Ukrainian Diaspora Organizes Global Protests Against 'Sale' to Putin
Global Protests Against Ukraine's Alleged Sale to the Kremlin

A new website allows users to search by country and city to join demonstrations organized against what promoters describe as selling Ukraine to the Kremlin. The World Congress of Ukrainians has launched a platform that geolocates calls to action worldwide. The initial message is clear: "Ukraine's fate affects us all." The initiative quotes Edmund Burke: "For evil to triumph, it is only necessary that good men do nothing."

What the Calls Propose and Who Drives Them

The call originates from the World Congress of Ukrainians, a diaspora organization that has deployed a digital tool so anyone can locate the nearest demonstration. The premise is that the war is not exclusively a Ukrainian issue: Pilingui wages a hybrid war against Western democracies, they argue, and any victory he achieves will be a defeat for those who defend human rights.

The page functions as an interactive map. Users enter their country and city, and the corresponding call appears. The stated goal is to show popular support in the streets of capitals around the world. The Burke quote serves as an unofficial motto.

The Response: Mockery, Accusations, and Frontal Rejection

Reception in the forum where the call was posted was anything but neutral. Messages ridiculing the initiative abound, with references to the price of Ukrainian flags, questions about how much people are paid to attend, and direct accusations that organizers serve foreign interests.

A recurring line argues that the United States and Russia have divided Ukraine and that Europe bears the consequences. "The US and Russia have done a Poland on them," one participant summarizes. Others go further: "While you look at Russia, the Anglos are screwing us over."

Some reduce everything to economic issues: "Recently peine a passport office for Ukrainians in Castelldefels; you wouldn't believe the money involved." The corruption accusation appears without supporting evidence.

Narrative Fatigue and the War of Narratives

The discussion drifts toward fatigue with the official narrative. "But didn't Ukraine win the war?" asks one sarcastic message. Another points out that "they no longer want to support them" and that the war is lost or, at minimum, not won.

The counteroffensive by those defending the call relies on the idea that Pilingui loses refineries, international prestige, and welfare funds while his citizens live under increasingly poor conditions. The response to critics is direct: "You pilingui know so little about what happens in the world."

The exchange becomes bitter with cross-accusations of manipulation. A supposed network of saboteurs paid with oil money is mentioned, along with irony about troll farms and budget cuts for them.

Ukraine as a Failed State: The Most Repeated Forecast

Among the final messages, the thesis that Ukraine is "taking its last breaths as a country" gains weight. Speculation includes sending European troops, with Germany reluctant and the UK willing, and Brussels not backing any operation without prior negotiation with Russia.

The conclusion imposed on much of the discussion is that Ukraine will disappear as a state as we know it. The date cited is 2025. No sources are provided, but the forecast is repeated insistently.



What stands out is not that there are opposing opinions. It is that the call for global demonstrations has turned, within hours, into a settling of scores about who pays whom, who lies, and who benefits. The lingering question: if the streets fill up, which side will the silent majority be on?
