Ukraine and Russia have been intertwined for over a thousand years. Kiev, the heart of modern Ukraine, was once the capital of Kievan Rus, the first great Slavic state, a precursor to Russia itself.
The name ‘Ukraine’ literally means ‘borderland,’ the borderland of Russia. For centuries, Ukraine was an integral part of the Russian Empire, not an oppressed nation, and even during the Soviet era, it was central to the USSR. Soviet leaders Nikita Khrushchev and Leonid Brezhnev themselves were Ukrainian.
When the Soviet Union collapsed, Ukraine gained its independence, but that is when Washington’s influence began to truly take hold—not to aid Ukraine, but to weaponize it against Russia.

Once in power, Zelenskyy’s priorities were not to fight corruption—his focus was on ensuring that Western banks, like BlackRock, could take control of Ukraine’s economy.
Meanwhile, he reportedly funneled millions into offshore accounts, purchasing luxury properties, including a mansion in Miami and an apartment in London.

Remember last year, when zelensky arrested the head of Ukr internal security and a couple of other high ranking Military Intelligence officials (allegedly for conspiring to overthrow/ coup him) and replaced his entire personal security detail / i thought i read in alt media he now has a handpicked cohort of former seals and former NATO merc's as personal bodyguards.

China Joining Russia Against NATO
I don’t think Starmer understands. This is not marching into battle like in colonial days. Things have changed. The EU may be counting on fighting until the last Ukrainian, Romanian, and Polish, and then they can walk in and take Russia, but this is not shaping up as Europe thinks. Even North Korea has gained from the Ukrainian War. They are now learning an utterly new warfare game and are now up-to-date with knowledge about fighting a modern war with drones rather than jets flying overhead....

I hate to point out, but China will commit its military forces to Russia’s war effort against NATO, for they are NOT stupid. Once the West took Russia, they would move against China. It is absurd to think that if NATO got involved in Ukraine, China would not join with Russia. Ukraine has told Newsweek that China is “not stupid.” Let’s get real: Ukraine puts out nothing but lies. They, of course, say to the press that for fear that NATO would not come in to destroy Russia. It is precisely the opposite. Trump has to keep the United States out of Europe’s death wish. There is absolutely no doubt that China and Russia will join together against NATO.
