It is not acceptable that a country illegally invades another, kills, rapes, destroys, ignores all human rights and remains with impunity... in the XXI century. The world cannot allow this, it is too barbaric!

A bit of truth To fight disinformation with information, here is another caricature, now inspired by Putin's
