The Real Story About Russia And Ukrainian War by ken6488(m): 2:01pm On Mar 03, 2022
We no war is never an option personally I pray the war stops but where did it all start

A simple Google search of "How President Yanukovych was overthrown" or "The Maidon 'Cookie' Revolution", would have thrown up a lot of facts for anyone to ponder upon and given Nigerians an INSIGHT into the mind so-called "Mad Man", President Putin.

Its a long story but l will give a summary and you can Google more info, so as to make up your own mind.

- Yanukovych was validly elected as President, in a democratic election. He was from the Dombas Region
- Because the US and NATO wanted to expand into Ukraine, so they can directly threaten Russia, they asked him to become Pro-NATO/AMERICA/
-The President refused and preferred to have good relations with its stronger neighbour, Russia.
- AMERICA (does anyone recall that name: Nuland?) used its Agents, CIA Ops and the enemies of Russia, like Poland, to sponsor Radical, Nazi-like criminal gangs, to VIOLENTLY TOPPLE Yanukovych's Govt.
- the violence was led by a US funded band of Militia Men called the ARZOV BATTALION.Now, if you think Nigerian Herdsmen are Evil, then you've not seen the Arzov Battallion in Action.
- The guys encircled a City Council Building where some supporters of the President were hoilding a Meeting, ON FIRE! Anyone who managed to escape the fire either have their head CHOPPED-OFF putsidethe burning multi-storey building or had their head blown-off with Sniper Fire.....in a "Western country"!
- The terrorist, Neo-Nazi Arzov Battallion (later banned on Facebook aand other SM since 2016, but reinstated since last week!), nearly killed President Yanukovych, he ran away for dear life.
- America/NATO and the E.U then imposed "their man" Porochenko, one of the Neo-Nazis, as President.
- Porochenko then ensured that Ukraine was properly radicalised and Pro-NATO. He also banned one of their TWO OFFICIAL LANGUAGES (RUSSIAN), which is the natural, ethnic language of the people from the Dombas region of Ukraine.
-- this angered the people of Dombas Region, they organised a REFERENDUM and decided they no longer want to be a part of Ukraine, understandably so.
- Since that REFERENDUM IN 2014, the Porochenko Govt in Kiev, unleashed military might on them in Dombas Region, using the same Neo-Nazi Azov Battalion (now absorbed into the Ukrainian Army). only the People of that Dombas region (Lughansk and Donetsk), can narrate the horror they have been going through, since that 2014.
- Being "Native, Ethnic Russian Speakers", Russia tried to mediate between them and the Govt in Kiev (Ukraine). France and Germany were also GUARANTORS of the Agreement they all signed, after the Negotiation/Mediation. That AGREEMENT was called Minsk I (and a second one, Minsk II), because it took place in Minsk, capital of Belarus.
- The Minsk Agreements stipulates that:
1) Ukraine Govt should not use MILITARY FORCE to conquer and forcefully re-unite the two breakaway areas of Lughansk and Donetsk, known together as "Dombas Region".
2) The Dombas region should be given some "Self Autonomy" but will still remain a member of Ukraine
3) The people should not be disenfranchised any longer and they should be allowed to speak their ethnic Russian Language.
4) The Agreement was signed by the Ukrainian Govt, the Representatives of the Two break-away Regions, Russia, Germany and France, as guarantors.

Between 2014 and Jan 2022, the Ukrainian Govt did not implement any of the resolution in the Agreement but rather kept on shelling the Regions, using heavy Artillery, while its Neo-Nazi Arzov Battalion unleashed war and mayhem on them.
-Being ethnic Russians, they ran to Russia for help, about a Million of them even took Russian citizenship, hoping Russia will come to their aid.
- For 8yrs, Russia did all he could, to make the Ukrainian central Govt change its mindset but it only got worse.
- The West, seeing that having a military Base and "ally" in Ukraine, would make Russia very vulnerable, encouraged Ukraine to join the EU first, and then join NATO afterwards. it also gave Ukraine the needed Weapons, Training and Money, on the condition that it MUST SUPPRESS THE DOMBAS REGION COMPLETELY, BY ALL MEANS.
- For 8yrs, help did not come but "hell" was let lose in the Dombas Region, courtesy of these Neo-Nazis called Azov Battalion, now ingratiated into the Ukranian military.
- Long story short, Zelensky was elected, after 4yrs of Porochenko and he made a vow to America that he would solve the "Dombas Problem" by March 2022.
- Putin got "Intelligence Report" of what is about to happen to his "Ethnic Russian family" (some have become Russian Citizens by now) in Dombas. He also got to know that Zelensky has applied to take Ukraine into the EU and NATO.
- Putin objected such move, just as America will object, if Russia tries to bring Mexico, Cuba or even Canada into a Military Alliance with it. (Anyone can read how the "Cuban Missile Crisis played out, during the Cold War). Putin wrote series of Letters to America, EU, United Nations, and anyone that matters, stating WHY it will not allow Ukraine to join NATO and WHY Russia will no longer permit Military Operations in the Dombas Region but that Zelensky should rather IMPLEMENT the Agreement signed in Minsk I and Minsk II.
- The West called his Letters, "A Non-Starter" and dismissed it with a wave of hand.
- America also said Russia cannot decide for Ukraine, whether to join NATO or not, even though America did not allow Cuba to have such military alliance with Russia!
- To prevent Ukraine Govt from joining NATO (which Russia called a "Red Line", as it is an Existential Threat to Russia) and to prevent Zelenky from unleashing his "final attack" on the People of Dombas, right after they proclaimed their independence, Russia did TWO THINGS:

1) Russia decided to give recognition to the Two Republics (Lugansk and Donesk) IMMEDIATELY.
That way, they can invite Russia for "Protection" from the impending Military onslaught of Zelensky's Ukrainian Govt.

2) Russia decided to PRE-EMPT the combination of America/NATO and EU from taking Ukraine into its Military Alliance, after which time, it will be too late, because then, he will have to face NATO, a Nuclear Power Alliance! The same way that, as of today, America and its NATO Allies are wary of confronting a Nuclear Power Russia, if they put "boots on the ground" in Ukraine.
Russia invaded Ukraine and vowed to deal with the Neo-Nazi Azov Battalion that has been killing Ethnic Russians in Lugansk and Donetsk since 2014 (De-Nazification Objective) while degrading all the Weapons that NATO/America has been storing in Ukraine since 2014, to be used against Russia once Ukraine attains NATO Membership and to prevent Ukraine's ability to develop a Nuclear Weapon (De-Militarisation objective)

Now, that we know WHY Russia did what it had to do, l will end this Write Up by reminding us that Russia still sees Ukraine and Ukrainians as "Brothers", hence its refusal to use "overwhelming force", especially from the Air, to reduce Ukraine to Rubble. Zelensky, who is in hiding, should stop the propaganda that they are "resisting Russia" militarily.
Also, Russia does not intend that any Ukrainian civilian should die, but by handing out weapons to Civilians, Zelensky has put them in Harm's way, to shoot and be shot by trained soldiers.. But War is not an exact Science, anyway. Russia was always willing for a "Negotiated Surrender", to avoid further casualties.

BTW: All Western Media are still operating and reporting from INSIDE Russia, you can watch CNN Reporting from Bolgorov in Russia, Fox from Moscow, BBC from Moscow, etc. but the Americans and Europeans have SHUTDOWN all avenue for the Public to listen to Russian Television (RT News) on all social Media (taken off-air in Europe, UK, America, YouTube, Apps Store, Google Play Store and just about ant means of hearing the Russian Point of View!
WHY IS THAT?
The reason given by the British, American and E.U is that they dont want RT News to misinform their People, they want them to listen to News aired only by Western Main Stream Media.
Hmmm.... does it mean that Americans and Europeans are too dumb to make up their mind, by themselves, if they hear THE TWO SIDES OF A STORY or does this sound like BRAINWASHING THEIR PEOPLE?

BTW: FIFA, International Olympic Committee (IOC), UEFA, World Judo Federation, Formula 1, EPL and many other "International" Sports Organisation have always punished any Athlete who as much as put on a Sportswear that have the slightest hint of a "Political Message", claiming that "Politics and Sport Dont Mix" yet, we have all seen their HYPOCRISY as they have all towed and capitulated under American Pressure to BAN "Anything Russian" or anyone who does not agree with their own "Russia is Evil" Narrative.
Even the United Nations has become USELESS as America has now decided it has the right to prevent UN Diplomats from coming to the United Nations or Expel a sitting UN Diplomat, like it expelled 13 UN Diplomats of Russian origin! What a Shame.

P.S: I have written this events because it is what most of us have been prevented from hearing or reading, by the information clamp down of the Western World. Let ALL INFORMATION/NEWS be available for the people to hear and then let them decide what to believe.


This war has exposed all westerners lie’s
They all wanted to test Russia military power
