Elon Musk, we Ukrainians know perfectly well what our internal problems are. We will deal with them ourselves, through our own democratic institutions. We do not need you to decide who should govern Ukraine. Right now, Russia is our enemy. Russia invaded our country. Russia is killing our people. Either you fail to understand what Ukrainians are fighting for, or you understand perfectly well and choose to ignore the consequences of your rhetoric. Your words do not exist in a vacuum. When you repeat narratives that shift attention away from Russian aggression and toward removing Ukraine’s elected leadership, you risk helping those who want to undermine our resistance. We are fighting for our survival, our sovereignty, and our right to determine our own future. You do not get to take that right away from us. And perhaps, before lecturing Ukrainians about democracy, you should listen to the people actually living through this war.
