As Moscow faced a potentially violent insurrection from Russia's mercenary Wagner Group, Ukraine officials say they gained ground.

    Exactly the same excuse Russia used to intervene in Ukraine.

      @yogthos oh, it was the same excuse. The difference was there was no genocide in Ukraine like there was in Yugoslavia.

        wrong as usual

        • Milosevic was exonerated by the International Tribunal, but since western media didn’t report on it I can see how you missed it https://www.telesurenglish.net/news/Milosevic-Exonerated-By-International-Tribunal-Media-is-Silent-20160808-0003.html

        Meanwhile, plenty of evidence of ethnic cleansing happening in Ukraine after western backed coup in 2014

          @yogthos I didn’t say anything about Slobodan Milosevic. I said Yugoslavia was bombed to stop genocide. Milosevic was exonerated because they could find no link between him and the genocide. But the genocide was still taking place under his watch and that’s why Yugoslavia was bombed. In that regard, he’s irrelevant. Yugoslavia was bombed to stop the genocide and it worked. In Ukraine, Russia is the one doing the murdering and war crimes.

            There’s a lot more concrete evidence for the genocide in Donbas that Ukraine was conducting since 2014, but you keep on going.

          @yogthos also, there have been no credible reports that Ukrainians were doing any kind of ethnic cleansing or genocide prior to Russian invasions. There have been made-up reports by Kremlin backed groups, claiming Ukrainian genocide. All of which, crumble under any inspection, or attempt to validate its legitimacy.

            Literally linked those credible reports in an earlier reply, but keep on going there.

              @yogthos dude, literally, the first link you shared was a known communist propaganda outlet that is sponsored by the governments of Venezuela, Bolivia, Cuba, and Nicaragua. You’ll have to forgive me if I don’t put much stock in the propaganda links you provided.

                Oh, I’m sorry I shared something that’s outside of your prescribed genocidal empire propaganda diet.

                  @yogthos lol inside or outside doesn’t matter. Facts matter. And this is a routinely misleading outlet. It’s no wonder you’re clueless about international affairs. 😂🤷‍♂️

                    You’ve amply demonstrated in this very thread that you don’t care one bit about facts. Next, you’re gonna tell me that research gate is a propagnada outlet. You’re a liar and a clown, and everybody reading this thread can see that. Bye.
