Armstrong Economics “My source (and good friend) told us that they delivered weapons (Kalashnikov automatic rifles, hand grenades, and various other military weapons) in crates… they set them on the streets and tell the children or the adults or anyone just to take them… They are also urging them to make Molotov cocktails to throw at the Russians. They have let all dangerous prisoners out of the prisons and armed them too. But the prisoners are robbing the citizenry by burglarizing raping and stealing these weapons… they have no interest to protect a state that put them in prison in the first place. The violence towards the citizens is not coming from the Russians but from armed Ukrainian criminals. Are you starting to see the full picture?” – JBW
Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Ukraine’s president, has acknowledged that his military is not able to ward off Russia’s invasion and is asking citizens to participate in the war. In 2022, world leaders use social media to speak to their citizens. “We will give weapons to anyone who wants to defend the country. Be ready to support Ukraine in the squares of our cities,” Zelenskyy tweeted, indicating that he is preparing for an all-out on-the-ground war.
Before Russia launched their attack, Ukraine’s president stated, “If they [Russia] attack, if they try to take our county – our freedom, our lives, the lives of our children – we will be defending ourselves… As you attack, it will be our faces you see, not our backs.” Zelenskyy also recently reported that his calls to Russia have gone unanswered. Negotiations are no longer an option.
