>ust ask Angela Merkel about their sincerity:
> In an interview published in Germany's Zeit magazine on Wednesday, former German chancellor Angela Merkel said that the Minsk agreements had been an attempt to "give Ukraine time" to build up its defences.
What's wrong with that? Obviously, you don't think anyone has a right to defend themselves against aggression from Russia.
- zmgsabst 3y agoThat’s obviously Ukraine and Western allies not implementing Minsk in good faith, as the post I was responding to claimed.
- Paradigma11 3y agoThe main Russian negotiator for the Minsk agreements also said he did not expect them to hold. So it was all a Russian tactic to prepare their invasion?
- dkjaudyeqooe 3y agoWhat does "good faith" mean in the context of being forced to negotiate after being invaded by a much stronger foe? Did Russia show "good faith" by backing the conflict in Donbas, lying about it and deploying their "little green men"?
