Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has said the death of Yevgeny Prigozhin – the Russian mercenary leader whose plane crashed weeks after he led a mutiny against Moscow’s military leadership – shows what happens when people make deals with Russian leader Vladimir Putin.

As Ukraine’s counteroffensive moves into a fourth month, with only modest gains to show so far, Zelensky told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria he rejected suggestions it was time to negotiate peace with the Kremlin.

“When you want to have a compromise or a dialogue with somebody, you cannot do it with a liar,” Volodymyr Zelensky said.

    Cute how you think liberals will eventually agree.

    Also cute that you think Americans supported the Mujahadeen, and not just the US military without consulting the public, or liberals, who would not support them.

    Try harder comrade.

      Yeah… They’ll always side with fascism, as long as it’s their side doing it, it seems…

      You have no power, no ability to do change, and you still forget that’s the liberals who are in the government making these decisions. And guess what, the public gave their support!

      You will never learn, you are what I’m cautioning people against becoming.

        That first image isn’t a real clip from the movie, it’s just a good fake. The origin of the “brave Mujahedeen fighters” line is from Ronald Reagan himself.

        That said, you are right.
