Unfortunately, on these war, Russia is always the bad guy. However, in my own opinion, none of the Ukrainian nor Russian started the war.
It is the NATO alliance who push Ukraine go into war with Russia. NATO arming Ukrainian military with sophisticated weapon.
All these armaments NATO dumps in Russia doorstep is a real threat for Russia and it's people. The action provokes Russia and putting itself into a defense position to defend against foreign powers.
Talking about depending territory, the best defense is not creating or development or deployment of passive defense weapon but to completely eradicate the threats. It is a search and destroy operation.
Now, President Trump put all the blame to Ukraine instead of NATO and the US itself.
There is an objective fact that current war was started by Russian on February 24, 2022 with an invasion force of over 100,000 men. Putin started the war by declaring a "Special Military Operation"
NATO alliance didn't push Ukraine into war with Russia. NATO and US thought that Ukraine will fall in less than two weeks, when democratically elected president of Ukraine was asking NATO for help Germans responded by providing a couple hundred helmets... would you call that arming Ukraine with sophisticated weapons?
The only weapons provided from West to Ukraine were the anti-tank weapons provided by President Trump in his first term :)
Eventually NATO and US started arming Ukraine with real weapons, but most of those came too late and at a very slow rate. If weapons were provided in time this war would already be over.
I would recommend you to learn a little bit more about the history of this conflict by at least watching a decent documentary about this war made by Shawn Penn called Superpower:
Thank you for the enlightenment, however this is the reason why we barely know the truth around the us.
The eye opener video is not available to view in my country. By the way, thank you for sharing the truth.
Interesting.
Wow! Maybe you can find it somewhere else online, but it is a pretty good documentary considering it wasn't even made by locals in Ukraine but by an American movie star... Here is what it looks like for me:
:D
Remember the idea of the "free internet" with information available for all? All f the services have been localised, which is done for profit, but ends up siloing locations.
It annoys me on services like Spotify, where I pay for Premium, I don't get easy access to a lot of the US side of things. I can't choose a location preference, like in Australia for more my kind of stuff (not that I am a fan of Australian music generally). Same on Netflix, and other streaming services. A lot gets hidden, or unavailable completely. For instance on Netflix, most Finnish programming is not available in Australia at all, which means I can't share some of the views with my brother.
I haven't watched this yet. Perhaps I should give it a go.
