Ahh yes, another "but the west" hit piece on Ukraine.
- AtlasBarfed 5y agoAgreed, I suppose that Ukraine constantly asking for arms and support is all propaganda by NATO. Or the fact we are holding back certains arms/support that Ukraine would love to have (no fly zone anyone? MiGs based in Poland?). Of course the West was 100% behind the overthrow of corrupt, vain, despot puppet Yanukovych. Ukraine totally wants to be a puppet state like Belarus, and the Baltics joining NATO is a big conspiracy against Moscow. The West/NATO would of course like a buffer state with Russia. Even better, a buffer state aligned with the West and not aligned with Russia. Even better, one that hates Russia and has trained up a million man army to resist the Russian invasion and then represents a credible threat to a weakened Putin. Ukraine has long been trod over by large invading and counterinvading armies since the Tatar/Mongols, Napoleon, Hitler, etc. It's a country with a tragic history of conquest and manipulation. I root for Ukraine because I think modern weaponry and a modern state would allow this country to stand up for itself, and it is.
