I think he is referring to the Maidan protests in 2014.

That saw the Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych (pro-Russian) taken out of power and replaced by Petro Poroshenko (pro-EU/USA)

Many feel the Maidan protests were orchestrated with CIA/State Department help.

Whatever the case half of Ukraine did not support the protests and felt cheated by the throwing out of their guy in favor of Poroshenko.

The Russians poisoned the opposition candidate back in 2004. He survived and won the election. Perspective here.

I don't think that is fair.

Pointing out that the CIA/State department are involved in internal Ukrainian politics does not mean the USA is "bad".

Its just facing reality. Our government is interfering in the internal politics of another nation.

Of course ATL is also correct. The Russians are interfering as well. Including by poisoning politicians they don't like in Ukraine.

Certainly no one on here thinks Putin is a victim.

Well, I sure am glad Biden has N Korea under control.

---

Very surprised Japan has been so passive with all these N Korean provocations .

As the Japanese know they are a prime target .

---

Japan is quietly gearing up. They seem to have more faith in themselves, than Biden.

Some of y'all really need to learn/accept that not everything in the world has to do with Biden or Trump being in office, or how you can use it to try and score political points.

---

How convenient of you to say now that we have an angry, confused geriatric and a clueless, lazy bimbo in charge of the executive branch.

But I thought you liked Trump?

It really doesn't. They don't have the manpower or matriel to win. The best outcome they can hope for is one of Afghanistan where it goes on forever until Russia gets bored. You're talking 43m vs 145m people. One of those being led by a person who simply doesn't care about loss of life. Their fight is admirable but, ultimately, Russia will win unless they simply choose not to.

You are correct. So far the Ukrainians have fought much of the Russian pushes to a stalemate and has forced Russia to pretty much abandon what they originally wanted to do (Quick thunder runs into Kyiv and a quick regime change), and now both sides are digging in. Add to the fact that the skies are still contested, Russia has lost 5 very high ranking officers and continues to take losses everyday, and so on and so on. Yes, there is still massive firepower being aimed at Ukraine, but from what has been analyzed on the ground, it is pretty much being fought to a brutal stalemate.

You may be right. It may be everything east of river. If Ukraine can survive, it will end up being closer in size to Belarus, Moldova or the Baltic States. That could be Putins plan, to reduce the size to non-threat levels. Can ukraine keep a port?

Russia says the main goal of its military operation in Ukraine is "the liberation of Donbas"

No mention of "demilitarization and denazification," which implied regime change. This aligns with Russia's increased military focus on eastern Ukraine.
