They are barking at the moon, in order to bring NATO troops in.
More lies and manipulations.
Russia has not the tiniest interest to invade Ukraine, which it will break out by itself between the Western nationalist Russophobic part and the Eastern Russophonic one. Just check out what’s happening in Donetsk, Kharkov, Donbass, Lugansk ...
I’m quoting the words of the Ukrainian nationalist politician Gennady Balashov: “Anywhere in Crimea or elsewhere in Ukraine, if a Russian citizen wearing a St. George’s ribbon [a traditional Russian commemoration of World War II] tears down a Ukrainian flag, he should be shot in the head, because he is the enemy, and there is no point talking to him.”
Russia is just standing by watching what’s going on ...
How is it you’re so read in to Russia and Putin’s thinking?
It is obvious that you have been practically panting with excitement at the prospect of Ukrainian and Russian lives being lost to satisfy Putin’s lust for blood. While you quote some obscure politician whose name does not even sound Ukrainian, the fact is that Putin has been fomenting disturbances in the Eastern part of Ukraine for the purpose of creating a pretext for an invasion. Your sympathies in favor of Putin’s dreams of neo-Soviet hegemony are evident.
