> Its only insane because you have no knowledge of actual history

You realise that Russia and the USSR lied nearly constantly right? And you can hear about it from like hundreds of millions of post soviet citizens?.

I mean it’s gotta be beyond clear to anyone that Russia lies to its own citizens there soldiers dug defences in one of the most radioactive parts of the world.

No. We dont. That's what the American propaganda tells us. Not the circumstances and actual declassified documents. Character assassination, nothing else.

Hundreds of millions of post soviet citizens do not say anything like that.

That's a religious statement. Nothing else.

The US lied about nonexistent WMDs for EIGHT years. And yet, its propaganda is the one that's being trusted to determine the trustworthiness of others. That's just crazy.

You realise multiple countries can lie? its not a zero sum game?.

So if Russia doesn't lie can you explain this?.

'Can' lie is not the same as 'using lying as a policy tool'. The Angloamerican establishment have been doing it for so long that they have a nickname in diplomacy and political science that goes 200 years back.

It was later revealed that Russia was doing 'maneuvers' at the border to force the Ukrainian government to give up invading the Russian speaking breakaway regions like it did 5-10 times in the last 8 years. Russia expected the Ukrainian government to do the same again, but this time they seem to have chosen to go ahead due to US pressure.

Those regions are part of Ukraine you cannot invade yourself.

You’re really determined to defend Russia on every front aren’t you?.

I’m just glad that most people know the truth and that your clear propaganda is failing.

I presume you believe Ukraine has black magic battalions and biologically engineered super soldiers as well?.

Because that’s what Russian media has been reporting.
