Germany-and-NATO-Cut-Down-Funding-to-Ukraine - Thumbnail Design

The aim of this thumbnail is/was to represent the seemingly successful Putin in the face of the EU's cutting down funding for Ukraine. Thumbnail depicting the contrasting smile or glee of Putin and the sad, lost and distressed look of Zelensky. With the burning Ukrainian map in the background, I am conveying a sense of "defeat" or "loss" for Zelensky. The variant of this thumbnail depicts an isolated Zelensky in the foreground, with EU officials in the background with glaring eyes. This scene portrays Zelensky all alone without the support of top European diplomats. Click-Through-Rate, 8.7%
