Lars von Trier defends ‘Russian lives matter also’ comment

Of couse russian lives matter too.
contrary to Russia, Ukraine treats it's POWs well and according to international rules.

Russian lives do matter, but not in Ukraine. That is the point the Kremlin is trying to make, right?

If you care about Russian lives, you should do everything you can to get rid of Putin.

The odds are good that he thinks appeasement is the best course.

I wouldnt be surprised if he smelled like fungus and sour dairy.

I've always hated his movies, they are the extremely unpleasant product of a disturbed mind. Now here he is yet again publicly saying something extremely misguided and stupid IRL.

What is the opposite of this sentiment?

“Russian lives matter also!” he wrote on Instagram on Tuesday after Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s visit to Denmark, where he and Danish prime minister, Mette Frederiksen, inspected the F-16s to be delivered to his country.

Sure. But when you're fighting a war -- and this is a war that Russia chose to initiate, not Ukraine, and which Russia could choose to terminate at any time -- people are going to die.

I don't think that anyone claimed that the deaths don't matter.
