Putin cynically claimed that Russia "has never had, does not have, and will never have any desire to attack anyone." Russians said the same thing in the winter of 2022 - and then they invaded Ukraine.

This would be read as: ruZZia always had, have and will have the desire to attack everyone.

ruSSian tactics described well in Orwell’s novel “1984”. They double-speak and started punishing thought crime (i.e., when ruSSian’s google the wrong things).

Any journalist and editor who mindlessly reports this without also explaining the below are complicit in Kremlin’s propaganda efforts

Hitler said the same in 1938.

The Russian definition of attack is flexible

@darthputinkgb.bsky.social We know it’s true if the Kremlin denies it. So when will this take place?

What did they say in August of 1939 about Poland? Same thing?

Maybe it is not a desire, but just an uncontrolled impulse? 🤷‍♀️

If Hitler were given the opportunity to talk he would say the same thing.

In fact, this non-aggressive policy was also said to be typical for the Soviet Union. It is not surprising that Putin is playing the same linguistic game as Stalin and Molotov. Of course they all were lying.

Funny. I recall some guy in Europe saying the same thing back in the late 1930s.

The Russian identity (aggressive and imperialist) finds its source and full meaning in a Kremlin statement made in December 2021, shortly before the February 2022 invasion of Ukraine. In summary and in essence: as far as Berlin, it's ours, it's our zone of influence. Then they invaded...

I guess their statement is true. They dont have the desire to attack. The mafia also desires not to burn down the venues which dont comply and pay their pizzi. Russia wants surrender without using their military. They want to say nice country you have, would be a pity if something happens to it.

ruSSian fascists keep saying that they haven't started any war but won all wars when involved. Both claims are BS
