    Nevertheless Ukraine had physical control over these nuclear weapons although it couldn’t have launched them.

    That’s a self-contradictory statement. The weapons were located on the territory of Ukraine, but Ukraine never had any legal possession of the weapons or the launch codes.

    In hindsight that was probably a mistake and the west should have used Russia’s weakness to break Crimea and the black sea fleet out of Russia’s hands for good to avoid future conflict and cripple Russia’s geopolitical ambitions which where always fueled by paranoia.

    More false narrative here. The conflict is a direct result of NATO expansion, as Stoltenberg himself admitted. This has nothing to do with Russia’s geopolitical ambitions, and it’s obviously not paranoia when it’s openly admitted. Stop lying.

    Russia can’t be trusted to adhere to the contracts they sign. They will even invade and terrorise a country they themselves called “brothers” for a long time. It’s utterly shameful and all you have to say about this is “bUt nAtO DiD bAd tHiNgS!!1”.

    Seems like plenty of countries have no problems making contracts with Russia. All the problems are invariably in relation to NATO and the west. It’s pretty clear that NATO who promised not to move one inch east and then broke that promise consistently for decades is the party that can’t be trusted.

    I love how all you do here is just regurgitate nonsense you’ve memorized, but we now have ample evidence that all of these talking points are completely false. Either you’re lying intentionally here or you’re just a useful idiot for the empire.

      It’s not contradictory but thanks for repeating my sentence with different wording.

      Sovereign countries can choose their alliances freely. Of course it’s Russian paranoia to be fearful of the NATO expansion. NATO would not start WW3 by invading Russia. And NATO expansion is the direct consequence of Russian imperialism. Russia’s neighbors are afraid of Russia which has proven time and time again that it can and will use military force to subjugate it’s neighbors. We’ve seen it under the reign of the Tsar. We’ve seen it during soviet times and we’ve seen it in modern Russia with Chechenia, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine… You have to be willingly blind to overlook all these cases of military aggression out of paranoia and megalomania. Do you think the largest country on earth was created by peaceful negotiations and hugs? It’s absolutely ridiculous.

      Your “ample evidence” is fabricated by the spin doctors in Moscow. Congratulations for drinking up that propaganda so willingly.

        Absolutely is, using your galaxy brain logic every country occupied by US and hosting US bases owns them too right?

        Sovereign countries can choose their alliances freely.

        It’s true, unfortunately for the countries that fall under US control, their sovereignty goes out of the window. And in extreme cases such as Ukraine, US even overthrows their governments to put in compliant puppet regimes.

        Of course it’s Russian paranoia to be fearful of the NATO expansion.

        NATO has a demonstrated record of invading countries and has an openly hostile stance towards Russia. The fact that you keep calling this paranoia continues to expose your intellectual dishonesty.

        Of course it’s Russian paranoia to be fearful of the NATO expansion.

        See, there you go ignoring reality of NATO again because it doesn’t fit into your propaganda narrative.

        Russia’s neighbors are afraid of Russia which has proven time and time again that it can and will use military force to subjugate it’s neighbors.

        One problem with this narrative of yours is that the problem only seems to occur in countries that have been politically captured by US. All of Russia’s eastern neighbours seem to be getting along with Russia just fine.

        You have to be willingly blind to overlook all these cases of military aggression out of paranoia and megalomania.

        You have to be either a liar or an ignoramus to frame these cases the way you did.

        Your “ample evidence” is fabricated by the spin doctors in Moscow. Congratulations for drinking up that propaganda so willingly.

        Ah yes, spin doctors in Moscow such as Jens Stoltenberg and Loyd Austin. 🤡

        There’s very little point continuing this discussion since all you’re capable of doing is regurgitating the script you’ve memorized.

        Bye.
