La Russia non è l'Unione Sovietica e la Germania non è la Germania nazista... anche se la Russia invade altri paesi, come faceva allora...

Our weapons are killing russians again and that only 80 years after the last time, we havent learned anything

[@stephenbrand5661]

Yeah, your weapons are being used by Ukrainians to defend themselves from an illegal invasion and occupation. Germany is acting as part of NATO and the European Union along with the rest of the world's great democracies to help stop Russia's aggression, which just killed a 9 year old little girl. If you can't see the difference between then and now it's because you choose to be blind.

Loro stanno liberando le persone dai Nazisti.

[@Harrock]

Our weapons are protecting Ukrainian citizens and all European citizens …how about that ?

[@user-gl5pw6ey7y]

Non vedo nessuna protezione per le popolazioni e poi il Nazismo sconfitto 80 anni fa salva solo gli interessi Americani.

[@jamesmorrison4976]

You haven’t learnt anything as a German to prevent genocide right next to your house. This time: the Russians are the invaders, murderers and rapists in Ukraine and you coward just show how spineless you are.
