So how do we separate historians from “historians” and from those who obviously impose their own bias on the data?
One way I do it is to fly at 40,000 feet, and to try to get to things that both sides agree to.
Both sides agree that Ukraine was invaded by Russia.
Both sides agree that the Moskva sank.
Both sides signed the 1994 Budapest Accession to the UN Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty. Ukraine HONORED it, by giving up their nukes. Russia VIOLATED it, by invading twice as soon as they figured out there were oil/gas/warmWaterPorts and a weak-kneed appeaser in the white house.
Both sides say the Russkies were aiming for Kiev, and they aint doin’ that any more.
Both sides acknowledge there’s more than $30B in aid headed to Ukraine.
Where else do both sides agree?
