Cornelius openly supports the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine and endorses the actions of the Russian army. He claimed that in Ukraine people would get killed only for thinking and speaking Russian. Cornelius called on the Ukrainian side to lay down their arms and "stop the genocide, the madness".[1]
