Why can’t Putin just be straight forward and say: “The reason we want Ukraine is because we don’t want the US and NATO to have a battery of nuclear missiles pointed towards us at our border?”
There’s no need to sell a bullshit narrative.
Because that would still be a lie. NATO is already at 160km from Saint Petersburg. Russia share border with NATO already. Russia share border with the US already.
The real reason is that Putin wanted to immortalize his figure in Russian history by expanding the Russia empire like Peter the great.
Now is fighting because of sunk cost fallacy. He simply cannot stop.
Because that's not the reason the Russian citizenry supports it, which means it isn't bullshit. Yeah, the Russian state is mostly interested in keeping NATO off its borders, but those Russian speakers in Ukraine usually have family in Russia too. They're acutely aware that the neo-Nazis want to remove all the ethnic Russians from these regions, and at this point if Russia pulled out I think a majority of Ukraine would support them by expelling or executing anyone who was found "collaborating" with Russia.
News my ass. pure propaganda.
it's no different than western sources like cbs, cnn, fox news, npr, bbc, le monde, der speigel doing the same thing.
Not even close. Are you suggesting that pointing out Russia is the aggressor is somehow propaganda? Are you for real?
the american congress voted to stop weapons shipments to ukraine in 2018 once they realize we were giving weapons to neo-nazis that would use it to provoke russia -- this is a independently verifiable fact and you should ask yourself why you're almost a decade slower to know this than the american congress.
