Trump: "I ended 8 wars, and the one that's the toughest is Russia-Ukraine. The two leaders hate each other so much. Hatred is very interesting, war is very interesting, but it's too bad." He repeats this passage about hatred like a mantra, and a lot has been said about it, but I would like to emphasize that this is a manipulative substitution of concepts. I don't know what the aggressor’s reasons for killing Ukrainians are, maybe it is hatred. But you cannot reduce our desire to live, live free in our own country, speak our language, and cherish our culture (instead of being occupied, repressed, re-educated, and in a lot of cases killed) to simple hatred. Ukraine isn't fighting out of hatred, we fight for each other and everything in this world that is dear to us. (Also, "war is very interesting"??)

Here is a small reminder for everyone spreading the pro-russian narrative about "revenge for Wildberries," as well as for any normal person who doesn't follow the war closely and feels confused. Pay attention to the dates! ​Russia struck the Amstor Shopping Mall in Kremenchuk on June 27, 2022, with cruise missiles in the middle of the day while up to 1,000 people were inside. 21 people died, and over 70 were injured. ​Russia struck the Epicentr Hypermarket in Kharkiv on May 25, 2024. It was a weekend afternoon, and around 200 civilians and staff were inside shopping for home supplies. The blast sparked a high-temperature chemical and building-material fire. We had to use DNA testing to identify victims. 19 were killed, including children, and 46 were injured. ​Russia struck the Kostiantynivka Central Market and surrounding shops at least twice: September 6, 2023, and August 9, 2024. Both strikes targeted dense retail zones crowded with shoppers during morning or early afternoon hours. 17 were killed and 32 injured in the September 2023 strike, and 14 were killed and 44 injured in the August 2024 strike on the Eko-Market. ​Russia struck the Nova Poshta Sorting Terminal in Korotych, Kharkiv region, on October 21, 2023. Late at night, while employees were unloading civilian mail, parcels, and humanitarian packages, two S-300 missiles hit a location where missiles arrive faster than they can be detected. The 8 people killed stood no chance, 15 people were injured. ​Russians continued to strike Nova Poshta in Korotych on January 13, 2026, killing 4 people and injuring 6; on July 19, 2026, killing 4 people and injuring 19; and on August 2, 2026, killing a driver. Among all the attacks listed, only the latest two occurred after the beginning of Ukrainian strikes on Wildberries. ​Russia struck the ATB Supermarket & Retail Square in Kherson on May 3, 2023. Hitting civilian shopping infrastructure during daytime hours, they trapped shoppers inside the burning grocery hall. 23 people were killed across Kherson that day: 4 inside the ATB supermarket, 1 inside the Epicentr store, and others at nearby transport stops and shops. ​Russia struck the Kherson Central City Market on October 1, 2024. Around 9:00 AM, artillery rounds landed directly in active outdoor market stalls. 7 were killed and 3 were injured. ​Finally, Russia struck Kramatorsk Central Station on April 8, 2022, during an active civilian evacuation. A Tochka-U ballistic missile hit packed evacuation platforms, killing 63 civilians, including 9 children, and injuring over 150. They also struck Chaplyne Railway Station on August 24, 2022, where an Iskander missile hit passenger trains and adjacent cars, killing 25 civilians and burning passenger carriages. ​This is a tiny fraction of Russian strikes on Ukrainian retail chains, markets, and civilian transportation infrastructure during the full-scale invasion. A tiny, little fraction! So when you brain-dead amoebas write "revenge for Wildberries," think again. Russia was bombing Ukraine all these years, long before our attacks on Wildberries, and they will continue regardless.
