metisdead Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 ‘They started the war’: Russia’s Putin blames West and Ukraine for provoking conflict Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday used a highly anticipated speech to deny responsibility for the war in Ukraine and lash out at his adversaries. His comments come despite repeated rejections of Putin’s narrative surrounding the war by Western nations and Ukraine. Feb. 24 will mark one year since Russia mounted a large-scale invasion of Ukraine, beginning a ground war in Europe that Putin still refers to as a “special military operation.” Read more here: https://www.cnbc.com/2023/02/21/russias-putin-blames-west-and-ukraine-for-provoking-conflict.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billd766 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 To quote a famous UK lady at the time, Mandy Rice-Davies, talking in court about an alleged affair with Lord Astor, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandy_Rice-Davies quote "When James Burge, the defence counsel, pointed out that Lord Astor denied an affair or even having met her, she dismissed this, giggling "Well he would, wouldn't he?"[9] (often misquoted "Well he would say that, wouldn't he?" Which is what Putin has denied all along. "Well he would say that, wouldn't he?" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caldera Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 He should be locked up in a mental health facility instead of running (and ruining) a country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he won't last forever and there's a good chance that whoever replaces him is even worse. It's not as if Putin goes and Russians dance in the street and instantly become the Netherlands.

SunnyinBangrak Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 I wonder if the US concentrated more on improving it's own democracy(transparency, less fake news, more secure elections with forensic audits possible to check concerning events like water leaks causing counts to shut etc etc), and interfered less in the politics of sovereign nations halfway around the world, we would all be safer? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putin with his claims of Nazis leading the Ukraine, and you with your insinuations of electoral fraud. As far as baselessness goes, I think it's a tie. 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the world would be less safe because of rogue imperialist actors like Russia using force to seize territory. This is why NATO and the UN were created. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had it on when it was broadcast live with English translator, no need to watch it again. The fact checks carried out are all on target. Not sure about your last remark about being a big boy or girl is that relevant.........lol Edited February 22, 2023 by Bkk Brian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
