Comments by "Valen Ron" (@valenrn8657) on "War in Ukraine is not progressing how Putin ‘would’ve liked’" video.

@AbdullahKhan-dc3vi Putin: “Speaking of security guarantees … our actions will not depend upon the negotiations, they will depend on the unconditional compliance with Russian security demands”. The main articles of Russian draft proposed agreement demand included eight articles with the following points: Article 1: the parties should not strengthen their security at the expense of Russia’s security; Article 2: the parties will use multilateral consultations and the NATO-Russia Council to address points of conflict; Article 3: the parties reaffirm that they do not consider each other as adversaries and maintain a dialogue; Article 4: the parties shall not deploy military forces and weaponry on the territory of any of the other states in Europe in addition to any forces that were deployed as of May 27, 1997; Article 5: the parties shall not deploy land-based intermediate- and short-range missiles adjacent to the other parties; Article 6: all member States of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization commit themselves to refrain from any further enlargement of NATO, including the accession of Ukraine as well as other States; Article 7: the parties that are member States of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization shall not conduct any military activity on the territory of Ukraine as well as other States in the Eastern Europe, in the South Caucasus and in Central Asia; and Article 8: the agreement shall not be interpreted as affecting the primary responsibility of the Security Council of the United Nations for maintaining international peace and security. ---- Fact: many eastern European countries (from the Three Seas Initiative) have major PTSD issues against Russia. Romania's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Romania's freedom of association. Finland's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Finland's freedom of association. Estonia's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Estonia's freedom of association. Latvia's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Latvia's freedom of association. Lithuania's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Lithuania's freedom of association. Poland's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Poland's freedom of association. Bulgaria's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Bulgaria's freedom of association. Sweden's government has condemned Putin's demand to remove Sweden's freedom of association. Against Russian demands, Swedish Foreign Minister Ann Linde: "The Swedish security policy is determined by Sweden. Russia has nothing to do with our independent decisions”. There's nothing noble about territorial grabbing from another country like an "old school" European imperialist.

@seventhuser904 That's a false equivalence. Unlike Russia, the US did NOT assimilate Iraq, Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, and Yugoslavia into US federal structure. >Yugoslavia 9 February 1994: At UN request, NATO agreed to authorise air strikes, declared 20 km total exclusion zone around Sarajevo and required Bosnian Serbs to withdraw heavy weapons from zone or place them under UN control within 10 days; also called on Bosnian Government to place heavy weapons in Sarajevo under UN control. Agreement between 'RS' and Bosnian Government to a ceasefire in Sarajevo, negotiated by Lieutenant-General Sir Michael Rose, then Commander of UN forces in Bosnia. UN Security Council through UNSCR 836 of 4 June 1994 authorizes the use of air power to defend the safe areas created by UN Security Council resolution 824 of 6 May 1993. Paragraph 10 of UNSCR 836 stipulates: "...Member States, acting nationally or through regional organisations or arrangements, may take, under the authority of the Security Council and subject to close coordination with the Secretary-General and UNPROFOR, all necessary measures, through the use of air power, in and around the safe areas in the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, to support UNPROFOR in the performance of its mandate..." >Libya NATO STOPPED the bloody civil war in Libya. Putin STARTED the bloody war in Ukraine. On 16 August 2003, Libya formally admitted responsibility for Pan Am Flight 103 (Lockabie bombing) in a letter presented to the president of the United Nations Security Council. "On 10 March 2011, France was the first country in the world to recognise the National Transitional Council as the legitimate government of Libya". United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973 was adopted by the United Nations Security Council on 17 March 2011 in response to the First Libyan Civil War. The Security Council resolution was proposed by France, Lebanon, and the United Kingdom. Muammar Gaddafi played stupid games and win stupid prizes. The US supported France(EU)'s and UK(EU)'s, and Lebanon's United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973. NATO wasn't used until United Nations Security Council Resolution 1973 since it was vetoed by Turkey. If, however, you are referring to the NATO intervention in Libya, that was NATO agreeing to enforce a United Nations Security Council Resolution. It was never intended as a permanent expansion of the Alliance to embrace Libya nor to establish a NATO base in the country.

@45jacky77 False. Putin rejected Zelenski's Ukraine wouldn't be a NATO member deal. PARIS, Sept 14 (Reuters) - Vladimir Putin's chief envoy on Ukraine told the Russian leader as the war began that he had struck a provisional deal with Kyiv that would satisfy Russia's demand that Ukraine stay out of NATO, but Putin rejected it and pressed ahead with his military campaign, according to three people close to the Russian leadership.

@mk1479 > US and Eu troops actively fighting False. If the US military is directly involved in Ukrainian-Russian conflicts, US "Shock and Awe" and "Highway of Death" would be applied against the Russian military who fought like the Iraqi army.

@ozziecoops Iraq invaded Kuwait. Iraq attempted to annex Kuwait. If a country attempted to annex another country, the invading country that attempted to enlarge its territory (expansionist nationalism) should be prepared to be annexed by another country. Don't cry to me about moral superiority when Iraq doesn't have this position in the first place!

@mk1479 >Yeah, believe your own fairytale The real fairytale comes from Russia. I expected more from the Russian military.

@seventhuser904 Opinion Research Business (ORB) published an update to the survey on 28 January 2008, based on additional work carried out in rural areas of Iraq. Some 600 additional interviews were undertaken and as a result of this the death estimate was revised to 1,033,000 with a given range of 946,000 to 1,120,000 The Iraq Body Count project also rejected what they called the "hugely exaggerated death toll figures" of ORB, citing the Survey Research Methods paper, which Josh Dougherty of IBC co-wrote. IBC concluded that, "The pressing need is for more truth rooted in real experience, not the manipulation of numbers disconnected from reality." Attaching "OSCE" with 1 million claims is FALSE.

@ozziecoops Facts: 1. British government was kicked out of Australia. Australia Act 1986 formally severed all legal ties between Australia and the United Kingdom except for the figurehead monarchy. USSR wasn't the only European empire that disintegrated e.g. British, French, Spanish, Dutch, German, Italian, and Portuguese. 2. British convicts in Australia are rejected people by the British government. The British have thrown away undesirable people that they don't want! UK does NOT want its convicts back and Australians don't want the British government.

@ozziecoops To make it simple for you The UK is like Russia i.e. imperialist European government. Australia is like Ukraine i.e. rejected the imperialist European government. Unlike the UK, Russian Federation still has most of Imperial Russia's land territory. Any new relationship between UK and Australia has to be equal partners i.e. Australia will not tolerate being a subordinate under British authority. For CPTPP's entry, UK requested entry from Commonwealth member countries such as Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei. The UK has to cooperate as equal partners with Australia, Canada, and New Zealand i.e. the UK can't assume its old role in the new relationship. Russia's and Ukraine's relationship is in the 1776 phase and the English-speaking world has resolved UK's place in the grouping.

@ozziecoops On 24 April 2013, the district court of The Hague sentenced Dutch businessman Frans van Anraat to payment of damages to the victims of mustard-gas attacks in Iraq and Iran in the 1980s. Iraq's WMD issue is not yet finished when the Kurds are suing WMD profiteers in the European court system.

@ozziecoops Scott Ritter is an incompetent investigator who chicken out on investigating western businesses that profited from Iraqi WMDs. Date: March 2017 Kurdistan’s Interior Minister said on Tuesday the Regional Government since its formation had demanded from the federal government to pay compensation to the families of Kurdish victims who suffered genocide, killing, and displacement from the former Iraqi regime. Rebar Ahmed stressed during the Parliament session that in 2014 “we decided to announce Halabja as a governorate,… but perhaps the big problem facing Halabja is that Iraq is not yet ready to recognize it as a governorate. Therefore, the federal government did not allocate a financial budget for it.” Ahmed continued that when the first Kurdish delegation went to Baghdad, it delivered the Prime Minister a request to compensate the victims of the people of Kurdistan with 380 billion dollars for the crimes committed by Saddam Hussein's regime in Halabja, Anfal and to Barzanis, Faili Kurds, and all victims of Baath crimes. The Halabja chemical attack, also known as the Halabja Massacre or Bloody Friday was a massacre of Kurdish people that took place on 16 March 1988, during the closing days of the Iran–Iraq War in the Kurdish city of Halabja in Iraqi Kurdistan. The attack was part of the Al-Anfal Campaign in Kurdistan, as well as part of the Iraqi Army's attempt to repel the Iranian Operation Zafar 7. It took place 48 hours after the capture of the town by the Iranian Army. A United Nations (UN) medical investigation concluded that mustard gas was used in the attack, along with unidentified nerve agents. The incident was the largest chemical weapons attack directed against a civilian-populated area in history, killing between 3,200 and 5,000 people and injuring 7,000 to 10,000 more, most of them civilians. Preliminary results from surveys of the affected region showed an increased rate of cancer and birth defects in the years afterward. The Halabja attack has been officially defined by the Supreme Iraqi Criminal Tribunal as a genocidal massacre against the Kurdish people in Iraq -------- Iraq's WMD issue is not yet finished when the Kurds are suing WMD profiteers in the European court system.

@ozziecoops Former UN inspector due in court in sex case. STROUDSBURG, Pa.—A former United Nations weapons inspector who exchanged explicit online messages with a detective posing as a 15-year-old girl and then performed a sex act on himself in front of a webcam was sentenced Wednesday to at least 1 1/2 years in state prison. Scott Ritter, 50, was taken into custody immediately after Monroe County Judge Jennifer Sibum sentenced him to 18 to 66 months behind bars. It was the second time in eight years that Ritter, of Delmar, N.Y., found himself in legal trouble for trying to lure underage girls into illicit sex.

@ozziecoops Facts: 1. Queen/King of Australia is just a figurehead. 2. British government and court jurisdiction are meaningless in Australia. Australia's highest court is the High Court of Australia, NOT the British privy council. 3. The Australia Act (Cth and UK) 1986 eliminated the remaining possibilities for the UK to legislate with effect in Australia.

@ozziecoops >2nd they took Australia by terra nullius, look it up. Fact: British executive government was kicked out of Australia, look at Australia Act 1986. The British learns from the 1776 United States Declaration of Independence while the Slavic world remained in the 1776 era hot wars.

@ozziecoops >amazing the Hague has done nothing to America who has been in 76 wars since world war 2, not 1 sanction from anyone. The Hague has very little power to sanction anyone outside the Netherlands i.e. sanction is useless without backing it up with real firepower and economic power. For context, Hague is located in the Netherlands and a Dutch national was guilty of precursor supply for Iraqi WMDs. In terms of economic influence and military firepower, the Netherlands is weaker than Australia. Australia has access to FiveEyes, hence Australia has the influence (borrow ) to use US's economic power against individuals against Australia's own interest as long it's not in conflict with US's interest. Before Euromaidan, Russia successfully used political and economic leverage to dissuade Ukraine from signing the E.U. deal. In the months prior to the Vilnius summit, Russian President Vladimir Putin engaged in a trade war with Kyiv, blocking nearly all imports from Ukraine and cutting energy supplies to the country. In turn, this reduced Ukrainian exports by 25 percent and shrank the economy by 1.5 percent. Look at the mirror when Russia applied political and economic sanctions on Ukraine before Euromaidan. The US has the sovereign right to apply economic sanctions on Russia just as Russia applied economic sanctions on Ukraine! Canada, Australia, and Russia have resource-rich exports with similar GDPs.

@ozziecoops The Chile example, USSR has supported its Cuban proxy that in turn supported Marxist Salvador Allende. You're a hypocrite. Marxist Salvador Allende clashed with the right-wing parties that controlled Congress and with the judiciary. On 11 September 1973, the military moved to oust Allende in a coup d'état. Marxist Salvador Allende's presidential branch effectively declared war on the judiciary and right-wing majority governed Congress branches. During the 1970 Chilean presidential election, both the United States and the Soviet Union poured money into this election through their intelligence agencies and other sources. 💰KGB money was more precisely targeted. Allende made a personal request for Soviet money through his personal contact, KGB officer Svyatoslav Kuznetsov, who urgently came to Chile from Mexico City to help Allende. The original allocation of money for these elections through the KGB was $400,000, and an additional personal subsidy of $50,000 directly to Allende.[8] It is believed that help from KGB was a decisive factor, because Allende won by a narrow margin of 39,000 votes of a total of the 3 million cast. After the elections, the KGB director Yuri Andropov obtained permission for additional money and other resources from the Central Committee of the CPSU to ensure Allende victory in Congress. In his request on 24 October, he stated that KGB "will carry out measures designed to promote the consolidation of Allende's victory and his election to the post of President of the country". In your argument's summary, the USSR-supported regime change intervention is okay while the US intervention is bad. Your argument is hypocritical.

Read the Ukraine Constitution 1996, Article 17 that disallows foreign military bases after 2017. CONSTITUTION OF UKRAINE Adopted at the Fifth Session of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine on 28 June 1996 Article 17 The location of foreign military bases shall not be permitted on the territory of Ukraine. Yanukovych breached the Ukraine Constitution 1996, Article 17. After 2017, Ukraine's constitution is incompatible with foreign military bases hosting either NATO or CSTO. If Yanukovych didn't sign the military base rental extension, Russia would be kicked out of Crimea. Putin's narrative is FALSE.

@mk1479 In the third clip, a man can be heard explaining the Russian convoy was a few hundred meters away from target when the American forces raised their flag and hit the Russians with a heavy artillery barrage, wiping out the first column instantly. "We got our fucking asses beat rough, the Yankees made their point," he said. "What were they hoping for, that the Yankees are just going to fuck off?... It's bullshit, some people can't even be fucking ID'ed, too many people there." In another of the clips, a man claims, "There are about 215 fucking killed" on the Russian side. It has been reported that up to 300 Russians may have died in the strikes. The Kremlin initially denied all reports of Russians being involved in the incident. However, in recent days, Russia's foreign ministry has acknowledged that "several dozen" Russians were killed or wounded. ----- Mattis on Russian Mercenaries in Syria: I Ordered Their Annihilation

@mk1479 The second audio clip: “Out of all vehicles only one tank survived and one BRDM (Armored Reconnaissance Vehicle) after the attack, all other BRDMs and tanks were destroyed in the first minutes of the fight, right away.” The third audio clip: “Just had a call with a guy; so they basically formed a convoy, but did not get to their f*** positions by some three hundred meters. One unit moved forward, the convoy remained in place, about 300 meters from the others. The others raised the American f*** flag and their artillery started f*** ours really hard. Then their f*** choppers flew in and starter f*** everybody. Ours just running around. Just got a call from a pal, so there are about 215 f*** killed. They simply rolled ours out f*** hard. Made their point. What the f*** ours were hoping for in there?! That they will f*** run away themselves? Hoped to f*** scare them away? Lots of people f*** so bad [they] can’t be f*** ID-d. There was no foot soldiers [on the American side]; they simply f*** our convoy with artillery.”

@mk1479 Again, if you want to test NATO's direct intervention, tell Putin to withdraw the nuclear weapons threat. Putin's nuclear weapon threat is the only solution that stops NATO's direct intervention. You're the real fool.
