  1. Very close to the conflict area and the Russian border, military transport too.....I wouldn't rule out its been shot down, wouldn't be the first time

  2.  Somarik Green  no all they recorded and then edited was a conversation regarding who they thought would make a good leader, have you actually listened to it? As for Iran did the Iranian's compensate the west for all the money they lost when they took control of oil industry? Do you know who Sergey Aksyonov is? Crimean politician who was Pro-Russian in the last actually free parliamentary elections in Crimea his party managed just 4% In 2014 when Putin seized control of Crimea he removed the elected Prime Minister and installed this guy and to think people like you talk about a coup in Kiev? 😁 At least in Ukraine, the free part they actually get to vote for their leaders. Of course there's all the puppet governments the Soviet Union installed after WWII, some things never change

  3. There's no shortage of evidence that the BUK came from Russia. As for Salisbury, two Russian men go to the expense and trouble to visit The UK for two days and just happen to leave on the day of the poisoning? 😁

  4.  @destructiveanalytics  "I think we're in play" simply referred to the US being ready to offer its services as a mediator. The conflict in Ukraine is a direct result of Putin not wanting to see yet another former Soviet state join the west. If you watched the situation unfold at the time you'd know Putin used economic blackmail against Ukraine to try and stop them leaving the Russian sphere of influence, yet all you can talk about is two US diplomats discussing who they thought would make a good leader Putin has a long history of using economic blackmail to try and get his way, he's done even to Belarus in the past

  5.  @ENGLISHMURPHY  zero evidence on both, but knock yourself out trying to find some. Lukashenko claims that NATO forces are on his border, so why hasn't he provided evidence? Similar situation with Ukraine, but it's just kremlin propaganda. Most former Soviet states and Warsaw Pact countries have turned their backs on Russia and joined NATO, no riots? Your problem is you just don't know how Putin thinks, he's desperate to stop any more turning their backs on Russia. He wanted Ukraine to join his Eurasian Union but very few people in Ukraine wanted to, so now they've suddenly all become Nazi's? Odd that he didn't have a problem with them until the president of Ukraine said that he was going to sign an association agreement with the EU, Putin said that this would mean that Ukraine could not have free trade with Russia, so why is Putin trying to arrange free trade with Turkey? The guy is nothing more than a dictator. The only coup that happened was in Crimea where Russian troops seized control of the Crimean parliament and removed the elected Prime Minister.... Now explain why that was acceptable? I guarantee I know far more about Russia than yourself.

  6. And you know that because?

  7.  @philthompson8574  no they didn't finance anything, I've heard these claims and not one person such as you has ever come up with evidence. As for right-wing at the election the right-wing parties only managed around 10% As for the elected leader he was elected on a promise to sign an association agreement with the EU, but of course Putin wasn't happy with that so he used economic blackmail and probably bribery to stop that. Putin claimed that Ukraine could not have free trade with Russia if they signed the agreement. Now explain this Turkey has an agreement with the EU yet Putin entered into free trade talks with them, little hypocritical? You do know why the US became involved in Vietnam? It was because the Soviet Union wanted to turn it communist same as they did in North Korea and that's not exactly worked out well. Don't bother trying to disassociate Russia from all of this, because if happy to take credit for the good things the Soviet Union did then they must also take credit for the bad things and believe me they did a lot of bad things particularly in eastern Europe. Now go away and think about all that.

  9. You do know Russia operates the same type?

  10.  Truth God  that myth was debunked years ago

  11.  @destructiveanalytics  two US diplomats talking about who they'd like to see in charge, are you seriously suggesting that similar conversations wouldn't be going on in the kremlin? You need to understand that at the time the majority of Ukrainians were tired of the corruption and poverty they looked at countries such as Poland and the Baltic states and they see how far the Ukrainian economy had fallen behind the problem was Putin just doesn't want to let them go

  14.  @philthompson8574  you mean like what happens in Russia and Belarus? https://properm.ru/news/society/169032/

  15.  @philthompson8574  and you've been to these countries? I can't say I've been to Belarus but there's not exactly a lack of evidence for what goes on, Lukashenko doesn't even try hiding it. But I have spent a lot of time in Russia, it appears that you haven't

  16. Nefarious purposes? Wake up Russia is the enemy of freedom but of course if you don't like freedom you can always book yourself a one way ticket and go live there
