France getting kicked out from Africa.. now they want revenge..

[ALIEN_]

Russia should not enter into any negotiation if they are excluded from the talks and if they are included, not without a guarantor from a neutral party, preferably China, on its side. None of the EU countries are qualified to be guarantors after the Minsk Agreements betrayal.

[dietmarbitterlich]

No more talking with the Western terrorists.

[zemekiel]

It's funny how desperate France is to be relevant on the international scene.

[tryhrdgamer]

Russia should release the phone call from the French to shame them .

[tavuzzipust]

Macaroni is a total clown, he should stay at home playing with his grandmother.

[towtow]

Russia has a recording of that conversation, I'm sure. Macron is a cowardly clown.

[nurlindafsihotang]

Europe needs to realized the one "of their own" is Russia. Not USA and Canada!

[PerceivedREALITY]

Zelensky didn't try to prevent the conflict through diplomacy because he lacks honor and integrity.

In 2014 there was a coup. Soon after, there was a massacre in Odessa (dozens of people were burned alive). Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed. A civil war broke out due to the rise in ethnic tensions. For 8 years the Ukrainian military was indiscriminately shelling civilians living in Donbas.

If Zelensky honored the Minsk agreement and pledged neutrality, none of this would have happened. The 8 year civil war would have ended and Donbas would have remained part of Ukraine. War is the ultimate failure of diplomacy.

Zelensky, Poroshenko, Merkel and Hollande admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements.

Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time.

Russia's national security was compromised once nato began to expand eastwards. Russia clearly stated that Ukraine joining nato was a red line (November 2021) and unfortunately this concern was never taken seriously. The Russians openly stated: if nothing changes, we will be forced to act in order to defend our national security. Enhancing the national security of one country at the expense of another is unacceptable. The Russians have legitimate security concerns.

20th September, 2021. Ukraine launched military drills with US and NATO

NATO is not a defensive alliance. Nato illegally bombed Yugoslavia (a direct violation of the U.N. Charter).
We should never forget what they did to Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq etc.

Who blew up the pipeline causing an environmental disaster?

Zelensky banned all opposition and arrested a leading priest.

Zelensky tried to invoke article 5 under false pretenses. Remember the incident in Poland.

Ethnic Russians living in Ukraine were treated as subhuman. Their language and culture was being oppressed.
Poroshenko said, “Our children will go to schools and kindergartens—theirs will hide in the basements”.

Russians will never forget the 2014 Odessa massacre. The whole world needs to know about it.

Why was Denis Kireev eliminated? He was a member of Ukraine's negotiating team during the peace negotiations. He wanted to help his country.

Ukraine has a hit list. They target artists, journalists and ordinary citizens. Hundreds of children are on this list. 13 year old Faina Savenkova was placed on this list.
Pink Floyd's Roger Waters is on this list. Jimmy Dore (American stand-up comedian, podcaster) and Aaron Maté (Canadian writer and journalist) are on this list.

There is evidence that Ukrainian troops have been indiscriminately shelling civilians in Donbas (they used petal mines and targeted areas where there was no military presence).

The azov troops trapped in the azovstal steelworks in Mariupol used human shields. They refused to allow civilians to leave despite of humanitarian corridors being present.
Russia held a proposed cease fire in order for the civilians to leave, but azov would not allow the civilians to leave.

Ukraine has committed many acts of terrorism (car bombs and other forms of assassination). Darya Dugina (journalist) RIP.

The first terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed the truck driver and the individuals in the adjacent car (innocent civilian victims).
The second terrorist attack on the Kerch bridge killed two parents and severely injured their young daughter.

I have done a lot of research and it took me a long time to write this comment. I have stated a lot of facts and I have given my honest opinion.
I have provided a brief summary of events that took place. In order to explain this whole situation in great detail, a book would need to be written.
Hopefully someone will write an UNBIASED book, stating facts and allowing the readers to form their own judgments. Everything I said can be fact checked and verified.

[chrrev]

Shoigu to the french:" please send your troops, we will send them back in bags"

[jackhummer]

I guess Macron realized that Putin is not playing around and serious. 😅

[thulomanchay]

With Ukraine they hold peace talks without Russia.
With Russia they hold peace talks without Ukraine.
With the US and Europe, a lot of things are going on behind everyone's back.

[Stop-this]

Running down that line of Leaders all I see is failed Warmongers 👎

[balandr]

Putin is laughing at these clown shows. Right people for the circus.

[Shamansdurx]

French fries and Chicken kiev on the menu of Russian army!

[carbonfibremadness]

Macron will be made as macaroni spaghetti if they decide to go head to head with russian😂😂😂

[tonyaitsi]

Ukraine is not a battle ground for countries afraid to take on Russia directly or for provocation..

[mmaximk]

Slight correction: the 2022 Istanbul format peace talks weren't "a failure", they were sabotaged by the UK and US.

[KLBTRU]

I am missing Europe of Jacques Chirac and Gerhard Schröder times. Dis new clowns make us look bad, stupid and not able to change our lives.

[andretorben]

Macron seems to have two personalities. They keep switching between themselves.
