He is a finn, what do you expect from him?
Continued use of the swastika in his military and a stubborn refusal to acknowledge how many Soviets the Finns starved to death in Leningrad while working with the Third Reich, presumably.

President Biden and I do not want to see conflict in the Middle East escalate into a broader regional war. We have been working on a diplomatic solution along the Israel-Lebanon border so that people can safely return home on both sides of that border. Diplomacy remains the best path forward to protect civilians and achieve lasting stability in the region.
...and that is why we've handed billions upon billions of dollars worth of military equipment to the side actively committing a genocide, and why I'm putting out a statement condoning the political assassination of one of the people who we would theoretically be working with to create peace in the first place.
Death, and I cannot emphasize this enough, to America.
Who could've guessed that trying to invade the world's most infamously uninvadeable region could've ended poorly for a combatant that has a smaller military than its opponent and has been having major logistics issues?
Fortunately for all involved it's not like there was any historical precedent for this being a bad idea.
I love this libertarian obsession with "true free markets" as if there has ever been or ever will be a market with no nation-states or major conglomerates putting their fingers on the scale for their own self interests. What a world it must be to live in where one is so high on idealism that they somehow miss how incredibly fucking worthless even considering such a thing is when a child could point out that would never occur.
The curvature of spacetime does wild shit to how you would expect physics to work. If you want to fall into a gravity well, you have to slow down or you'll just slingshot past it.
Who isn't racing out the door at 5pm? I trade labor for wages, I'm not sticking around for unpaid overtime just to make some investor who's never worked a day in his life even richer.
My favorite genre of journalism: other countries' journalists writing about the US the same way the US writes about their countries. I'm just sad they didn't dredge up some "America expert" who's never been to the US and doesn't speak English to call for mass balkanization of the country followed by conspiracy theory screeds for the extra flavor.

You won't be able to drive them on the road unless the DoT has done safety testing on that specific model of car. You can own one, you're just not going to be able to put plates on it or get it insured.
Presumably there are enough sane Ukrainian officials left to not want to wake up to nuclear hellfire.
While I wouldn't put it past Google/YouTube to do something as shitty as this, I think people are far too quick to assume foul play over the much more likely possibility that the world's largest video platform occasionally shits itself.
