Whataboutism is when you shift the focus away from the thing you can't change and aren't responsible for towards something you are responsible for and should change.
And what's the author's point here? That Ukraine is important? Okay, cool?
I'm guessing the whataboutism isn't even something unrelated, like they're pretending it is, it's probably people pointing out that the difference in how refugees are treated in media and by politicians is blatantly racist.
