Trump Continues Biden’s Policies on Ukraine
A headine today says “Trump voices frustration with Putin, says ceasefire deadline will shorten”, and the story reports thaat Trump has intensified his threat against Russia by shortening his warning-period down from 50 days to 10 days. The thousands of reader-comments at that story at Yahoo News are intensely pro-Trump and anti-Putin, as-if Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022 had not been in response to the U.S. Government’s take-over of Ukraine (a country bordering Russia) on 20 February 2014 in a violent U.S. coup that U.S.-and-allied ‘news’ media reported instead as having been a democratic revolution in Ukraine. Ukraine is the nearest of all countries to Moscow and therefore the one nation that Russia’s Government had always said it would never allow to become a member-nation of NATO. Have the American (and allied) publics been blind to the actual history here? What were the Minsk Accords about? (The U.S. Government had no part in them but Russia’s Government did because they didn’t want to need to invade Ukraine in order to prevent that nation from joining NATO and placing American nuclear missiles a mere five minutes away from The Kremlin.) Then on 17 December 2021, Russia warned both NATO and America (though this too was not reported by U.S.-and-allied ‘news’-media) that if they didn’t stop their drive to get Ukraine into NATO, Russia would need to do what it must in order to prevent that. On 7 July 2022, both NATO and the U.S. responded by saying they’d never comply with any such demand on the part of Russia. It was as-if when JFK had threatenned Cuba and Moscow if Russia were to place its nukes in Cuba, the U.S. was the aggressor. But this time Putin is called by U.S.-and-allied media an aggressor for refusing too allow U.S. missiles in Ukraine to decapitate Russia’s central command. How stupid (and deceived) does the public have to be to believe that Putin was the aggressor on 24 February 2022?
I documented all of this in detail in an article on 6 March 2025, “Why America, the EU, and Ukraine, Should Lose to Russia in Ukra
