    What does the arms deal have to do with this? It took WAY too long for them to clarify this plant is being occupied by Russia and has been for years, and that Russian artillery damaged the transmission lines that’s leading to this potential catastrophe. I don’t like to go “what the hell this is obvious media bias” but like guys, what the hell? What’s Zelensky supposed to do about this beyond like, buy more weapons and throw the idiots that are causing this situation (and who are trying to DIY plug a nuclear reactor into their own power grid… fuck…) out of the plant so competent operators can take over again?
