You could argue Ukraine came first. Kyiv was built first. Moscow was not established until 1147. St. Petersburg in 1703

A Ukrainian “coup” in 2015 that ousted the country’s pro-Moscow president put Russian and Ukraine on the path to war, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a much-touted interview with conservative pundit Tucker Carlson released Thursday.
The Russian president in the two-hour interview also said peace talks with Ukraine early in the conflict had been “almost finalized” in 2022 before the U.S. and its European allies blocked further progress.
...
Peace negotiations were “almost finalized after we withdrew our troops from Kyiv, but then the other side threw away all the agreement and obeyed the instructions of European countries and the U.S. to fight to the bitter end,” Mr. Putin contended at one point.

Putin dropped one truth bomb after another tonight. Accept it.
That’s not the same as nuking them, as you shrieked previously. Try thinking before you post rubbish.
stop the name calling
“Iraq, Somalia, Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria “
So you think we should of allowed Saddam Hussien or Osama Bin Laden to remain as malignant forces? What about Khadaffy? We helped a lot of people in a lot of countries and helped to make it a freer and safer world by these action. Funny, I remember Conservatives were supporters of our actions here. So, are you saying we are all a bunch of war mongers?
Tear :( Sorry you lost. Hoser. LOL!!
There’s also “name-calling” in # 9, 19, 37, and 38
Yet you don’t complain about those ... odd ...
(lol)
You communist child abusing bastards in Canada want to give us advice? On what? Abusing children? Confiscating farmers’ land? You pedophiles have nothing to say.
so there’s no Russian successes to talk about
got it
That video was 100% proof that the US was over in Ukraine working feverishly to goad Ukraine into starting a war with Russia.
There is no denying it when seeing that video.
You need to get off this thread.
more personal insults = no Russian successes
How dare we point out the obvious!
Just forget about the two—I say again, TWO—elections that were held in Ukraine after that. What Putin is upset about is that the Ukrainians picked a government that will not kowtow to Russia.

“What about Khadaffy? We helped a lot of people in a lot of countries and helped to make it a freer and safer world by these action. “
Is this satire ? Or a serious post ?
Libya has been in a civil war since Ghadaffi fell. And it is the staging ground for most of the illegal immigration going from Africa to Europe.
After the US left Iraq, after 10 year and hundreds of thousands of deaths, ISIS captured 40 percent of the country. And they had to be defeated all over again.
Afghanistan had 20 years of war, and hundreds of thousands of deaths, and now the Taliban are back anyway,.
The USA spent ~$5 trillion on failed wars, thousands of military deaths, tens of thousands of maimings.
“Putin: Ukrainian coup put country on collision course with Russia years before invasion”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Calling it the “Ukrainian coup” is just as mad and utterly misleading as when Democrats say Trump staged “a coup” on January 6th!
It’s crazy talk.
You seem to be siding with the Russian deep state as they try to frame “Freedom First” citizens based on false and imagined accusations.
The truth is this:
1 - Ukrainians didn’t do any coup against Viktor Yanukovych
2 - Maga Americans didn’t do any coup against anyone on January 6.
Your wrong insinuations only help the narrative of Russias deep-states actions against Freedom First citizens.
Ukraine’s Maidan Revolution Was Not a ‘Coup’

“Ukraine’s Maidan Revolution Was Not a ‘Coup’”
Thanks, but it’s no longer disputed in non-propaganda circles. But we do understand why you guys are here.
The "coup", which it was, thank you soetoro / biden, was just an excuse for Putin's territory grab.
