Politicians want to talk while innocent people die.

Whenever Putin spoke to Biden about this, he just told Biden what he wanted to hear. Then when leaving the room, smirked and said "we got this, piece of cake".

Sanctions on Russia is like throwing salad at a bear.

[drebue]

Putin is not stupid, this was the perfect timing: Ukraine has not joined the NATO yet and the US has an impotent, senile leader who won't retaliate. Time works against them, so he had to act.

Could just imagine how much of a disaster this war would be if the U.S. got involved looking at how badly he screwed up a simple withdrawal in Afghanistan.

Isn’t It ironic US and UK are talking about international law and Ukrainian sovereignty, while they did the opposite in Iraq, Libya etc The world should hold US/UK accountable for Iraq, Libya, etc and crimes against humanity

The U.S. is “now importing 800, 000 barrels of oil, (a day), from Russia, ” but that could have been prevented if the Keystone XL pipeline hadn’t been cancelled. In January Russia supplied 20 million barrels of oil. @ current prices, (about $90 dollars). $1, 800, 000, 000 in one month. That money could be right here, helping the US and Canada, instead of funding Russia.

“To ask Russia to stop” bro, shut up. We’re already the laughing stock of the world.

[RandyMarshSP]

Biden being a weak leader makes this situation so much worse

[MXTuber]

lol "ask Russia to stop", have we said pretty please with a cherry on top yet?

[jamesnap]

Putin just went on Russia national TV he wanted to thank the American voters for putting Biden in the White House and giving him this opportunity

[Vws]

Thank you everyone who voted for Biden. This is wonderful.

[Swirvine]

For all those who couldn’t handle a “mean is what we get....thanks

[babygirlbeltz]

What a joke this nation has become in a year.

[kyletownsend]

I don’t think Biden really cares too much

[noway]

Putin should have painted BLM on the tanks and he would have had 100% support from the United States media

[dougaylward]

Biden isn't even throwing all the salad.

[efrenrodriguez]

Well, if that condemnation is as tough as Biden's condemnation of criminals in this Country, I'm sure Putin is shaking right now.

[jitlv]

Biden is too tired to even care. Go back to bed Grandpa!

[Marshmallow_Trees]

Thank God we here in the US can count on our own leaders to, in the face of all-out war, can stand bravely and ask…ASK.
Ask Russia to “Stop.”
Ask.
