She’s right. A handshake with someone representing the country currently committing war crimes in your country should not be necessary. Can’t imagine what she must feel when asked to do so.
You wouldn't believe how many Ukrainians are now working in Russia, and they shake my hand.
That’s great that anecdotally you get people to shake your hand. That doesn’t invalidate the way she feels, nor does it invalidate the fact that Russia is doing some horrible things right now.
But fencing ridiculous itself nowadays
Is that while you rape their children in front of them on top of their dead wives? Fuck off Putin knob gobbler.
No, I'm not
Your grasp of English is as soft as your lips on that Russian dick.
