Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made an appeal for assistance to Congress on Wednesday. A banner over the stage blared "For a world without Nazism" when Russian President Vladimir Putin held a pro-war rally last week. For Russia. This claim is used by Russia to justify war.

Sometimes I smile and sometimes I laugh. Zelensky said of the absurdity of the charge, speaking through an interpreter, that it was as if it was a joke. He wondered if Putin believed this. I believe that Putin is in an information bubble. I think this is an information Bunker, and if it is so powerful, that he really thinks Ukrainians are neo-Nazis, then this is a laughable statement for me. He said that many questions emerge about what else he is capable of doing for the sake of his ambitions. It can be an information bubble that will exert pressure.

This is happening in Ukraine. Who is the Nazi? _____ The city of Mariupol, the last EU diplomat to leave the besieged Ukrainian port, is joining the list of places destroyed in wars of the past.
