I’m going to be brutally honest with you.
As a Ukrainian, I don’t know exactly what I feel about America’s strikes on Iran.
Let me explain.

As a person who believes in democracy and human rights, I am sure that a country like Iran should not be allowed to have nukes.
My people have seen firsthand what happens when a fascist dictatorship has nukes — this leads to unpunished evil and more violence, not less.

I also think there is no place for moral justification of Iran’s regime. It’s inhumane and evil.
Many Ukrainians were murdered by Iran’s drones and rockets supplied to Russia.
Iran’s current regime deserves a brutal destruction as much as Russia deserves one.

I also can’t help feeling bitter.
So this is what having the US as your ally looks like. Huh.
America’s escalation concerns and dancing around Russia since 2014 look like a thick layer of excuses covering a very basic truth.

The truth being that the US never really saw an enemy in Russia and an ally in Ukraine.
That it was more afraid of Russia losing the war than it genociding a European nation of 40 million out of existence.
This stings a lot.

This is especially painful since Trump has spent the last 5 months finding new ways to blame Ukraine for the war and paint Putin as a friend.
There is no moral neither geopolitical difference between defeating Iran and defeating Russia. They’re both evil.

Yet my country is allowed to be bombed by Russia every freaking day for more than 3 years now with America becoming friendlier to the Kremlin war criminals with every child murdered in their sleep in Kyiv.
So yes, I am bitter and I don’t know what to feel. That’s all.

Meanwhile, this is a residential building in Kyiv from after night’s Russian drone and ballistic attack.
