Yulia Zhdanova, the new head of the Russian delegation at the Vienna talks on military security and arms control, revealed to Sputnik
Referring to the assessment of the foreign expert community,
So the only source, actually cited source, is a head of a negotiation team, of a country at war referring to its enemy? Very credible /s
Oh so we're admitting the US and its allies are directly at war with Russia now, are we? Tut tut you shouldn't talk down on plucky little Ukraine fending for itself like that.
Anyways, let's all calm down and focus on making the entirety of the Baltics uninhabitable with antipersonnel mines ๐ฅฐ
Oh are we? We are writing that Ukraine is at war with Russia. We think you might call it a special military operation, maybe? And we do think there would be no antipersonnel mines laid in Baltic's if not for Russian imperialism. Maybe if there was less Russian military in European countries outside of Russia there would be less excuse for militarization of neighboring countries or at least it would make it easier for local activists to push back against it? Just a wild concept we have.
Hmm where is Ukraine getting all of these weapons anyways?
Russian imperialism
That sounds really scary, what's imperialism? Could you try to define it? I need to become learned like you
"Bully News: Nerd's Lunch Money Probably Being Spent On Dorky Shit."
So, yeah, a story from a Russian government mouthpiece quoting a Russian government spokesperson spouting Russian government talking points that - deary me, oh my days, can you believe it, bless my soul, what are the odds, well I'll be - paints a negative image of the country the Russian government illegally and unjustifiably invaded. Or, maybe the oligarchy are just pissed off that the warlords aren't buying their weapons from them any more?

Very original dude. Ever heard of Operation Cyclone?
Ever heard of operation Sugm A?
Very sophomoric, matching your knowledge of history. Extremely amusing to pretend it would be crazy for the US to fund fascists in poorer countries, when it's the only reason Poland and the Baltic states even have their fake economies. Half of the events in the past 70 years have been instigated by the US funding some proxy force to secure resources.
You think they're not going to make a grab for the gold and uranium? Do you even remember what happened to Thomas Sankara, long before Ibrahim Traore?
Yeah, man. Taco Tuesday tomorrow. Can't wait.
