> About the plans to capture Kiev, as i understand, russians did that move, with the hope that Ukraine will be afraid and surrender, because also that was the logic thing to do.

sort of. and putin had a lot of agents inside ukraine who reported that ukraine is "ready" to be captured. of course they lied and just made money from russians.

> So, there was no statement from the russian side that they will end the war in two weeks

of course there was no official statement. Lavrov stil saying that there is no any invasion and that is Ukraine who started the war )

> On the other had thete was a statement by Zelensky that next year ukrainians will go for fishing in Krimea

it was said by Budanov, not Zelensky but ok. During the war you can't rely on sources who involved in war, only independent. and there are lot of them.

that is one that I suggest you to read - https://substack.com/@xxtomcooperxx

Ah yes, there were several russian or russian friendly blogers, youtubers etc who were saying that the conflict will end quickly, but i meant statements from officials.

Lavrov is saying that Ukraine stsrted it, as far as i know, because they started bombing Donetsk again. Do you remember Biden saying that russians will invade at 16 of February? Why this specific date? The answer is that this is when ukrainians started bombing Doneysk again... So Lavrov is kind of right. Kind of... Of course it was a russian invasion in general.

Thanks for the suggestion. Not one of my sources also...

you know who Girkin is, for example, and who captured Slavyansk in 14? i.e. russia has participated in the occupation of donbass since 14, why it strange if ukraine shelled russian military facilities on its territory? of course, civilian facilities were also affected. russian propaganda constantly talks about the bombing of donbass, but does not say what russian military did there, in ukraine, since 14. try to find video how russian capturing Slavyansk in april 14. I know for sure that it is there.

and russia said it was local rebels ) but somehow they looked like professional marines in full equipment

funny story about this video is that one of the soldiers used strange russian word which no one had knew in ukraine. even though many people talks russian. this word - поребрик, border. later we learn that this word is common in russia, in leningrad region

Yes as i said there is no doubt that there were russians involved there. As expected i should say. Like there is no doubt cia was operating also.

But which exactly is the point of this?

read half of the article and can't read any more ) feels like tales for conspiracy lovers.

for example the article says that in ukraine some secret bases have been built along the border to collect secrets data about russia. how exactly? secret special agents can look through binoculars in the direction of russia? I remember that for example just using satellite images the number of soldiers at the wagner base in belarus was calculated.

there is a phrase in the article that CIA and MI6 had full control over ukraine. again this is tales. we know for sure that there were conflicts between Zaluzhny and american generals at the beginning of the war. there were conflicts in 2023 when a counteroffensive was planned, Ukrainians did not agree with american plans on how exactly to counterattack. so there is no full control. it is just such a beautiful scary picture for morons - evil US special forces and ukrainian puppets.

This is from NYT. So... not from russian propaganda etc.

And i don't think thete is a doubt anymore that Ukraine has been used as a proxy against Russia. Is there such a doubt? (the video and the article with Stoltenberg should be enough normally)
