Zelensky Chastises Citizens for Dancing and Drinking During War
Breitbart ^ | 08/18/2023 | KURT ZINDULKA

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has urged his citizens to not party it up while the country is at war after footage from nightlife in Kyiv has gone viral on social media.

In a video address to the nation, President Zelensky said that anyone who is not actively fighting the war against Russia should be using their energy to help the war effort in other ways, rather than drinking and dancing in nightclubs in Kyiv.

“Warriors from the frontline who come to the rear cities deserve to see and feel that these are rear cities. That people live there, remembering that there are warriors there, that our warriors here in Donetsk and other directions are fighting for Ukraine, giving their lives for Ukraine. Freedom and independence are not gained by someone there… at the front,” he said per state media Ukrinform.

“This is a common national cause of all those who are fighting and working for victory. Everyone is at war. Ukraine is at war. And those who are not fighting on the frontline must help fight. Not in bars, not in clubs, not by street racing or some kind of ostentatious consumption, but by helping the warriors in a very specific way.”

"...Zelensky Chastises Citizens for Dancing and Drinking During War..."

Yeah. Bad optics, don't you know.

Wasn't there a thing recently where they showed video of a mall in "war-torn" Kiev, where it looked like any mall you might find in a peaceful state (excluding malls in California or Illinois) where people are just causually going about their business, shopping, eating in the food court...

I guess playing the piano with something other than your hands is discouraged now.

Yup. I really think the world needs for Ukraine to lose. I think the world will be a better place when every single military intervention that the west and the CIA and the marxist driven western leadership is behind, fails.

I would feel safer walking around in Kiev than Philly.
My proximity enemy aren’t Russians.

Did he say anything about buying expensive properties in Switzerland and Spain? Or is that only OK for he and his friends to have fun? He say anything about his wife taking expensive shopping trips in Europe?

He’s got a problem with those young people going to a pool party and enjoying life while they can, like he hasn’t been getting any since Vlad invaded.

Frankly.

I am not in the R-U Angry Mob on FR.

But I remember in 2006, when there were many a pro-illegal alien rallies in the US, there were zillions of Mexican flags.

The right, for once, got the upper hand on that skirmish.

Same thing here.

The right, for once, got the upper hand on that skirmish. . The optics were terrible for the left. After the message got out, there were almost NO Mexican flags.

Same thing here.

The people of Kiev should join Mrs. Zelensky on her next Paris shopping spree.

Not sure how anyone actually believes they can defeat the Russian Army.
