OP linked a Reuters post citing OSCE numbers. This organisation includes most European countries, US and Russia among others.
If we can’t listen to est neither to west, who should we listen ? You, my Colonel ?
- The_Colonel 3y agoWell, have you read the article? It just states that the intensity of shelling intensified, which is not very surprising 5 days before the invasion? The article did not mention who intensified the shelling in the first place, but states that the only civilian casualty happened on the Kyiv government controlled territory. Please explain to me, how is this proof that Ukraine wanted to invade.
- aziaziazi 3y agoShelling 5 days before an invasion reads to me: “shelling is the (or a) cause of the invasion”, not “invasion is the cause of the precedent shelling”. Like “causality happens before consequence”. However I’m far from being familiar with politico-military strategies and am here to learn. Please accept my excuse for the cynical tone of my precedent message.
- The_Colonel 3y agoThen how is it possible that Russians started the build up of forces around Ukrainian borders months before this increased rate of shelling? https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/russia-ukraine-invasion/2021/12/03/98a3760e-546b-11ec-8769-2f4ecdf7a2ad_story.html https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/russia-ukra...
