Hi Famiboards, I wanted to shine a spotlight on a valuable resource for ways we foreigners can directly support Ukraine in their time of crisis.
Here is the original source of the information presented in this post.
However, I am putting the entirety of its contents into this post so as not to put any more strain on their servers than necessary.
Prior to the recognition, pro-Kremlin channels have spread false justifications for the ongoing war. In a speech announcing the recognition, Putin blamed Ukrainians themselves for the escalation, calling it “a colony with puppets at its helm.”
Putin placed a demand for Ukraine to stop the escalation staged by the Russian militants, and there is a high likelihood that this may end up in a much larger conflict.

RUSSIA-UKRAINE CRISIS/WAR: INFO AND WAYS TO HELP
Information on the conflict
