Putin on many occasions made it clear their mission was to never seize Ukraine

What Putin Wants From Ukraine

The fact is that there have been many speeches over the years by Putin acknowledging full Ukrainian sovereignty since the 1991 breakup of the former Soviet Union, an authoritarian state in which Ukrainian Communists had played a major leadership role. Putin consistently has asked for two things of Ukraine.

• First, decent good-neighborly relations based on mutual respect and mutual security, as between the U.S. and Canada.

•And second, as in Canada, respect for the full human rights of Ukraine’s numerous – the 50-percent-plus of Ukrainians who share Russian native language and culture. This importantly includes a right to share in the formation of Ukraine’s national security policies and priorities. But the U.S. has at least since 2013 used Ukraine’s Nazis, and there are plenty of those, as the spearhead of its determination to make Ukraine monocultural, militarized and permanently hostile to Russia.

Just because Putin asserts these things does not mean they are not true. I believe they are true. In he end they could not halt the determination of Washington and Kiev foolishly to provoke the Russian bear.

Over months,Putin had warned the West to step backwards from the militarization of Ukraine, and to work with Russia towards a wider European settlement, reversing NATO’s dangerous expansion towards Russia’s borders since 1996.

As usual, the West cherry-picked, they prevaricated and – the biggest Western blunder of all – Washington’s Joe Biden supplied powerful city-destroying heavy weapons to the ill-disciplined and Nazi-infected Ukrainian army. The temptation to start using them was irresistible.

We saw from Feb. 17 onwards a determined, very threatening, but foolish attempt by Kiev’s armed forces along the line of contact, including the notorious Azov Battalion, to advance into and occupy Donbass, under the noses of the 130,000 Russian troops waiting for orders in nearby Russia….

Putin Recognizes Donbass Independence as Violence Soars

February 21, 2022

Russian President Vladimir Putin has recognized the independence from Ukraine of two breakaway provinces in Donbass as violence in the region continues to escalate.

 

In Monday evening televised remarks after signing decrees recognizing the independence of Lugansk and Donetsk, Putin denounced the government of Ukraine as “puppets” of the United States. He said:

 

“As for those who captured and are holding on to power in Kiev, we demand that they immediately cease military action. If not, the complete responsibility for the possibility of a continuation of bloodshed will be fully and wholly on the conscience of the regime ruling the territory of Ukraine.”

 

After Putin had spoken by phone earlier on Monday with French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Monday, the Kremlin issued this statement:

 

“The president of Russia said that he intended to sign the relevant decree in the near future. The president of France and the Federal Chancellor of Germany expressed their disappointment with this development. At the same time, they indicated their readiness to continue contacts.”

 

The Duma last week passed a resolution recommending that Putin recognize the provinces’ independence from Ukraine.

 

Putin had resisted for eight years recognizing the independence of the self-declared republics of Lugansk and Donetsk in the Donbass, insisting instead that Kiev implement the 2014-15 Minsk agreementsthat would have given autonomy to the provinces, while they remained within Ukrainian territory.

 

The decision by Putin effectively declares that the Minsk process is over.

 

It does not mean at this point, however, that the people of Lugansk and Donetsk are ready to hold a referendum to join Russiaor that Moscow is interested in making them part of Russia, as happened in Crimea in 2014….

Why Putin Went to War

February 24, 2022

 

Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a TV address Thursday morning that the goal of Russia’s military operation was not to take control of Ukraine.

 

butto “demilitarize” and “de-Nazify” the country. Moments after he spoke, explosions were heard in several Ukrainian cities.

 

The Russian Defense Ministry said these were “precision” attacks against Ukrainian military installations and that civilians were not being targeted.

 

It said Ukraine’s air force on the ground and its air defenses had been destroyed.

 

The Ukrainian government, which declared a state of emergency and broke off diplomatic relations with Russia, said an invasion was underway and that Russia had landed forces at the port city of Odessa, on Ukraine’s Black Sea coast, as well as entering from Belarus in the north. It said it had killed 50 Russian troops and shot down six Russian fighter jets, which Russia denied.

 

Putin said one of the operation’s aimswas to arrest certain peoplein Ukraine, likely the neo-Nazis who burned dozens of unarmed people alive in a building in Odessa in 2014.

 

In his speech Monday, Putin saidMoscow knows who they are.

 

Russia said it aims to destroy neo-Nazi brigades, such as Right Sector and the Azov Battalion.

 

Putin said the aim was not to occupy Ukraine, but he gave no indication when Russia might leave. It could be over quickly if Russia’s objectives are met. But war has its own logic and often lays waste to military plans.

 

The BBC reported that according to Ukrainian authorities 50 civilians have been killed so far. President Joe Biden is certain how this will turn out…..

The bad penny syndrome happened here. Never go back to government when youre out.

 

I liked Barr too!

 

God bless he did the right thing going out the door. Still perplexing to me why he never officially resigned though.

Aleppo was the stark example of what could have happened. Now Russia has given the green light to Donbass independence, protected by Russian military might, as was the case in Crimea.

But Putin had no alternative: in the end, he had to defend Russians at grave risk abroad, with real threats to their lives as reported by OSCE and Russian intelligence. The Minsk Accords are now dead. These steps already seem irreversible. But then, Kiev nationalists, quietly backed by NATO, had reneged on Minsk, confident that in the end they could achieve the unitary Ukraine they wanted by letting the Minsk Accords be forgotten.Now, ironically, Kiev pleads in the UNSC for a return to the Minsk Accords. But this train has already left the station.
