
Polish president Andrzej Duda has said he wants to change the constitution to make defence spending of at least 4% of GDP mandatory.
Duda said he had submitted a draft amendment to the constitution to the parliamentary speaker to enforce the change.
Following Russia’s invasion of neighbouring Ukraine, Poland already spends more than 4% of its GDP on defence.
Last year, it spent the equivalent of 4.1% of its GDP on defence and plans to raise that to 4.7% this year.
Wave of Russian strikes kill at least 20 and injures dozens, officials say
Ukraine's President Zelensky urges more sanctions against Russia as he says the strikes show the Kremlin's goals "are unchanged".
Zelensky is 100% responsible. Trump offered him the pathway to peace. For at least a month, US officials and European leaders warned Zelensky what would happen. The day of the famous Oval office stunt, Congressional Representatives warned him that morning, not to try to negotiate a peace deal on national TV. He's a hard head, attention seeker, with no decorum.
A simple internet search reveals dozens of results showing Zelensky doing just that. Of note, he has never called veterans "suckers" or "losers".
Sorry, but "a manly man"? What is his record with attitudes and actions towards women? To me he is a petulant child full of hate and revenge for all those who helped impeach him. You could say Hitler was strong and protecting his country too ................ What it comes down to is morals and doing the right thing by others. Not just doing what you want for personal glorification. JMO MOO
