"The relationship between Russia and the West has spiraled downward since Moscow’s 2014 annexation of Crimea. Russia’s destabilization of Ukraine forced the alliance to reinforce its eastern flank with new troop deployments and military exercises." What a lame excuse to justify NATO expansion and to give more money to the private arms industries. Russia isn't about to attack Europe. The destabilization of Ukraine was not caused by Russia but by the US and EU who engineered the overthrow of the democratically elected president and replaced him with a nationalist regime that alienated the Russian speaking population in the east of the country as well the Crimea whose people overwhelmingly expressed a desire to rejoin Russia their historical motherland. Everyone knows that Russia will never give the Crimea to Ukraine anymore than the US will give the annexed Hawaii to its native population and Hawaii was never historically American. To demand the turning over of Crimea to Ukraine, knowing that is a non starter, shows that the US doesn’t want other than a hostile relation with Russia. This hypocrisy is underlined by the US supporting the annexation of the Golan Heights, a part of Syria, by Israel. Everything Putin has done since taking office has been a reaction to American provocation and the real international aggressor has been the US and its NATO puppet. These military provocations against Putin, as well the threats against other countries should be part of the presidential debates and all candidates should be quizzed on their positions re improving relations with Russia, China, Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela and whether they will demand that the murderer MBS crown prince of Saudi Arabia be held accountable for his actions.
