It is intentional that they are not going to show on the news Putins reasons for invading. You won’t see him speaking and you won’t see quotes from him because they don’t want him to sway you even a little bit to his side. They might cherry pick 2-3 seconds to “catch” Putin saying something that will portray him negatively but they will never allow his reasoning to be spread. This keeps him an enemy. You might wonder why isn’t every country against this, and it because they do allow him to speak and at minimum create doubt in peoples mind on who is the bad guy. For instance, it’s unlikely you would have heard how Ukraine cut off water to Crimea which Russia took over previously, literally forcing people to starve because no water for crops. You probably wouldn’t have heard that Putin is comparing Ukrainians to Nazis in their treatment of Russians in Ukraine. If you heard only what Putin was saying and not what our media was saying you might even consider them the good guys. The problem is who is telling the truth here? The US explicitly said weeks before invasion that Russia is going to conduct a false flag operation as justification. Did that operation occur? I don’t know, because as I said we literally get no explanation presented to us by our media and that is the way they prefer it. Feeling for your enemy would make NATO and the US look like the bully, if their citizens were to believe Putin’s explanation or even see them to understand them.
