If Putin doesn't want war he should bring his army home

A message to Putin : What goes around comes around.

'Sowing unrest'

My dude you have been at war with this country, a war you started, for over 2 years. What more 'unrest' is there to sow?

[cpk]

Why is Putin's response like that of a whining child?

[HildaSeun]

Zelensky chose the exact words.
"War back home to Russia".

Ukraine took a page out of Putin's playbook and took their old capital city. The irony is delicious.

Putin to Gerasmiov: „where are our troops?“
Gerasimov: „in front of the capital“
Putin: „of Kiev?“
Gerasimov: „no, Moscow“

Russia has now the second best army in Russia 😂

This was genius. They focused so much on conquering Ukraine they left themselves wide open. Take tons of land dig in negotiate to trade land.

[TheLovescream]

This is such a loss of face for Putler, he must be fuming behind closed doors.

Constant whining about everything, committing one warcrime after the other and now this. What a strong man indeed.

[sergiyrospysdiyenko]

West should have stopped Russia in Moldova, Chechnia, Georgia and Crimea. Now its West responsibility to stop Russia in Ukraine!

[Awesomefishingvideo-bbtf]

If Putin doesn't want war he should bring his army home, how do you think ??

Vladimir the Fool, Russia's last tsar.
