Way to incite fath in you allies

This vassal govt is being scammed by the US.... what do we need with tanks and what was wrong with the 'brand new' ones?

More unethical biased reporting by the most trusted name in news. No details, no context or evidence of any credibility. The images of Vehicle depots show no activity, no troops and the depots are at least 200 klm from Russian border. Of course The US has never lied to start war.

I would laugh if Ukraine decides to negotiate peace with Russia right now . It would be like a slap to Biden face . He worked hard to start this war .

Oh dear the west is still waiting for the Russians to invade. This is most unfair & unacceptable. All experts, thinktanks and other assorted riff raff have been predicting invasion for so long, Russia will not oblige. Terrible state of affairs. Nobody is getting killed that’s bad

And so it begins. The beginning of chaos to reign in the New World Order!

You left off the part about '...after the Ukranian Nazi brigade pummels Donbass with US-supplied weapons so badly that Russia is forced to step in to protect the hundreds of thousands of Russian passport holders that live there.'

US shit pans first of they own made up story about invasion..

EU should not let the US negotiate with the RUS for them. The US will not pay a hefty price if there's a war, on the other hand, the EU will.
