Some people believe that Nato eastward expansion as the direct cause of the war is just "Putin's propaganda."
They compare Putin to Hitler, arguing that appeasement is not warranted, and this is how they justify the endless war...
Every time they say propaganda, you can be very sure they are lying especially when it comes to Russia (e.g., Russia election collusion fabrication...). When Russia says "Niet" to NATO extension to Georgia and Ukraine, you know it cannot end well. This was 2008 or 2009 and part of revelations from wikileaks, instead of locking-up Julian Assange they should read what it said. Russia has not prepared its economy for a full war like Nazi Germany did in the 30s and Putin is not that stupid. It is a regional conflict that can be easily resolved if people sit on a table (which Russia and Ukraine did in Istanbul in March 2022 but that Biden and Johnson manage to sabotage), maybe it will happen again when the US have a president knowing where he is

Right my understanding was that Biden called Johnson and had him go to Istanbul to "talk to" (i.e., bribe) Zelinski, keeping Ukraine in the war and make himself rich. Then, Macron took over Johnson as master NATO lapdog because Ukrainian blood is not enough. There was even a Napoleon movie released in 2023 (i.e., 40000 out of 600000 men it back, army completely decimated) but apparently a Russian front is a good idea to some

Hopefully you are not one of the "some people". Let's think about the country who was involved in nearly every war in the last 20 years. And every war was build on lies. People who are still believing the official story are just lost.

"Putin's propaganda" is also very effective propaganda.
You are not allowed, as an independent observer, to view the situation from the other side's perspective, exercise critical thinking, and draw your own conclusions.
You owe allegiance to the State media only, and have to accept everything they say as the Gospel...
Lies every time since the Korean war and all the wars were lost, in what world is it possible that a country engaged in 80 years of wars and losing all of them is still a superpower? Well they don't defend their borders the racket and the blood versed happen overseas
