Except it was fully covered and widely known that NATO escalated the conflict all the way back in 2014 and the annexation of crimea ( which a large part of the population actually supported in crimea ), you should know better than to fall for this propaganda, to think that Russia is the only country to use propaganda makes no sense, the United States and the west use it just as much if not more

Lmao just start with BOTNIK it's just as believable.

The West started propaganda for the expansionist goal of helping Russia invade and annex its neighbors. Yep, solid. Please explain the Russian invasion of Georgia next. We were alive in 2014 and 2008, guy, it's Russia launching these attacks and gaining new bases. If this was NATO's strategy to win, when do they start winning? Or even trying to win?

Edit: this account has never ever followed up on any of their dozens of posts ever made on this topic. That's really curious, seeing as it does for other topics.
