| Wow, you've really earned your 30 roubles today. So, let's start debunking your li... er, myths. > West instigating a coup against democratically elected president of Ukraine and installing a pro-Western, pro-NATO regime You're ly... wrong. There was no 'west instigation' and government was elected by Ukrainian people, not by 'West'. >West has methodically sabotaged all Russian actions to find peaceful solutions to the crisis in Eastern Ukraine Tell me about these actions? Sending mercenaries and military equipment to Ukraine? Shelling Ukrainian forces across the border? Spreading lies about Ukraine on state TV? What other 'peaceful solutions' did I forgot? Oh, violating WTO principles by initiating a little trade war with Ukraine? More peaceful, than sending tanks to Ukraine, I must agree with that. > after we have left our military bases in Eastern Germany in exchange of the failed promise of NATO non-expansion You're wrong. There was no such promise, and there was no 'exchange'. > The main powerhouse of the uprising was the city of Sevastopol, which was home for Russian military bases for hundreds of years. Do you understand how silly it sounds? Cuba was Spanish military base for hundred of years, do you think they mad enough to take it back on a such false premise? >The residents of the city have in 20+ years never been allowed to have democratic elections of the mayor, because all Ukrainian governments felt that they would elect pro-Russian mayor. Instead, for 20+ years, they got mayors appointed from Kiev, some anti-Russian. So, in your beloved Russia, governors was not elected for 10 years, so you will blame Putin? > Crimea has de facto not been under the coup government control even before the Russian actions and was lost by Ukraine before it was gained by Russia. You're wrong again. Using Latin will not bring more credibility to this statement. > But it is the Western Ukraine that has invaded Eastern Ukraine (with the help of US), not the other way around. This is so good fantasy, you can try to sell it as a movie script.
I'm not even sure that I need to debunk this particular myth. > This is the core point. This is why the people of Eastern Ukraine have the moral high ground in their fight. This is why Russia is not an aggressor. So you're trying to tell us, that if false statements are propagated in the russian media, then you could hide the facts of Russian mercenaries fighting against Ukrainian forces, Russian tanks and APCs flow across border and FSB/KGB crooks in Ukraine in charge of terrorists? Do you honestly believe this could be hidden just because it was not shown on kremlin TV? > The coup government has also been waging war against the population of Crimea [2], "it's own population". Really? This is considered a 'war' right now? Ok, in this case Russia is waging war against Ukraine right now, by cutting it's gas supply. > And it also doesn't allow for every citizen from Crimea to freely enter Ukraine, some of them are sent back home Yes. It's called 'customs', are you aware what this means? |
