    Just the small problem of thousands of murdered eastern Ukrainians, and the Ukrainian state’s efforts to systematically suppress their political representation and their language.

    I think this can be covered with one source.

    George Washington Univ., 2017: NATO Expansion: What Gorbachev Heard Declassified documents show security assurances against NATO expansion to Soviet leaders from Baker, Bush, Genscher, Kohl, Gates, Mitterrand, Thatcher, Hurd, Major, and Woerner

    Because discussions between an administration and a head of state is now considered binding geopolitical contracts?

    Orinoco Tribune, 2022: Former German Chancellor Merkel Admits that Minsk Peace Agreements Were Part of Scheme for Ukraine to Buy Time to Prepare for War With Russia

    " the 2014 Minsk agreement was an attempt to give time to Ukraine. It…used this time to become stronger as can be seen today. The Ukraine of 2014-2015 is not the modern Ukraine.”

    Not a very intellectually honest interpretation from this “journalistic website”

    • Al Mayadeen, 2023: Zelensky admits he never intended to implement Minsk agreements

    I don’t see how not following through on the minsk agreement is really provoking a war when Russia has already broken The Budapest Memorandum.

    Jeffrey Sachs, 2023: NATO Chief Admits NATO Expansion Was Key to Russian Invasion of Ukraine

    "The background was that President Putin declared in the autumn of 2021, and actually sent a draft treaty that they wanted NATO to sign, to promise no more NATO enlargement. That was what he sent us. And was a pre-condition to not invade Ukraine. Of course, we didn’t sign that.The opposite happened. He wanted us to sign that promise, never to enlarge NATO. He wanted us to remove our military infrastructure in all Allies that have joined NATO since 1997, meaning half of NATO, all the Central and Eastern Europe, we should remove NATO from that part of our Alliance, introducing some kind of B, or second-class membership. We rejected that.So, he went to war to prevent NATO, more NATO, close to his borders. He has got the exact opposite.”

    Demanding the impossible…that NATO retract to levels back in the 90s and to prevent an invasion that had already happened is a bit far from “NATO Chief Admits NATO Expansion Was Key to Russian Invasion of Ukraine”

    The NATO chief was just repeating putina claims, not making claims.

    This is ridiculous and just a historical and dishonest.
