No, the standard is this: a claim substantiated by evidence is true. Otherwise it stays a claim.

Then there's also the past record of those who issue a claim. In the case of western regimes, the record's rather dubious though. From the Iraq war WMD lie to Pompeo proudly announcing that lying is part of the CIA's modus operandi, they don't shy away from acknowledging it.
Russian propaganda is also well known. Due to behaviour of america you excuse similar behaviour of the russian empire.

Not really. Ukraine's deputy Prosecutor General made that statement in a public interview. See the difference?
Thats my point. An ukranian born with russian roots (stalin population politics), with pro-russian ties and tendencies.

A “russian/zionist puppet”.
Ah using your style of “argumentation” sure is handy and gives a simple view on the world…
The protesters were mobilized as a result of a CIA-led machinations and manipulations. More details in the links I shared before.
sure like mere “puppets” controlled by their american overlord? Please, there is a reason ukranians are fighting so strongly now. After all the history with russia they have.

But not to stage "color revolutions".
This is just your pet peeve. Annihilating statehood and flattening cities like russia does is quite a bit worse. And for how “stable” a dictatorship is. This is temporary.
No evidence for Russia poisoning or blackmailing any Ukrainian leader.
There was evidence. You just handpick which claims you believe. Far from objective approach
You left out the 2014 CIA-engineered coup disguised as a "popular upheaval" which had taken place in the meantime, and brought to power a US-subservient anti-Russian regime.
The more we go back the more we run into russian influence and meddling. On all their federations/warsaw pact minions.


...all of which triggered by the Kiev regime and its neo-Nazi militias violating the Minsk agreements and breaching the ceasefire.
As did the seperatists. Russia also refused to cooperate regarding the downing of a civilian airplane. Russia prefers to lie and destabilize the eu with internet campaigns/spying/paying nationalist parties
Regime and administration aren't the same thing, and international law concurs.
We do not see much difference in the russian MO. No suprise seeing how putin is a former kgb agent.
Chechnya was not invasion of foreign land.
Like now with ukraine…..

Chechnia is just an example on russia’s heavy hand to keep its “federations” in line.

There is a reason so many eastblock countries came running to nato.
Why sweden and finland come running to nato now.
And?



No, your American friends have been reserving this fate for non-European nation-states essentially. The eastern European ones they're happy to enfeoff in a more "classical" way.

Your whole stick is basically absolving russia based on american misconduct.

Handpicking what “claims” to use or not

Dedication and an unwavering commitment to defend their ideology from outside interference. The 3 Stooges - UK, Russia, and the US - could not understand this simple concept. Like the British and the Russians, the Americans overestimated their abilities and underestimated the Taliban's resistance. Hubris, a deadly disease that humbles the 3 Stooges
Hmm it is also a matter of overestimating how much a society can be changed by a third party. How easy it is to build a “stable democratic” nation.

We thought afghans would massively flock to western/democratic customs. Would easily adopt these and fight to defend them. We were wrong.

Actually, Russia is currently occupying the smallest amount of land since the war begin in February 24

Between Feb 24 - March 30 Russia occupied estimated 32-35% of Ukraine, included Kyiv Oblast, Chernihiv Oblast, Kherson Oblast, Kharkiv Oblast, Luhansk Oblast, Donetsk Oblast, Zaporizhzhia Oblast and Sumy Oblast

Between April 1 to May 16 Russia occupied estimated 25% of Ukraine when Russia vacated Kyiv Oblast, Chernihiv Oblast

Between May 16 til now Russia Occupied estimated 21% of Ukraine when Russia vacated Sumy Oblast, Partially from Kharkiv Oblast and Kherson Oblast.
 
.
At least 1,000 Iranian journalists have been arrested, detained, murdered, disappeared or executed by the Iranian regime since 1979.

Maybe this is why you are ranked last , and not cause someone is biased towards you ?

Iran freedom of the press , 178 out of 180 countries :


177Turkmenistan25.01
178Iran23.22
179Eritrea19.62
180North Korea13.9

wonder if we limit it to last 10 years how many shot at and killed by Israel and how many by Iran.
later we talk about arrested part
 
.
US & others did sign the Budapest Memorandum guaranteeing Ukraine's security & pledging political, financial & military support in return for surrendering 100's of Soviet era nuclear weapons. Russia also signed the agreement with full knowledge the West would back Ukraine should they invade however seems Putin gambled he could blyatkrieg across Ukraine in days before any defense could be mounted he was wrong now he's crying that Ukraine is getting the promised support this is reason we help Ukraine make of it what you think pal

Show us a concrete example of proven, indisputable disinformation by Russia leading to the sort of catastrophes the US regime has been provoking with its lies.

Thats my point. An ukranian born with russian roots (stalin population politics), with pro-russian ties and tendencies.
A “russian/zionist puppet”.
Ah using your style of “argumentation” sure is handy and gives a simple view on the world…

And yet, your supposedly complex view of the world fails to account for hard facts like these. If Ukraine's Deputy Prosecutor General lied about his team not having found any evidence for poisoning, surely some of them would have raised their voices in protest, wouldn't they? Or was the entire department staffed by native Russian-speakers?

By the way, alleged demographic policies of Stalin are one of the reasons why the same Ukrainians you appear to be favorably biased towards, are now forming a majority in Galicia. So you may thank Stalin.

Also, what Russian-zionist nexus are you alluding to? Because with regards to Ukraine, Moscow and Tel Aviv are at loggerheads.

Last but not least I never claimed non-Russian speakers in Ukraine are predestined to be NATO and zionist puppets. It's not my style of argumentation.

sure like mere “puppets” controlled by their american overlord?

Why resort to rhetoric questions? You can read the papers instead, seeing how the answers you're looking for are contained therein.

Please, there is a reason ukranians are fighting so strongly now. After all the history with russia they have.

Sure, Ukrainians are fighting like supermen... we can see that from the staggering amount of videos which surfaced showing demoralized Ukrainian troops complaining about inadequate equipment and displaying obvious unwillingness to join the front.

Although I'll concede that this mostly applies to the regular Ukrainian military, neo-Nazis and other far right extremists mobilized within regiments of their own not conforming to this rule, high as they are on captagon and morphine, ideologically conditioned as they are to engage in completely futile, statically entrenched, irrational and nihilistic resistance, perfectly echoing the Wehrmacht's attempted defence of Berlin in 1945.

This of course does nothing other than to cause additional damage to Ukraine's civilian infrastructure - which in fact they don't really care about, considering that it's affecting Russian-speaking areas for now.

This is just your pet peeve. Annihilating statehood and flattening cities like russia does is quite a bit worse.

Except that the purpose of those "color revolutions" was to set the stage for wholesale destabilization of Russia down the road, utilizing the anti-Russian stooges brought to power by NATO throughout Moscow's vicinity. In that sense, Russian intervention was provoked by a concrete and palpable threat of existential nature, and Russian intervention effectively averted destruction of potentially much greater scale.

Whereas recent military interventions and nefarious meddling by NATO (Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, Sudan, Somalia, Afghanistan etc) were not triggered by any realistic menace to the security and territorial integrity of member states. None of the nations attacked, invaded, plundered, balkanized by western regimes and their allies represented a real formidable threat to the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia or New Zealand.

The actual motivation behind these military adventures was to prolong the brutally enforced dominance of the empire. Key differences you opt to ignore.

But no earthly power, no matter how mighty, is eternal. And clearly, the zio-American empire has entered its phase of decline, much to the relief of mankind.

And for how “stable” a dictatorship is. This is temporary.

Russia's political order isn't dictatorial, it's democratic - just not liberal democratic. In many ways their model of governance is superior to the western one, and rather than trying to disparage it through clichéd catch-phrases, western regimes would benefit from taking the Russian system as a source of inspiration.

There was evidence.

Such as?

The more we go back the more we run into russian influence and meddling. On all their federations/warsaw pact minions.

This must be sort of an ironic remark. For last time I checked it was the US regime which, in breach of its promise to Gorbachev, kept expanding NATO across central and eastern Europe, with Russia essentially staying passive to these provocations. But that's over. NATO from now on will be reaping what it sowed.

As did the seperatists.

A ceasefire is seldom violated for the first time by two opposing sides at the very same moment. One party initiates the breach, and in the case at hand it was the Kiev regime.

Russia also refused to cooperate regarding the downing of a civilian airplane. Russia prefers to lie and destabilize the eu with internet campaigns/spying/paying nationalist parties

I wasn't aware that spying onto itself qualifies as destabilization. As for the alleged financing of political parties by Moscow, I addressed this contention in a previous reply: not only have EU regimes only themselves to blame if they aren't satisfied with their own national legislation in this area, but what is more, if these allegations are true then Moscow would only be paying back the EU regimes for their systematic interference in Russia's domestic affairs via support for Russian opposition figures and parties.

We do not see much difference in the russian MO. No suprise seeing how putin is a former kgb agent.

You may want to a have a closer look then.

Like now with ukraine…..

Chechnia is just an example on russia’s heavy hand to keep its “federations” in line.

There is a reason so many eastblock countries came running to nato.
Why sweden and finland come running to nato now.

If you truly believe Russia's conduct of military operations in Ukraine is heavy handed compared to standard NATO procedure, where everything is basically flattened first and questions asked later, you'll be pretty disconnected from ground reality.

Your whole stick is basically absolving russia based on american misconduct.

Handpicking what “claims” to use or not

I mention and describe the characteristics of US misconduct to highlight how far removed Russian policy is from that sort of misconduct, and that there are many decisive differences setting apart the behaviour of these two governments on the international stage.

The total absence of any battlefield reporting or discussions about Ukrainian losses in this war is very weird. Irrespective of who we are backing we deserve to hear the truth, even if it's not what we want to hear. We are adults and are able to deal with it

DOD issued a estimate back in April 19, when it cited source that between 5000 to 11000 Ukrainian soldier had lost their live. Comparable amount of Russian has also been killed. On the same report.

The current estimate would take both side to mid 20,000 level killed in combat.
 
. . .
There are reports that Ukraine is demanding anti-ship missiles in order to export its wheat……so its blackmail…..

Wtf is going on?
That's BS

The West already pledge to donate Anti-Ship Missile BEFORE the talks. No point demanding something people are going to give you anyway.

On the other hand, Russia did demanded Ukraine to demine the harbor before they can allow grain to come thru, fat chance this would happen.
