Here's a news report: https://edition.cnn.com/2022/02/26/europe/ukraine-zelensky-e...

I'll translate the quote to your native language for you: Мне нужны боеприпасы, а не поездка

I apologise if it's not exact, I used Google Translate.

that's very presumptious of you

> Here's a news report

are you saying that CNN knows about the conditions and preferences of Ukrainians better than Ukrainians in Kiyv?

"You might want to stop taking [CNN] as your news source."

I'm saying CNN knows more about the conditions and preferences of the Ukrainian people than you do. I've yet to see a shred of evidence for any of your insinuations.

delusional indeed, and a cowardly one

I'm yet to see you learn proper English. When shall I expect you arriving in Kiyv to volunteer straight into the war trenches?

When you prove to me that Ukraine wants a peace agreement that involves Russia annexing the entire country to be their personal torture chamber.

Try again. Your post only suggests a slight majority of Kyiv residents want a "ceasefire." That's not "capitulation."

I'll let you know that I'm British so I'm familiar with news papers/sites putting up polls that tell the reader what they want the reader to hear so, just like you disregard sources, I disregarded this straw poll.

guess what, your post suggests nothing but cnn and Zelensky opinions, the latter is legally expired as a president, by the way.

> I'm British so I'm familiar with news papers/sites putting up polls that tell the reader what they want

Exactly my point, you're a delusional member of the delusional society that somehow believes that the poll in Kiyv isn't indicative of the people's preference not to exchange their lives for land anymore.
