Why are you not using the word invasion.. when it comes to Palestine.. Iraq.. Syria.. Libya.. Somalia..Vietnam.. etc..

[Mrasianpopmusic]

As a Chinese, I wonder what “western worlds” has to offer if we decides to go with “eastern worlds”

[randyo]

If you look on the map, the “western world” isn’t that big.

[CNHabs]

Only a handful of the countries aka the American allies have so far sanctioned Russia with most of the countries and world population staying neutral.

Why zelensky want to become hero..
If he know he is weak just accept it..

People who are dying, he should be accountable for that along with Russia.

He is mislead by us n west n now

Do not involved in war on other shoulder..

The Chinese is very correct in this case!!!

[saltytroopa]

This world might literally split into two.

We need to start building our military. We need to be able to protect ourselves and not rely on people to protect ourselves. Canada's military is as strong as Taiwan and Ukraine. Not good !

[TG-nxxe]

Relationship with the West, anything more to lose?

[Hassan-dl]

Dangerous and scary time we are living in

[TheRealRubikscube]

They always say never let any of that get into the wrong hands. But the truth is. It always has been in the wrong hands since the start of civilization

[Nextraker]

This invasion would be similar to the USA invading Canada

[FoolOfATuque]

This really is on western businessmen. The result of years of outsourcing our manufacturing to autocratic regimes for higher profits.

[Teekles]

All the support flowing to Ukraine (food and aid) speaks much louder than the trolls yapping

[bodhranlowd]

This is the strategic opportunity of a life time to keep the east humble and subservient to the west for another 100 years.

[nadiabakri]

I can see now the gap between East and West getting bigger and bigger.

[Sky-usds]

The Western world should prepare to live on its own, nothing more! Do not like?

[jonny]

Sending weapons, that is more weapons than the ones that have been continually sent since 2013 or 2014 ish keeps a war going. Mediation has a chance to stop it. So, I wonder how much money US will spend sending weapons to Ukraine in April.

[Dimythios]

What did you expect that this was not going to happen???? Of course this was going to happen...
