To protest the US and UK sending weapons to Ukraine’s army, demanding an end to the supply of weapons helping Kyiv defend itself from Moscow’s invasion.”
The protestors, comprised of Russian youth, held numerous signs depicting injured Russian soldiers with graphic injuries from battle. Rallying outside the US Embassy in Moscow, the group of students raised the photos of maimed soldiers chanting messages to the West, begging for an end to the supply of weapons to Ukraine. The video below shows the students chanting in unison as they protest. [i]
This has to be the most pathetic thing you will see today. Russians are begging at the US and UK embassies to stop sending weapons to Ukraine that kills and injures Russian soldiers. Maybe the Russian soldiers shouldn't be in Ukraine?!pic.twitter.com/Pdgbyf0Jmy

Throughout the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, several countries have continuously provided support in the form of various armaments, including,
- Estonian & Norwegian Howitzers, long-range artillery launchers
- British Javelin anti-tank missiles
- British Mastiff armored vehicles
- Turkish Bayraktar TB2 combat drones
- US Phoenix Ghost tactical drones
- US Mi-24 attack helicopters and
- various “automatic rifles, machine guns, assault rifles, sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols, and ammunition.” [ii]
Despite Russia being responsible for illegally invading Ukraine, the activist group stood confidently, most with solemn expressions as they rallied together, hoping to garner support for their cause. Unsurprisingly, social media quickly began to ridicule the protestors. [i]
One Twitter user, @UROCKlive1, indicated that the protestors should instead “beg for Russia to stop bombing Ukraine,” as seen in the screenshot below.

Another Twitter user implies that the students were paid to participate in the protesting, as illustrated in the following screenshot.

Finally, another seemingly unfazed Twitter user, @KateRoe18, calls the entire demonstration “very pathetic and very staged, just for the press.” They express these contentions due to the protest occurring “on Bolshoy Devyatinsky Ln looking south,” “outside the US Embassy in Moscow.”

Despite what appears to have been a ‘publicity stunt,’ few seem to be moved by the student protestor’s requests. Reports indicate “over 6,000 cases have been initiated in Ukraine concerning crimes against humanity committed b the Russians.
Furthermore, according to an image shared by @YHustled, the United States committed $25.76 billion in military aid to Ukraine between Jan. 24 and May 10, 2022. [iii]
