I’d just like to point out that this picture is particularly impressive.

You are not supposed to touch the Crown Prince in any circumstances.

Seeing him embrace Zelensky speaks volumes.

      The US turned heel on Ukraine and Zelensky needs support to beat the Nazis.

        Thanks for the explanation. This is severely disappointing to see, but it’s a necessary evil. :/

          Wasnt their main role as a mediator for negotiations? I think yall are overreacting a bit.

          From the mod linked AP article:

          Zelenskyy met with the kingdom’s powerful crown prince Monday evening, with the president saying they “had a detailed discussion on the steps and conditions needed to end the war and secure a reliable and lasting peace.”

          “Saudi Arabia provides a crucial platform for diplomacy, and we appreciate this,” Zelenskyy said online.

      Why is zelensky talking to scum like him?

      Same reason he was sitting across from JD Vance and Trump to begin with. Any port in a storm.

      Fuck MBS. This is disappointing to see.

      Its a predictable response when you recognize that the Saudis are largely an extension of western hegemony in the region. I wouldn’t be surprsied if someone like Rex Tillerson or Liz Cheney brokered the meeting.

      Oh sorry I thought everyone knew… The thing is, his country is being invaded, everything he has and every loved one he knows are fighting for their lives and survival against a brutal psychotic dictator
