Cuba had the same thing happen to them in the 60's.

Ahh yes you have to think a bit critically.

Actually he also said (in the link):

“The background was that President Putin declared in the autumn of 2021, and actually sent a draft treaty that they wanted NATO to sign, to promise no more NATO enlargement. That was what he sent us. And was a pre-condition for not invade Ukraine. Of course we didn’t sign that.”

That too.

The USA was fine to let the Nazis take over Europe until Japan invaded Pearl Harbour. What's your point?

Not at all, I just think these comments are disingeneous and filled with fallacies. We use the same arguments when we pollute the earth (other countries should lead by example if we should stop polluting), so why does the same not apply to foreign interference? Maybe the USA should remove its 800+ military bases around the world before telling other countries they can't interfere in another countries sovereignty. Imagine a country saying, USA please leave. Do you think the USA will just say, "OK sure I'll pull all my troops out tomorrow."

Want their country back != will fight to the death for it. Also share the poll please I can't find anything recent.

Yup I agree. But much like the Ukrainians were able to mobilize, Russia is doing the same. The paper tiger isn't all paper though, they really do have 5 times the population as Ukraine.

But that would counter Zelensky's argument.

It was a flight from St Petersburg to Moscow, but yes why he was allowed in the country after being exiled shows that in Russia their rules aren't cut and dry.

You haven't seen the video of the Ukrainian lieutenant throwing a grenade into the trench of the Ukrainian soldiers who disobeyed an order to charge the front. Or the daylight kidnappings of Ukrainian citizens by the recruitment officers.

This entire comment thread pretends like their poop doesn't stink while telling someone else their poop stinks. American Exceptionalism is a bad thing to defend.

I don't live in the US, if that's what you mean by the real world.

It's pretty clear the CIA wants dead Ukranians, 60,000 this summer ☹️

All the colonized Native American tribes first..

No I am not shilling for the CIA thank you.

Yes I agree, particularly in the fact that the corruption and facade that was the Russian military reporting structure made it seem to Russian leadership that they were more powerful than they thought. This is the problem with having so many yes men surrounding an authoritarian leader.

However as we're hitting the two year mark on the war soon, the Russian military has likely become more competent and less corrupt than before with the increased attention.

Generally you want to look at the sources that the military use and not sources the media use to justify their positions.
