This man has given warning about this action since 2008, and NATO-USA still acts innocent know nothing mode.

[jadleyomoi]

from this i understand Putin doesn't aim at expanding Russia but secure Russia against NATO which wants to surround its borders.

[andresdeks]

This man was been ignored, so he said this far and no further.

[matiasameinge]

The fact that NATO is trying to act as if innocent in this conflict is unimaginable. Russia didn't start this war, NATO did. Why would they think for a second that they can come close to Russia and push them around? Russia has made it significantly clear that they worry about NATO expansion to Eastern Europe and yet NATO failed to acknowledge that. Fair enough you would expect resistence from Russia.

[Gods-bad-boy]

You know something? No matter how you view him or his country. I think he's the only one being honest.

[davicpetrovski]

When russia wanted to build a base in Cuba it was a ww3 threat. But when USA building bases all over the world it’s nothing xD

[joedarkmatter]

The more i listen to Mr Putin speaks, the more it shows he speaks about real thing & reality

[ndondiafrika]

My opinion has changed....i kind of feel Putin, he has a point

[ddjossi]

It’s simple … I guess any countries will ask the same question and have same concern!!!
He is absolutely right !!!!

[eefneleman]

Imagine having had to practically beg to NATO for the past 15 years to get any kind of believable agreement on security.
Yes, patience runs out, as Lavrov said.

[inagordan]

he is brilliant and strategically motivated. he is correct that in the future Ukraine canj jeopardize territory.

[capresti]

His position is understandable i wish this was resolved diplomatically rather than war.

[FA-udfy]

HE HAS A POINT, , , ,
No one in MSM speaks to USSR being promised in 80's,
Ukraine would remain neutral.

[laurebourgeois]

I understand his position. Frankly, I'd do the same if I were in his position.

[shivamr]

USA went to Cuba to defend and now USA puts it's military weapons in Ukraine and at the gate of Russian borders. What the hell did Ukraine expect😵

[sadns]

No Western news agency shows what putting says, so biased

[alex]

The comedian keeps on getting praised while Putin keeps on being slandered for defending his country from Nato.

[kiya]

He's right. Despite his shortcomings; on this issue, he's right!

[treasurethetime]

He's not falling for the "delay and pray" strategy. He's a clever one. That's a classic tactic we tried. Satisfy a long term concern with a short term move. In a few months or years we would be right back to square one.

[anandvzm]

Now I have more reasons to support Russia but painful for the people that are suffering
