    Yulia Zhdanova, the new head of the Russian delegation at the Vienna talks on military security and arms control, revealed to Sputnik

    Referring to the assessment of the foreign expert community,

    So the only source, actually cited source, is a head of a negotiation team, of a country at war referring to its enemy? Very credible /s

      Oh so we’re admitting the US and its allies are directly at war with Russia now, are we? Tut tut you shouldn’t talk down on plucky little Ukraine fending for itself like that.

      Anyways, let’s all calm down and focus on making the entirety of the Baltics uninhabitable with antipersonnel mines 🥰

        Oh are we? We are writing that Ukraine is at war with Russia. We think you might call it a special military operation, maybe? And we do think there would be no antipersonnel mines laid in Baltic’s if not for Russian imperialism. Maybe if there was less Russian military in European countries outside of Russia there would be less excuse for militarization of neighboring countries or at least it would make it easier for local activists to push back against it? Just a wild concept we have.

    “Bully News: Nerd’s Lunch Money Probably Being Spent On Dorky Shit.”

    So, yeah, a story from a Russian government mouthpiece quoting a Russian government spokesperson spouting Russian government talking points that - deary me, oh my days, can you believe it, bless my soul, what are the odds, well I’ll be - paints a negative image of the country the Russian government illegally and unjustifiably invaded. Or, maybe the oligarchy are just pissed off that the warlords aren’t buying their weapons from them any more?

      That’s just what you’re told by anti-russian western media. Of course the US empire would label anything that goes against them as ‘propaganda’

        Sputnik is clearly Russian propaganda. Wasn’t told that by US propaganda.
