On Feb. 24, 2022, I—Vladimir Putin—sent troops into Ukraine to conduct a special military operation. As the president of Russia, I obviously expected resistance from leaders of certain key world powers, but I must say I’ve been surprised at how the United States, specifically, has reacted.
Actually, what am I saying? It’s not like you’ve intervened. You haven’t established a no-fly zone, and you’re certainly not going to let Ukraine into NATO. The most you’ve done is send weapons, which only prolongs this. So maybe you do love it?
TRUE. Can we stop pretending like weapons will fucking solve this?
Letting the Russian government oppress Ukraine won't solve this either. We'd all prefer no fighting, but fighting is better than letting Russia bully their way.
Holy fuck, obviously Russia isn't going to try and single-handedly take on all of NATO. They'd have to back off which is why the US is sending weapons instead of deescalation, because "defense" and weapons is one of the biggest drivers of the US economy.
This is so funny because Russia has the most advanced military in the world. Particularly hypersonic missiles, which the u.s. wont have for years. And working missile defense systems.
And no need to lie to people, create false flags, actually controlling a city in lesser time without some country that carpet bombs and still takes more time to conquer, and has insane weaponry without taking healthcare and other citizen amenities away with every annual budget.
