It’s necessary for the US public to recollect what Russia’s President Putin instructed the world in his 2/24/22 speech (cited under): #1. that Russian troops had gone into the Donbass space (on the request of the Russian Duma) to focus on army websites attacking the ethnically Russian peoples of Donbass; #2. that Russia could be focusing on army websites in the remainder of Ukraine that contribute to assaults on Donbass peoples;
#3. that Russia didn’t intend to take cities or occupy Ukraine; #4. that Russia supposed to “de-Nazify” Ukraine (neo-Nazi Azov army items had been ”cleaning” the Donbass space of ethnically Russian individuals for eight years – bringing greater than 14,000 fatalities regardless of the 2015 Minsk Stop Fireplace); #4. that Ukraine won’t develop into an enemy Nato nation proper at Russia’s doorstep – ie: Ukraine shall be a ‘impartial nation’ [like Sweden, Switzerland, etc]; #5. that agreements towards these ends shall be multinational and in writing; and #6. that Russia won’t be deterred from this resolve – as a matter of safety for Russia’s individuals.
Immediately’s mainstream media is fanning flames to the lethal chaos in Ukraine after they fail to incorporate any of Russia’s said causes for taking over arms towards Ukraine’s army. Putin’s phrases are a part of historical past. Solely in years to come back, tragically, will we all know what’s true in at the moment’s media hyperbole towards Russia – when it is going to be too late to have averted nuclear holocaust.
