This is the new "Republicans are concerned" but ultimately don't do anything about their "concern" it's now "Trump is frustrated" Hmk, sure, Lmao. I'm sure he's big mad, so mad he is doing nothing about it and will just sit being "Frustrated" while giving Russia another couple of months to "do the right thing" as he's super frustrated!

The world has to see this. We cannot stop turning a blind eye to this daily terror that Russia commits on the Ukrainian population. It is targeted and systematic attacks on civilians without any military purpose.

We pray for the survivors and mourn for those that have died today.

🇺🇦 Zelensky on the Russian attack on Kryvyi Rih:

"These are not humans, just scum. There are no proper words for these Russian bastards. These attacks are no accident—Russia knows exactly what they are targeting. They promised the U.S. to protect such sites, yet their words always end with missiles"

Zelensky criticized the U.S. Embassy’s response to the Krivyi Rih attack:

"Such a strong country, such a strong people – yet such a weak reaction. They’re even afraid to say ‘Russian’ when talking about the missile that killed children."

This was the American response BTW to Russia lobbing a missile on children.

They're so terrified of Russia they can't even mention them by name.

President Volodymyr Zelensky on Sunday lamented the lack of a US response to Russia’s refusal to agree “a full, unconditional ceasefire” as two people were killed in Moscow’s latest aerial bombardment.

Russia mounted a “massive” missile and drone attack on Ukraine that also wounded seven people, Zelensky said, warning that Moscow was stepping up its aerial attacks.

Ukraine has agreed to an unconditional truce in the more than three-year-long war proposed by the United States but Russian President Vladimir Putin has refused to do so.

“We are waiting for the United States to respond. So far there has been no response,” said Zelensky.

Russia claimed the capture of a village in Ukraine’s Sumy region in a rare cross-border advance, but Ukraine branded that as “disinformation”.

Earlier, Russia “launched a massive nationwide attack on Ukraine using ballistic missiles, cruise missiles and drones”, said Ukraine’s first deputy prime minister Yulia Svyrydenko.

Zelensky said “the number of Russian air attacks is increasing”, which he said proved that “the pressure on Russia is still insufficient.”

Zelensky Slams US Lack of Response to Putin Truce Rejection

The russian oil market has collapsed, as prices are in the low 50's per barrel over there. I see articles saying that the oil companies aren't making a profit when spot prices are lower than $60 or so per barrel. But i'm sure that Ukraine can help Russia figure out which refineries should be shut down.

Here's an article for reference.

It's apparently $64 in the US. But in Russia, where wages are much lower, that could be also much lower, so I guess they're still selling at a profit, albeit a small one.
