Ukraine’s answer should be: Death before dishonor! Or, as Winston Churchill said: “It is better to fight and die than to live as slaves.”

Or as Zelensky just said:

Do you still think that we are ‘one nation?’ Do you still think that you can scare us, break us, make us make concessions? You really did not understand anything? Don’t understand who we are? What are we for? What are we talking about?

Read my lips: Without gas or without you? Without you. Without light or without you? Without you. Without water or without you? Without you. Without food or without you? Without you.

Cold, hunger, darkness and thirst are not as scary and deadly for us as your ‘friendship and brotherhood. But history will put everything in its place. And we will be with gas, light, water and food … and WITHOUT you!

Yeah, that was a pretty good “F*** You!” to Putin.

There are plenty of criticisms people can make about Zelensky, but the guy was central to Ukraine not folding. That video he took in the streets of Kyiv early on, with his grim looking ministers/officials with him. "I am here. Sergey is here....", was up there with Bush and the megaphone after 9/11. Just exactly how you rally a country. And this is another great line.

The exact sentiment that made Russia so damn stubborn in WW2 is making those Ukrainians so damn stubborn now. And good for them.
