Antony Blinken give press conference as Russia-Ukraine tensions escalate – watch live

US secretary of state Antony Blinken is expected to give remarks to the media at the Department of State amid escalating tensions between Russia and Ukraine

[terrific]

The u.s. was willing to engage in a nuclear war when missiles were deployed to Cuba. But when the US Rings Russia with the same lethal weaponry Russia is wrong to object.

Blinken has rejected requests to arm Ukrainian border guards with whips calling the weapons "cruel and inhumane".
Shipments of anti-tank missles have been increased however.

The only difference between Blinken and Pompeo is their weight.

Двойные стандарты, лживые слова, обвинения без доказательств, отправка войск в Европу, размещение ядерных ракет на территории стран не имеющих ядерного оружия (точнее наверное не стран, а колоний США таких как Германия, ведь ни одна страна не может быть суверенной имея военный контингент другого государства у себя в стране). С нетерпение жду, когда уже начнется что-то и когда наконец США сможет понять, что была не права и из за них погибли миллионы людей в новой войне. И вот вам общедоступная статистика, которая показывает, какие демократичные американцы на самом деле: от рук американцев погибли больше ста миллионов индейцев, десятки миллионов афроамериканцев, четыре миллиона вьетнамцев, около миллиона корейцев, больше миллиона иракцев, сотни тысяч афганцев. Ах даже не буду говорить какие "демократичные" стали Ливия и другие страны, куда США принесли свою демократию... подумаешь они сейчас утопают в крови гражданской войны, подумаешь их экономики разрушены и творится беззаконие... зато у них "демократия" теперь =)

The only solution is to immediately accept Ukraine as a member of NATO

[brazilempireforever]

What i read that week: Russia wants to invade Ukraine
What i think right now: USA wants to invade Russia

[sparkyfromel]

nothing unexpected, the interesting is not spoken about,
reduction of the US forward deployment, push back on Nato and multinational exercises close to Russia

Have a look at world at war footage of Hiroshima detonation aftermath and not only the people turned to a dust shadow but those miles away with no skin or eyes and one breath left and then imagine Russia has warheads 800 times more powerful .

There is no Tension Mr Blinken, yr spineless POTUS and Poor Harris woman have no clue what to do in Ukraine 🤣🤣🤣

Russia should install some nuclear weapons in Cuba. I would be interested in the reaction of the US Gouvernement.
