Republicans Spouting Russian Propaganda Is Frighteningly Embarrassing. Who Would Have Thought The Party Of National Security Was Just A Gullible #Cult45.
A Treasonous, Larsonist Bunch Of Sellouts.

@BryanDawsonUSA Got It Right. Russia Owns 45 #MoscowMitch

[Bryan Dawson🇺🇸 @BryanDawsonUSA]

Incredibly, Russia is telling the UN that Ukraine is an aggressor and an existential threat to Russia “about to attack Moscow.”

A reminder that Russia signed the #BudapestMemorandum guaranteeing security in exchange for Ukraine giving up its nuclear weapons.

In 1939, it was the Soviet Union and Germany that invaded Poland. In 1940, it was the Soviet Union that invaded the Baltic countries. In 1940, it was the Soviet Union that annexed parts of Romania. In 1956, it was the Soviet Union that invaded Hungary. In 1968, it was the Soviet Union that invaded Czechoslovakia.

Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Romania, Hungary or Czechoslovakia did not invade Muscovy or the Soviet Union. No threat emanated from these countries. But these countries were attacked by the USSR/Muscovy. Under Putin, it was Georgia, Moldova, and Ukraine who were attacked by Muscovy. This is why so many countries wanted to join NATO. Since joining NATO, none of the countries  who have joined NATO have been attacked by Muscovy.

An elementary observation is that the East European countries that managed to become members of NATO in time have been safe from Putin's aggression, while Ukraine & Georgia who failed to flee into safety in time were attacked by Muscovy in 2008, 2014, and 2022.

Kassa, Felvidék, former capital of the Upper Hungary region, now Košice, in #Slovakia after annexation at #Trianon. Part of Hungary since its founding in the 1200’s and over 75% Hungarian in 1910, it’s now just 3-4%, but the architectural and cultural legacy remains.

@DietmarPichler1 @AngelaRaeBoon1 Sorry, this is false. In exchange for boundary concessions with Hungary, Ukraine (Stalin annexed Transcarpathian Hungary to Ukraine), bilateral agreements ensured education in the “mother tongue.” Hungarians were caught in a law intended for Russians. https://t.co/KUSJQCFwFb
