The past leader of Ukraine was in Putin’s pocket. Zelensky actually changed this and obviously being annexed kinda makes it hard to be neutral, so I’m not sure where you got that from.
The link you posted is from January 2014, which is the time period of his predecessor’s predecessor’s predecessor.
Zelensky’s presidency started in 2019. As late as 2018, he was still releasing comedy films which were being banned in Ukraine under his predecessor’s anti-Russian cultural laws.
Oh for fuck’s sake, this has all been about you being Captain Literal? Yes, I know Poroshenko directly preceded Zelensky. That’s not what anyone is talking about here.
Look again at the comment i replied to and quoted in my initial comment which you subsequently replied to. Is there another way to interpret it which I’m missing?

Huh, that is interesting. Can you tell us any more about his predecessor?
Sure. He tortured people who opposed him in horrific ways.

But that’s okay, they were probably evil Western imperialists or whatever, am I right?
whoosh
(hint: check who Zelensky’s predecessor was)
That’s literally about his predecessor.

If you want to brush up on recent history, this video Ukraine: The Avoidable War is not bad.

I think I showed you the way to interpret it. You just don’t care for the fact that it’s Yanukovych.
So was Ukraine neutral before 2014 or not? The meme seems to be saying it was neutral and I’m also saying it was more or less neutral.
Are you disagreeing with the meme?
