President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has emphasised that the speed of war ending directly depends on Ukraine?s support by the international community.

    Yeah. It’s disappointing countries just sat by and watched at that point. That’s what we all did when Hitler invaded Poland. In hindsight, wouldn’t it have been an incredibly wise move to immediately fight back at that point?

    People acted like Russia was somehow allowed to fly in Ukrainian airspace but nobody else could. In reality, planes defending Ukraine would have been the only ones with permission to be there. It’s shameful really.

      Ehhhh… France and Britain declared war on Germany in response to Poland’s invasion. That’s a far more direct response to the Poland issue than everyone has done for Ukraine in comparison.

      I think the example you’re looking for is when France/Britain did nothing to stop Nazi Germany’s illegal annexation of Czechoslovakia or Austria.
