"Arrr! Zelenskyy be throwin' shade at Putin for blamin' Ukraine for the concert hall rumble in Moscow!"
2024-03-24
Arrr mateys! The Ukrainian scallywag Volodymyr Zelenskyy be calling the Russian scoundrel Vladimir Putin and his crew "scum" for tryin' to tie Kyiv to the terror attack near Moscow! Methinks there be no honor among these thieves! Aye, pass the grog!
In the language of a 17th-century pirate, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy be angrily rejected Russian President Vladimir Putin's suggestion that Kyiv was linked to the attack on a suburban Moscow concert hall that killed more than 130 people. Argh matey! In a video statement and written post on X, Zelenksyy responded to Putin's Saturday night address to the nation in which the Russian leader said his authorities arrested four suspects caught attempting to flee to Ukraine in the aftermath of Friday's assault on the Crocus City Hall music venue in Krasnogorsk. Shiver me timbers! Zelenskyy argued Putin and his lieutenants were "scum" for attempting to shift the blame to Ukraine, while calling the "miserable" Russian leader treating his own people as "expendables." Avast ye scoundrels! Kyiv strongly denied any involvement, and the Islamic State group's Afghanistan affiliate claimed responsibility, supported by U.S. intelligence. Blimey! The attack was described as gunmen shooting civilians at point-blank range and throwing explosive devices that caused the building to collapse, with ISIS claiming the attack was part of their war against those fighting Islam. Arr!
