        Ukraine offered to help defend Iran’s neighbouring countries against drone attacks since they have experience with that. Also ukraine has issues with Israel as well, they are buying stolen ukrainian grain from russia.

          Iran is not attacking neighboring countries. They are attacking US military bases in those countries. It’s self defense. If those countries want to be US bitches, then they should reap what they sowed

            The fact that the US is an extremist authoritarian regime does not excuse the fact that Iran is an extremist authoritarian regime. Iran is gladly attacking gulf countries. They’ve been wanting to do that for decades and finally they have an excuse to do it.

            The sad part is that civilians are getting killed in this war between authoritarian narcissists.

            Not even remotely close to a valid response to what they said.

            Reread, every word.

            I mean, fine. Just saying what Ukraine offered. I don’t think zelensky betrayed anyone. Offering to help defend things is something else than bombing someone.

              Kinda sounds like Zelensky is doing what he needs to do to survive, and if that means allying with Israel then so be it, because he has his own country to deal with.
              And he’s right to do so. Zelensky’s job is to kick the Russians out of his country, he has to do whatever it takes to make that happen, and he has to put the lives of his citizens first. Yes it sucks but he has to stop the genocide in his own country.
              War is a terrible thing, leaders have to make terrible decisions.

                It’s insane that some people think Zelensky should make a stand against Israel. Like wtf. He has other priorities right now.

                Yeah I think he is doing excellent considering the situation. And he’s not even working with Israel I think considering they are fucking then over by buying stolen grain from Russia.

        Can’t imagine Ukraine would harbor terribly much sympathy for Iran given the tens of thousands of Shahed drones that have been bombarding their cities that were either made in Iran or based on Iranian drone designs licensed to Russia. They probably figure that if Iran was fine starting this by selling such weapons to Russia that were certain to be used on Ukraine, then turnabout is fair play. They have basically no economy in Ukraine so they’re desperate for any way to make a buck to put back into military production for fending off their gigantic neighbor, anyway.
