2 sides to what is going on in the Ukraine | Eastern North Carolina Now

From the Armstrong Economics blog

I’m definitely not for war. But for 8 years, since 2014, the Ukrainian government has murdered and bombed Russian people there. Especially the cities (Donetsk and Lugansk) that refused to accept the fascist government that the United States and the European Union imposed on you in 2014 with blood and violence.

Russians in Ukraine have since become a banned ethnic group. The Russian language is banned, Russian books were burned and all Russian channels, movies, etc. were shut down and banned. 

Even people who demonstrated then were shot and burned alive. Year after year it only got worse and worse.

A few months ago, Zelensky, who is now the pro-Western president of Ukraine, honored and recognized a famous terrorist / fascist as a Ukrainian hero. 

Dmytro Kotsyubaylo is a member of the right-wing sector and the goal of his life, which he says himself is to kill as many Russians as possible. 

In several interviews, he has said openly that his caged pet wolf he feeds with bones from Russian-speaking children.

About 20 million people are in eastern and southern Ukraine.

REPLY: I can verify that Dmytro Kotsyubaylo did indeed tell the press that he feeds the bones of Russian-speaking children to his pet wolf. Apparently, he said that with a laugh so it may be a joke that does reflect the attitudes of some and these are the neo-Nazis that Putin referred to. These are also the ultra-right-wing in Ukraine who Putin wants to be brought to justice.

Nevertheless, the Western press is so biased against Putin, this is the real problem. Nobody will even listen to the other side. A friend from Eastern Europe who I have known for more than 10 years and who has lived mostly in the West, is disgusted with the one-sided propaganda and just text me that they cannot wait to return to Serbia which is more pro-Russia.

I can confirm that Zelensky enacted the Ukrainian-only language, whereas Yanukovich wanted both languages to be official.

There are always 2 sides & we must listen to both.

How and why the US Government perpetrated the 2014 coup in Ukraine

Ukraine’s replacing its democratically elected neutralist Government in February 2014, by a rabidly anti-Russian Government, was a violent event, which produced many corpses. It’s presented in The West as having been a ‘revolution’ instead of a coup; but whatever it was, it certainly generated the ‘new Cold War’ (the economic sanctions and NATO buildup on Russia’s borders); and, to know whether it was a coup, or instead a revolution, is to know what actually started the ‘new Cold War’, and why. So, this is historically very important.

And don't forget the Minsk Agreement that for 8 years has not been honored by Ukraine.

None of this justifies the death and destruction that is taking place in the Ukraine, but it does explain the underlying boil that has been allowed to fester until it explodes.  

The US need to stop helping to over throwing democratically elected leaders around the world.  Past time the US Government concerns itself with our own borders and the invasion that is taking place on the southern border.
