    What a poorly written piece of garbage propaganda. It starts with the lie that the US started the in Ukraine, when it’s only Putin who wanted that war, and only Putin who can stop it. If it was a proxy war, would Trump be sucking up to Putin? If Ukraine was the US’s puppet, Trump’s surrender to Putin would have worked and Putin’s conquest would have been successful.

    Instead, the Russian economy is struggling because a million soldiers were sacrificed at the frontlines while many others fled the country. It’s only China propping them up that allows Russia to continue their pitiful war.

      the lie that the US started the in Ukraine

      That reasoning is simple. Putin lost his sock puppet in Ukraine in 2013 with the large protests. He blames the West and especially the USA for this by putting ideas of freedom in people’s head. Now, instead of having a sock puppet state he had to do things the hard way and invade. In Russian that translates to “They started the war”.
