    Watched the whole interview. This person seem to still live up in the reagan anti-communist rhetoric. She reminds me of these teachers who vent their frustrations on kids and act authoritarian on them as to compensate the lack of something.

    The most annoying thing is that the peace accords back then where known to be derailed by the USA and UK, like it was 100% not a secret, absolutely public knowledge if you actually cared about the actual geopolitical region and were paying attention to what was going on outside general news media. Academics were saying the same as well.

    The Western media utterly, and seemingly in conjunction decided to under report this to well, mostly to Americans. So your average Americans were kept in the dark of how instrumental they were in escalating this war. And painted anyone who stated actual reality as merely Putin puppets. The manipulation was strong since it seems to have worked wonders.

    I fail to see how the USA and by extension the UK are any different when playing the disinformation and misinformation game. Everyone blames everyone else and claims they do not do any of it.

    Nuland is just a war criminal but one that has the approval of the American military and political complex. I trust people have listensed to the leaked phone call from years ago where she cherry picks Ukrainian politicians to exalt into office? Go democracy.

    Surprised pikachu What? Ukraine did not trust Russia to not attack them again, after being attacked by Russia?

    Russia has a trust-problem. If they are serious about wanting peace they should work on it.

      what does this reply have to do with the article or the admission contained therein besides having vaguely associated topic metadata tags, you bot?

      They are working on it by eliminating the fighting capacity of the AFU. At this point the only peace Ukraine will see is one where it unconditionally surrenders.

        I’m sure the tens of thousand of dead russian troops and all those displaced russian families prefer that to just gaining trust with others, resulting in the end of support for Ukraine and a quick surrender. Apparently getting people killed is better than doing everything you can to end end the conflict.

          Apparently in the mind of the west, Ukraine and Zelensky in particular it is…

          Those talking points don’t feel humiliating to say in the context of the interview you’re replying under?

          Do you have human feelings?

          Russia literally did everything possible to try and avoid this conflict for 8 years prior. Ending the conflict without achieving the objectives would be sheer idiocy as anybody who is not a complete imbecile would understand.

      Really, the takeaway here is: “who gives a shit?”

      When they say “undermined peace talks” they mean “supported Ukraine so they had an option other than unconditional surrender.”

      We’re supposed to believe that after Putin got what he wanted in 2014 that he’ll just stop after he gets what he wants this time?

      No.

      Fuck Russia, fuck Putin, and fuck these bootlickers trying to frame Russia as anything other than authoritarian.

        Compare the variety of things I comment on to the variety you do and ask yourself “who’s the shill?”

        I’m just some dude 🤷‍♂️

          Well, considering we’re replying to you being an obvious shill pushing the propaganda line that ‘anyone who provides any information uncomfortable to my paymasters is a shill so don’t listen to them’ I would say that it’s pretty obvious to anyone that you are the shill.

              Okay?

              You accused someone of being a shill and I pointed out how much more likely (a lot) it is that you are a literal shill.

              Congratulations on your toddler-esque ability to identify what was said. Thoughts?

                I love that you continue to argue with someone that clearly doesn’t give a fuck what you think. In two threads no less. Anyway, see ya!

                  Projection. Why would I care what you think? Do you care what I think? Is that why YOU’RE continuing to engage?

                  I’m replying to you because you’re a dumb piece of shit and you shouldn’t be allowed to troll an otherwise worthwhile discussion without being made to look like what you are. And good news: you look like a dumb piece of shit!
