President Biden took aim at Russia at the UN General Assembly in New York on Tuesday in a speech that revealed US hypocrisy on the war in Ukraine and other issues.
Discussing arms control, President Biden accused Russia of “shredding longstanding arms control agreements,” mentioning that Moscow suspended its participation in New START, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the US and Russia.
Biden’s rhetoric omits the fact that the US withdrew from several arms control treaties in the years leading up to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In 2019, the Trump administration pulled out of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, which banned ground-launched short and medium-range missiles.
In 2020, the US exited Open Skies, a treaty that allowed the US, Russia, and other signatories to conduct unarmed surveillance flights over each other’s territory. At the time, then-presidential candidate Biden slammed the move, but his administration declined Russia’s offer to salvage the treaty in 2021.
Back in 2002, the George W. Bush administration pulled out of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Systems Treaty, which Russian President Vladimir Putin has cited as the reason for developing the Sarmat ICBM, Russia’s most powerful missile that can pack a huge nuclear payload and travel 11,000 miles. A Russian official recently said the Sarmat was placed on combat duty for the first time.
Shifting to the war in Ukraine, President Biden called the conflict “an illegal war of conquest, brought without provocation by Russia against its neighbor, Ukraine.” While Biden claims the war was unprovoked, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg recently acknowledged that Putin invaded to prevent Ukraine from joining NATO after the US and the alliance refused to provide a guarantee that Kyiv would never become a member.
“Russia alone bears responsibility for this war. Russia alone has the power to end this war immediately. And it is Russia alone that stands in the way of peace,” Biden said. In the early days of the war, the US and its allies discouraged peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said that one goal of US involvement in the conflict was to “weaken” Russia. Ahead of Ukraine’s counteroffensive — which US officials expected not to succeed — Secretary of State Antony Blinken rejected the idea of a ceasefire in Ukraine.
Biden urged for continued support for Ukraine in its war against Russia, saying an aggressor cannot be appeased and that Ukraine can’t give up its territory. “If we allow Ukraine to be carved up, is the independence of any nation secure?”
Biden administration officials often say territorial borders cannot change under international law when explaining their opposition to a peace deal that would involve Ukraine ceding territory to Russia. But as a senator, President Biden was a staunch supporter of the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, which broke up the country and carved Kosovo out of Serb territory. To this day, Kosovo is not recognized by much of the world, including ethnic Serbs living within Kosovo’s borders.
Biden also led the charge in the Senate before the 2003 invasion of Iraq to whip up Democratic support for the aggressive war that was based on the lie that Saddam Hussein possessed WMDs. In 2006, then-Senator Biden proposed carving Iraq into three regions based on ethnic and religious divisions, a plan he devised with the help of one of his Senate aides, Antony Blinken.
Great article! It’s too bad that so many people don’t want to read this or hear about it but instead prefer to believe the lies the Neocons tell.
The truth is too unpleasant for the ordinary citizens of US and EU. Most of them prefer to live in the fantasy world created for them by the corporate media and Hollywood.
Helped out by liberal amounts of drugs and alcohol,gambling and pornography.
Drugs help to keep the population under control of the oligarchy. That’s why they are keeping the border open for narco-dealers.
Because if we closed down the borders the drugs will go away. Americans are being forced to use drugs after all.
I appreciate your exquisite sarcasm.
Humongous profits also enter the picture.
It is a subtle fact with educational standards fading nobody reads very much and certainly not the truth about the dangers we face. One can and should not waste your time reading or watching the MSM. The truth can be found elsewhere.
That’s true, but it’s not about education. It’s about the Ugly American attitude that the U.S. can do whatever it wants, but other countries also have to do what the U.S. wants.
It destroys the Anti Russian narrative that`s why so many people / sheep grave on Western Propaganda , they just can`t admit they have been conned yet again.
It is easier to convince people of a lie than it is to convince them that they have been lied to. No one wants to admit that they have been duped.
It is quite remarkable that the staggering hypocrisy of neocons is supported wholeheartedly by all NATO members. The west-European civilization got in a deep crisis. The current moral degradation is accepted as normal even by the ordinary people. No one should be surprised that the rest of the world is looking at BRICS with a great hope.
I hope that the differences between cultures does not wind up in a cataclysmic war between the forces of evil{The US and its Allies} and the hopes of BRICS {the rest of the World}. Things are not looking hopeful.. BRICS needs time to develop its power and the US will not be inclined to give it to them. Possibly before 2025.
BRICS is stronger than NATO though it is not a military alliance. BRICS countries are quite capable to decide themselves their own future.
Let every caring,thinking human make it so
I am more hopeful. These are conflicts between producing world and money-based economies of the West. Producing economies are conflict averse. Money-based are conflict seeking.
It worked in the world when technigical differences between West and the rest of the world were immense. Capital was then placed into both industrial develooment and colonizing/trade. This was the formula that propelled US to unmatched capacities in production.
But the predatory nature of Westerm trade and investments in the world fostered changes, and the push for economic development and industrialization came as a result, After WWII and throughout Cold War, scientific and technoligical battles intensified.
Western powers made gradual shift from industry and science based economic development to financial and service industry.
It received its first jolt when Soviet Union mastered nuclear technology, invented satelite, and put a person in space. But after the end of Cold War complacency and financiaal excesses in US came back with vengeance. The idea that Soviet Union is gone, and China had no choice but to manage factories and supply us with cheap goods took hold.
Did not work out. Russia. even with all chaos, managed to maintain scientific and technological capacities. Not in consumer goods, but in basic indistries. Metals, new alloys, chemical industry, ship building and military,
The way our media works, one would think that Russia fell behind in space. It is amazing. Russia built a fist space station, took it down, then built this one we keep on sending astronauts to. Russia built its core, command and control centrr, life support mechanisms, space craft docking
station, Basically all that counts. US then added another docking station. added labs.
But folliwing Shuttle demise, it was up to Russia to supply Station with their vehicles, as well as ferry people back and forth until Musk Space X Crew Dragon brought first American astronaurlts on board on an American ship in nearly ten years.
We are trying to get critical industries back to US – a good start, But it is accompanied by trade embargoes on large compretotor, and China and Russia, and many others, China in the name of unfair trade, Rusia in the name of unheard of sin — military intervention.
When trade embargoes are used to stiifle competitors, there are unintended blowbacks, We will be deprived of materials, components and many future innovations. Science will not be shared, something we were beneficiary of. Propaganda meant to improve moral at home in the end does not work. It creates a false impression of own capabilities and the rest of the world.
The political circus does not help. It seems that we have two opposing ideas of how to go about solving our manifold problems, One is — tell the world we are agressive and dangerous, and they will acquiesce to our wishes. Thus we pushed all buttons in Ukraine until Russia pushed back,. We ae pushing all buttons in China as well. But we are in a different world.
What happened when Russia pushed back — and has every intention to stay the course, and US cannot do anything about it?
Countries like Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Argentina, Mexico, Ethiopia, South Africa, Iran or UAE — are showing remarkable disobedience. Start punishing them! Stop deluvery of weapins to Saudi Arabia, take away money given to Egyptian military and give it to Taiwan. Tell Mexico we will invade to prevent those drug cartels forcing Americans to take drugs, and in it goes.
And what about heavyweights India and Brazil?
Well, folliwing Biden’s victorious trip, India ordered over 20 Russian Sukhoi warplaness, Here comes reliable Trudeau to accuse India of a — killing a disiodent! That was tried in Saudi Arabia. Considering how ignorant Americans are about the embarrassing outcome of Kashoggi murder ,once the trial of culprits revealed the connection to our favorite MB Nayaf – why not try the same trick again.
Consequences? Saudis turning to China and Russia. From Evypt to Gulf of Oman US lost influence, It is a whack-a—mole exercise now,
And whatvwill those LESS agressive do? Focus all guns on China. There is still no political understandinb in US or our close ally UK of global realities. In Ukraine, it is no linget up to Zelenski, It is Biden move.
And he came up with a doozy, Ukraine hit a target in — Sudan! Supposedly. hitting Wagner facility helping rebels! What was supposed to be a take away? See, bad Rusdians are helping rebels against your army and we are bere to help!
Natirally, if people in Sudan are intellectually inferior that may have worked. Everybody knows what is up, cannot fool natives any more, Egypt that receives Russian armaments is openly helping Sudanese government. Such stunts are dangerous. I seriously doubt Biden knows what has been happening.
Quite impressive piece of writing,my applause.
What they are scared of is America taking all it`s war toy`s states side , that will mean they have to build their own security from scratch which will cost billions they don`t have , basically for being US LACKEYS they get free security .
Security against whom? What is/was the real threat to Europe? Don’t say Russia, ’cause Russia just wanted to be integrated into European trade. US blew that up and is doing its best to try and ensure at least one enemy for Europe.
The real existential threat to US (and UK) was not war with Russia, but EU peace and normal relations with Russia.
Peaceful coexistence and economic cooperation between EU and Russia is the threat only to US imperialism.
The question is how will the US and its partners respond to the rise of BRICS. I suspect a quick strike will be considered.?
The sad fact is – people do not count. As once said, give me control of your money — I do nit care who writes your laws. Nothing has changed since. Money is power, and power directs the moral sensibilities of nation. Alternative sources of power is unity secured through shared identity and history. Be that through clan loyalty in various forms (dukes, earls, sheiks, boyars, etc) or Confucian meritocracy under a center of unity (emperor, tzar, president). One should not forget that continental Eurasia has much more in common than its diversity suggests. Mongol rule in China and its spread over Eurasia and Russia spread Confucian concept of competence in bureaucracy,. Meritocracy took roots, and despite its weaknesses and potential for corruption, bureaucracies remained at the core. Russia and China historically have much more in common.
Differences betwern money based power controling society and identity/history based power are many. Since money based power does not really care about substance, it has only ideology as means of unifying. Be that Hollywood ‘s Americsn dream, human rights crusades creating political dramas, or social reengineering through celebrating new lifestyles with an eye on happy eugenics.
Do people count? Perhaps, indirectly.
When a dominant power weakens it causes ripple effect far and wide, as it usually is the economic engine affecting many far and wide. Egypt’s weakening as New Dynasty fell into chaos hastened the end of bronze age, end of seafaring Mycaenian civilization, Hitites, Ugarit, and seafaring people’s fight for the remainder of trading colonies pie.
Then, weakening and eventual end of Greek power under Roman might, ended rich trade around Black Sea and Mediterranean. While Rome rose in Mediterranean, Black Sea coast was open to spread of farmers from European plains, from Baltic to Balkans to Caucases.
Amazingly this is still called Ostrogotic or Visigothic migrations even though 90% were Slavic as attested by their names well documented in Greek writings.
As Napoleon said, history is a set of lies everybody agrees to. Migrations in the period of Roman decline are well known. Then European colonial power decline brough about migrations in search of better life. Spanish, British exits folliwed by French exit are testament of oh how migrations follow weakening of a dominant power that no longer can sustain projection of economic or even military power.
Today, we see American power declining, and organizationns of alternative economic interestsc sprouting.
People power is in adapting to changes. Be that migrations or changes in economic decisions , cumulative change, Whenever there is a revolution, there is always a group of interests behind.
People – even if clealy opising rulers, are ignored. Even in democracy — whatever that means. In Europe today. there is no country where people actually approve policies of tge government and their enablers. It is SO clear who the cheerleaders of the disasterous policies are. They have a small circle of supporters -/ careerists or just attention seekers.
Yet, in your face arrogance of power.
Here even worse. They created a false dichotomy vetween “good Ukraine supporting guys “ and bad Trump supporters. Creating an illusory alternative, a convenient straw nan to burn on the stakes of mighy justice. Hoarding
more power for the “.in” people.
States individually must embark upon reforms — economic and social — to create foundations for a healthier social and economic future. Federal government is structured to protect money interests and no positive change can occur.
What are the drawbacks of states- led reforms? That other big powers would be encouraged to harm us? Very, very unlikely. Today few powers outside the West are beholden to the power of money. They are based on other pillars of economy. Such economies are chaos averse, and trust golden rule.
As our power wanes, reforms are a must. Who is capable of reform?
Federal Government — definitely not. Choices are not many,
Luckily theRussians saw, that money talks, and high ideals get crushed unless someone can afford to defend them. For me, the craziest part of this Ukr areaine fiasco, is why now, when the U.S. & IT’S NATO Gnomes are weakened and Russia is at the top of it’s game, Whyy, Why, ….WHY, NOW…….?!?!?
Proving that humans are mentally and spiritually unevolved failures. Eliminating money would be a great start. Humans need to evolve mentally and spiritually, otherwise it will just be the same until we destroy the planet and all or most of the life here.
I doubt anyone at the U.N. believed Biden. Even U.S. “allies” know better, but they are largely trapped now so they go along. The Global South countries didn’t believe a word of it. Why would they? They’ve been victimized for EU countries and their offspring for centuries.
Just finished reading a book titled THE SCRAMBLE FOR AFRICA it was researched over ten years by the author to say it is a book of historical fact it is a cracking read , and tells you why Africans don`t buy the Western Anti Russian Propaganda .
Perhaps because of the history of slavery and the destruction of African culture. After all it was the Spanish,Portuguese, English,French and Americans who raped the continent for slave labor.
Well; not just them; the east african slave trade was a conduit to primarily Muslim countries, and started earlier, was of overall greater volume, and lasted longer than the west african (euro-based) trade.
And, the east african trade had the very unpleasant added feature of “the supply of eunuchs”, highly prized in Muslim countries, for servants and harem guards, as there would be no chance of them breeding – so many thousands of young boys were castrated, in a process that had very high mortality rates – in order to “up” their sale value by making eunuchs.
We actually have modern observers, from the late 19th century, who saw Muslim slave raids from Zanzibar in action – being savvy businessmen, the afro-arabs combined the slave trade with the ivory trade; raiding villages, taking EVERYONE prisoner, making the “less desirable” carry the elephant tusks and supplies often hundreds of miles, so that it would be no real loss if they died along the way.
This does not excuse the Europeans; but fair is fair; EVERYONE took advantage of the willingness of some african leaders, and african tribes, to sell off other africans.
I accept your research and what you say. I stand corrected.
Thanks; it wasn’t my point to correct you; just wanted to get out there that, while the west has a lot on its conscience regarding the slave trade, so does just about everyone else, including the africans themselves. It was tragic, but ancient history now.
BUT; it’s what has happened since WW2, with the endless meddling in and exploitation of former colonies in Africa that the west should be answerable for; that’s still being done today. Saddest thing; Gabon (who just had a coup) was a “prized” French “partner”, providing oil exports to France, and riches for the Bongo family (that name cracks me up, sorry) – yet after 80 years of french “partnership”, Gabon has ONE SINGLE REFINERY for its own oil, and must import 50% of its refined petroleum products for domestic use from outside the country.
That is the picture book definition of an exploited economy, and France should be deeply ashamed of itself, and should be condemned by everyone.
It’s an outstanding book; I read it about 15 years ago; two others are King Leopold’s Ghost, specifically about the exploitation of the Congo; and the Wealth and Poverty of Nations. And, of course, the classic “Washing of the Spears”, about the settlement of South Africa and the Zulu wars.
To put it simply, the US administration’s approach to anything related to Russia is characterised by a pattern of continuous deceit. They persistently lied and even when they seemed to have exhausted their ability to deceive, they found a way to lie again. It’s a never-ending cycle, and meanwhile, everything else continues as usual.
Friggin well said Mr. Styxx
This, from Woody Harrelson, says it well.

It is safer to say that any independent movement that poses trouble for Americas corporate economic interests is not safe from the CIA and our military. The history is pretty F—–g clear.The Native Americans who died for land said and knew White Man speak forked tongue. The same applies to all of the arms agreements that the US has broken or backed out of. I just don’t understand why our citizens continue to support with silence and passivity a system that is on its way to wiping out humanity and civilization.
Why? Smart Americans are petrified of the US government attacking American citizens.
What you need is public demos like back in the day against the Vietnam war . Americans seem to have lost their will to live .
American draftees aren’t coming home in boxes or body bags now, so Americans don’t much care.
Pretty soon it may be ashes to ashes and dust to dust.
That’s because there are no U.S. draftees. Bring back the draft, that would wake these self-centered a-holes up.
We shouldn’t need involuntary servitude to open people’s eyes.
I agree, we shouldn’t, but we DO. That’s reality. Americans don’t care about U.S. wars of empire unless they’re at risk of themselves, family, or close friends being killed or wounded. If you know how to get people to evolve enough mentally and spiritually so they care enough about others and the planet to fight against all these damn wars, I’m all ears (or in this case, eyes).
If things keep going the way they are it will not be only our will to survive. These MFs are perfectly capable of ending life as we know it. I figure it is probably 50% 50% which way it goes not allowing for Climate Change which really does exist.
A combination of ignorance, indoctrination or worse, indifference. Most Americans just don’t care until it affects them, and for the most part, the only price they are paying is higher cost of living expenses. There seems to be a general passivity that exists among the population today, besides, there’s no end to the ‘bread and circuses’ to distract the American people from the actions of government. One of the scarier aspects of this indifference is that the generations today are being indoctrinated at such a young age by the mis educational government school system that going forward there will be even less objection from the people as they will come to love their servitude. Aldous Huxley may have been more on target with his ‘Brave New World’ then even he could imagine.
Well said OG.The PTB believe that distraction works and so far it has. We must hope against hope that this ends and something brings the public to a reality check. Please keep writing.
Americans tend to react to disasters, a modus operandi which might prove to be less than optimal in the case of nuclear war.
As in bend over and kiss our cumulative ass goodby
On a bad day I can see some or all of the doomsday and natural disasters coming true whether it be by Climate,Nukes or the enforcing of a police state with brown shirts marching on our broken roads and buildings.
++++ I too have been struck by the degradation in Americans’ awareness of their surroundings in many ways.
I’ve come to the view that much of it is a reaction to the extent to which our environment has devolved into a two-tiered trickle-down society where an entirely different set of rules applies to the two tiers.
In addition, the rot at the core of the national government has such a stench it is no longer possible to avoid it, and it applies to both the national and international scene.
Really, I can no longer hold ordinary people (voters) accountable for isolating themselves from the rot at the core of America. It’s a way of keeping a measure of sanity.
Reagan was right in a bizarre way: trickle down works, but not as a way of spreading wealth. Rather it’s a way of controlling dissent based on the most basic kind of blackmail: do what we say or lose what you have. US foreign policy flows from the same threat. Hence, sanctions, coups, color revolutions, interventions, outright invasions, even IMF loans. Uncle Sam is a Mafia Don.
Interesting perspective.
IMHO you write accurately and well.
Thanks for the compliment.
When it comes to this situation, I write from my heart and my fury at the way our country has been ruined by these monsters.
Excellent points.
“” Uncle Sam is a Mafia Don.””
son of bitch OMG
They do act like organized crime.
I think it’s because parents of the past 40-50 years have refused to discipline their kids. Instead, they’ve fetishized them and led them to think that the whole world revolves around them. Can’t think of a worse way to raise kids regarding its effect on the rest of the world. Now we have a society of people who don’t care about or even consider anything but themselves.
Actually, what the Natives said is that the colonizers had to write all their agreements down because they couldn’t be trusted.
After Biden’s speech, Hugo Chavez complained about the smell of Sulfur from his grave. (Sarcasm)
OMG
The man is a doddering old fool. Every leader outsede the “collective west” can see it. And within the collective west many also believe it but are too intimidated by the inevitable cancelations that follows expressing the reality.
All NATO members know the Americans are HIPOCRITES but don`t have the guts to point it out to the likes of Biden , perhaps it`s because they are all LACKEYS of the Americans which would explain their silence .
They are politicians, candidates the CIA must have picked for elections. It can’t be just coincident that the major European nations ended up with the kind of incompetent governments they have and the US with a demented president and his gang. They do specialize in regime change and destabilizing countries. Biden goes around bullying and threatening, and extorting other nations and campaigning, that is all the governing he does.
“Moscow suspended its participation in New START, the last nuclear arms control treaty between the US and Russia.”
The key to this treaty is on-site inspections by each side. But the Americans refused to allow the Russians to travel to inspect due to “sanctions.” After a few months, the Russians suspended participation.
Dave is just a Putin lover and hates the US. Right, “Dumb (DJ) and Dumber (RT)”?
Maybe he is, may he is not however, his writing technique/style on Ukraine favors and fuels the pro Russian bloggers here including you.
You always attack the folks that support Ukraine here and never ever those pro Russians bloggers that write insane pro Russia/Anti West comments (yes, that’s a repeat).
Plus, you support the invasion and annexation of Ukraine (standard repeat).
I’d rather be dumb than a supporter of Putin’s personal war against a historically oppressed country he doesn’t believe it exist (yes, another repeat).
Maybe he is, may he is not however, his writing technique/style on Ukraine favors and fuels the pro Russian bloggers here including you.
I’ve been saying the same thing since pre-invasion. Exactly the same thing. Over and over again. I didn’t need Dave to tell me anything.
You always attack the folks that support Ukraine here and never ever those pro Russians bloggers that write insane pro Russia/Anti West comments (yes, that’s a repeat).
I attack pro Putin and anti-US people on a daily basis. You. Need I post your comments again?
Plus, you support the invasion and annexation of Ukraine (standard repeat).
Like I said, I’ve been saying the same thing since pre-invasion. I don’t support any war. Commenting on wars after they begin, and not agreeing with your jingoistic nonsense that will only cause many more unnecessary deaths, doesn’t equate to support.
I’d rather be dumb than a supporter of Putin’s personal war against a historically oppressed country he doesn’t believe it exist (yes, another repeat).
Now you’re just taking the fun out it for me.
Don, you have a real problem, you don’t back up your allegations.
You do Ukrainians no favor by supporting the Biden neocon gang of war mongers in US interests at the expense of the Ukrainian nation. You are an accomplice of Sen. Graham and Romney, they let the cat out of the bag when they declared the conflict in Ukraine is a great investment for the USA. They are war criminals without a moral compass.
Secular humanists, and socialists which most of us are, have a moral compass. About a half a million young men KIA is a terrible price to pay for the Ukrainian people, add the civilian victims, the refugees and the destruction, the loss of life and all the suffering of young and old should mean something to you.
Not a single one of the politicians has had any sense of introspection, no regrets. But they go to church and pray, I wonder what the good Catholic Biden really confesses before he goes to communion.
I for one despise Biden and side with the Ukrainian people, they could have had peace and prosperity with neutrality and look what you brought them.
Something better then the US brings its friends would be nice.
Biden and his masters fear that existential threat: Peace…
Touche!
All we are saying is give peace a chance.
They can not see the worth or profit from peace. That is why they are always involved in one war or another.
Is the independence of any nation secure, when the United States is always ready to contest the will of their people?
There is little or no hope for the world until the American empire falls and that will be a very dangerous time. The US rulers will not slip away quietly into the night. They will fight and kill to the last dollar.
February 14, 2018: USA aggression: USA Attorney General Ramsey Clark: “American aggression had already created incalculable levels of “misery for the world”; “the poor of the planet [are] made poorer, dominated and exploited by the foreign policies of the U.S. and its rich allies; that “the U.S. invasion of Iaq was a war of aggression, an offense called ‘the supreme international crime’ in the Nurmberg Judgment.”
the lack of arms control
WTF does that even mean?
controlling the number of bullets that are fired in a given direction ?
how many bombs can we make before we start dropping them on some unsuspecting children?
WTF who makes tanks that use petroleum for fuel?
oh it is either Chevrolet or Ford or Dodge.
or perhaps it is now Toyota or Nissan or Hyundai. right?
somebody is building the things that kill people.
oh well as long as other people are the victims then hooray! right?
edit = my grandchild goes to school every single day.
what does the Iranian child do?
Biden’s brain was seen being dumped out of a skyscraper window some time ago. Evidently, no one has yet noticed that the two lithium coin cells powering the replacement AI implants were dead.
In addition, there are reports that the motorized shuffle and babble speech units borrowed from an old iPhone were obtained from the former Sesame Street actor who played Big Bird.
Very amusing
Agreed. The US, and to a (slightly) lesser extent it’s slavish, servile lapdogs in NATO, as well as Japan, Australia, and New Zealand, have no credibility and no moral standing with the rest of the world.
NO ONE need listen to us; I am disappointed that Biden’s speech at the UN wasn’t treated with the utter contempt that it deserved; I would love it if the next time he “talked” (mumbled…babbled…rambled) the members from South America, Africa, and Asia led by BRICS simply got up and walked out.
Perhaps someone would throw a shoe at him.
If they do, I hope they nail him right between hi beady little eyes.
LOL
Syria? Vietnam? Guantanamo? Guam? Bikini atoll? Diego Garcia? All of south and central America? More? Much much more…
“President Biden called the conflict “an illegal war of conquest, brought without provocation by Russia”
And what was the provocation to invade Iraq and Libya and Syria?
Regardless of the U.S. transgressions you mentioned, it’s a complete and total lie to say that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was unprovoked. The U.S. has been provoking Russia since the Soviet Union was disbanded, first by not also disbanding NATO.
