Did Russia invade Ukraine?
It’s a pretty simple question I had for the Deputy Secretary of Defense nominee. It’s an obvious “yes” to everyone except this administration.
JD Vance just referred to the russian invasion of Ukraine as an 'ethnic rivalry.'
The so-called 'ethnic rivalry' entails dozens of towns and villages being razed to the ground. People under occupation are executed for being Ukrainian and buried in mass graves. Tens of thousands of children have been kidnapped, rape and torture are used as weapons of war, everything is looted down to the bare walls, entire ecosystems are being destroyed, and so much more devastation is inflicted by russia upon a country that is only guilty of existing next to russia.
Prepare for the next phase, where russia—via the US—proposes an unacceptable deal with no real concessions, knowing Ukraine will reject it. Trump and his administration will then shift the blame onto Ukraine for refusing to end the war
