16k is like pretty average tbh, I’ve been told it could cost me 20-25k for getting out of Ukraine by car. The lowest one went down to 8k, which is long and by foot. Even this sum is impossible to afford for a lot of the regular people, though some manage to take gigantic credits and just never pay them because they’re not coming back ever.
Yep, full mask off moment.
“President of Ukraine Volodymir Zelensky responded to the electronic petition that requested to pay attention to actions and speeches of Odesa’s mayor Genadiy Trukhanov. Petition’s author, Rodion Burlatskiy, accused the city’s head of loyalty to the invaders, lack of desire to remove the monuments to Empress Katherine the second and Suvorov, sabotage of the decommunization process, returning the communist names to Odesa, removal of the names honoring Azov and other dead warriors, and ownership of Russian citizenship. The petition was signed by 25440 ukrainians”
"In response, Zelensky stated that “reviewing legality of Genadiy Trukhanov’s actions, putting him on criminal trial, revoking Ukrainian citizenship and removing him from the position he was elected to does not belong to the constitutional duties of the president of Ukraine” "
The extra funny thing is that in 2022 Zel was asked to do basically the same to the same exact guy back then, but refused to do it because “it is not within the president’s constitutional authority”
funny enough, this is the exact mindset I see here in Ukraine. People wanna fight till the “victorious end”, but few wanna volunteer, and the most outspoken nationalists are usually abroad or avoiding service one way or another.
