Total bullsh*t propaganda throughout!
What 'motivated' Putin to go into Ukraine was the 2,000 ceasefire breaches a day, as the UA began shelling the people of Donbas, recorded by the OSCE on 20th, 21st and 22nd Feb '22. On 24th Feb, as requested under Article 51 of the UN Charter, Russia stepped in to stop it.
The use of Storm Shadow missiles against civilian targets in Luhansk is a war crime.
Seizing Russia's $300bn dollars would be against international law.
The EU's latest 50bn Euros has already been largely earmarked for 'foreign investment in arms manufacturing in Ukraine' - it's being given to the military industrial complex!
Russia targeted the electrical grid to disrupt trains carrying weapons, ammunition and troops to the frontline - NOT against the civilian population!
The UA is already in retreat, losing 20,000 troops per month (same figures from Gen Zaluzhny, Western analysts, Russian MOD) Another 795 troops yesterday alone!
Ukraine is bankrupt, can never afford to pay the debts Zelensky has built up, and what area remains Ukraine will not be viable as a country after the conflict is over!
