@George-K said in The Ukraine war thread:

The Ukrainian president accused the two officials of failing to do their duty and protect Ukraine.
He also warned that they "will all be punished," but said he did not currently have time to deal with them.
"Now, I do not have time to deal with all the traitors. But gradually they will all be punished," Zelensky said in his address.
