What Zelensky said in Ukrainian about preemptive strikes was real. How an English speaker is hearing the translation is not.

> I realise you’re mindlessly repeating cheesy propaganda tropes.

Do you actually know what you're talking about, or are you just insulting me on principle? There are various kremlins, most of which are museums but one of which is the working office of the president. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Kremlin_Palace

> Zelensky threatened Russia with nukes. Now you know this for a fact.

Please, do tell how Zelensky threatened Russia with nukes during a speech that mentions a desire for NATO membership (which Ukraine has not been shy about) but never expresses a desire for nuclear weapons.

So you're going to continue to pretend you missed the link I provided you with, for a fourth time now and instead focus on an iffy refutation of an irrelevant translation?

You're not fooling anyone with this.

Tell me, where in the actual quote did he say he wanted Ukraine to have nuclear weapons?
