Russia invaded Ukraine.
Oh Gawd, another “Russia invaded Ukraine” ooh ahh monkey post.
Like we haven’t heard it a thousand times around here.
Yes, it has been that way since February. We are all aware,
Russia invaded Ukraine. So what? They made a sovereign decision as a great power. America invaded how many countries, I’ve lost count? Do I like Risosna’s brutality, of course not. But Ondknt pretend it has anything to do with the west nor that the West should be involved.
Our business is our economy, energy, standard of living and avoiding war with a nuclear giant - NOT Ukraine’s wel-being.
The rest of the story:
Ukraine has received security guarantees for abandoning the world's third nuclear capability. We don't have that weapon. We also have no security. We also do not have part of the territory of our state that is larger in area than Switzerland, the Netherlands or Belgium. And most importantly - we don’t have millions of our citizens. We don’t have all this.Translated: We will develop nuclear weapons.Therefore, we have something. The right to demand a shift from a policy of appeasement to ensuring security and peace guarantees.
Since 2014, Ukraine has tried three times to convene consultations with the guarantor states of the Budapest Memorandum. Three times without success. Today Ukraine will do it for the fourth time. I, as President, will do this for the first time. But both Ukraine and I are doing this for the last time. I am initiating consultations in the framework of the Budapest Memorandum. The Minister of Foreign Affairs was commissioned to convene them. If they do not happen again or their results do not guarantee security for our country, Ukraine will have every right to believe that the Budapest Memorandum is not working and all the package decisions of 1994 are in doubt.
Note: This speech was given by Zelensky at Munich on 2/19/2022. What happened on 2/24? Oh, yeah:
Russia invaded Ukraine.
100% correct. They invaded Ukraine. They did this eight years after the US deep state/CIA/Nuland and McCain invaded Ukraine and launched the Madon revolution/regime change AND after threatening Russia with Ukraine's NATO membership. Said threat which occurred after doubling the size of NATO in 20 years right up to Russia's borders.
Who invaded who??
