At least the Americans are footing the bill, a social media user commented on the video showing how they are partying in Ukraine in the middle of the war. The spreading recordings did not come to light at the best time, since there are already fewer and fewer fans in America to continue flooding the war-torn country with the same amount of support as before.
Videos are spreading like wildfire on social media, showing Ukrainian youth partying recklessly while the country is in a bloody war.
Americans are already divided over the question of whether to continue their significant financial support to Ukraine, and the recordings made the overseas population even more uncertain as to what the war-torn country is spending the billions of US dollars on.
For example, a TikTok user shared a video of hundreds of people having fun at the Fifty Beach Club pool bar in Kyiv during the war.
The interface was immediately flooded with comments.
At least the Americans are footing the bill
one of these users wrote sarcastically.
Why were we all worried when it's party season over there?
another commenter noted.
However, while dissatisfaction is growing among Americans, the Biden administration just the other day asked for another 24 billion dollars to help Ukraine, of which 13 billion would go to military aid, and the remaining 11 billion would go to keep the economy of the war-torn country alive and for humanitarian purposes. .
The social media user who shared the footage of the youngsters having fun in the Ukrainian capital, who goes by the name Edward, was quick to explain himself after his post sparked mass outrage from people.
I wanted to show with the video that people in Ukraine can live a normal life, mainly thanks to the air defense systems that they received from, for example, the United States or Germany
he said. He added that the people partying in the videos are the same people who still have to seek covert shelter during airstrikes, including soldiers on rotational deployment.
At the same time, videos of partisan Ukrainians from other parts of the country, such as Odessa, were shared by Telegram user RadioGenova.
A prayer for Ukraine. Please give them more money, they're out of vodka
- they write ironically in the description of the post.
