(38,808 posts)an appropriate recipient for the Nobel? There are hundreds of thousands dead.
It would be just as weird as giving it to that RW Venezuelan lady.
Did the Norwegian Nobel Committee nominate him or was it okieblue54.bsky.social?
By successfully resisting Russian control of Ukraine, hes saving hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian lives which would be lost if Russia had control and would engage in violent reprisals as Russia does with conquered countries.
