Putin Orders Russian Troops Into Separatist Regions For ‘Peacekeeping’
I strongly believe RS don’t want the war, what they do,they do for protect themself against NATO’s expansion in East European countries. That’s all about .And it’s likely the same as CHN don’t want confront to the trilateral agreement /AUKUS either. So.conclusion ,what’s the business of US & Allie countries interaction the others countries.? “peace not war ”
Hey.what I say is what I want to live peacefully.Thanks.
Ship more American sniper rifles and Turkish drones to Ukraine. Cossacks in body bags are a form of negotiation to an autocrat like Putin.
As soon as the levee breaks, a million Russians will hit the streets. Little Hands has his neck way out. Plus, the no more Russians selling Sea Shells in Florida, thing.
well, everything is simple here =)) Putin (on behalf of the Federation Council and the State Duma of the Russian Federation) announced the recognition of the Lugansk and Donetsk People’s Republics as sovereign states! After 20 minutes, he signed a union agreement with the Heads of the Republics. according to their own will and at their request (of the people of the republics), he announced the prevention of a humanitarian catastrophe and the introduction of peacekeepers of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. documented. questions? =))
So then Russia should let the nations of Karelia, Ingria, Bjarmaland, Mari-El, Mordovia, Komi, Udmurtia etc etc to secede from Russia. He also shouldn’t complain if Nato troops with Finland were to go and occupy all of the Moscow region, as those are the original lands of the Finnic Merya tribe.
Just like the the American peace keepers in Taiwan, how interesting
No, not the same. US has less than 40 personnel in Taiwan at the invitation of the Taiwanese government due to China’s increasing aggression against Taiwan to help train Taiwanese military. Russia has over 150,000 troops (some reports say as high as 190,000 troops) surrounding Ukraine. And the Ukraine government has NOT invited any of those troops onto its sovereign land.
Literally “peace keeping”…. Dudes keeping a PIECE of Ukraine. 😏
Send Patriots to the Kremlin. I hear there are Americans and Europeans there being detained against their will.
Good job mr putin great man thanks keep the peace ☮️ no more war I told you clowns 🤡 three months ago Russia 🇷🇺 wasn’t going to war with Ukrainian
time to pass some javelins….
Big brain moment. Its not invading ukraine if it is not even a ukraine
Wait so is the invasion tomorrow again?!
We better not get involved.
Dude Russia already killed people
a lot of anti american sentiment in some of these comments. more of traitor trump’s azz kizzers.
Biden +harris =49%idioto Assolini Mussolini
I wouldn’t be surprised if china will make a move into Taiwan within several years after watched how NATO especially the US handle this issue
I am American and support Russia in securing her lands. This is none of America’s business. Yankee go home where you can do all the buggary with boys you want, Eastern Europeans who still value family and God need none of your Western degradation and death.
Stupid moved
Putin? Thinks he’s the only nation builder?
Germany, Japan and NATO.
We should put him out of our misery.
This move by Putin is a full and complete annexation of the region exactly the same as Crimea and not only that, it is also a test to see if NATO has the courage and determination to stop him with force. And the answer is no they do not, they are going to cower behind their self imposed rules and regulations and their wait and see attitude as he takes Ukraine one piece at time, because there is nothing short of full and immediate admittance along with troop deployments and the formation of a Siegfried line that is going to stop him. The idea that the Ukrainian people can fight him off with enough training and support is ridiculous and absurd.
piecekeepers
Pls include Odessa and Mariopoul Mr.Putin. The Kiev fascits shed blood here too in 2014. And pls wipe out those Nazi units working alongside the Ukrainian army in the east. Kenya says long life to Russians.
The lie of Putin is clear – this is not for peace. It is a display of hostile aggression. His legacy will be tarnished. A failed statesman, because a successful statesman does not put another, non-agressive nation’s innocent people in grave fear or cause them loss of lives. This is a very self-centered action, a major miscalculation that can more easily be seen from the outside looking in. Many, many Russian soldiers, young men, will lose their lives in an unjust cause. Largely politically motivated from within. We will come to the aid of Ukraine and the Russian army will be driven OUT!
US in another news invaded Libya, Afghanistan, Syria Liberia etc
https://youtu.be/5Srqyd8B9gE
the parellels are disturbing
You can Sugar Coat it all you want. It’s an invasion
of Ukraine 🇺🇦. Putin has just cut It’s peoples throat from the rest of the world.
Deep sanctions will cripple the average citizen. 🤔 I think the citizens are used to eating beans from a can
Anyways.
I would like all of you to recall the prognostication of Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman–who testified against Trump and is another VICTIM of Trump’s wrath–having his honorable service record destroyed by “TREASONOUS TRUMP”. Alexander Vindman outlined Putin’s intentions many weeks ago adding: “We’re About To Have The Largest War in Europe Since World War Two”.
Vindman is a brilliant asset to the U.S Military (UNLIKE the TREASONOUS GENERAL MIKE FLYNN)!
Come on man. Dementia Joe told us he would stand up to Putin.
Good job Russia,. Ow the western PROPAGANDA doesn’t know what lies to say, Russia has gain more land without shooting a bullet, no deaths.
Look ♫ Look ♫ Look at peace ♫ (￣ ▽ ￣) ✨👍💕
May the spot-billed ducks heal you (￣ ▽ ￣) ✨👍🦆
Please spread peace to everyone (￣ ▽ ￣) ✨👍❤️❤️❤️
Putin has stolen corporations,nuked his competition,gassed Syrians and had babies blown from the skies but when he screws the rich out of secure investment his end is near. Dictators die in so many ways
Good news for Donbas.
And Russia turns off the oil to Europe
‘A peacekeeping role’ So let me get this straight, Russian troops going in as Peacekeepers to parts of the Ukraine held by Russian-backed terrorist groups that are pro-Russian. Wouldn’t it be way cooler if a neutral country sent in Peacekeepers? Neutral countries don’t side with Ukraine or Russian forces.
Putin will just claim those two regions as part of Russia as he did Crimea in 2014. In fact why not just return Poland back to Russia–you all know Putin really wants a port in the North Sea
Russia saw weakness under Pres Obama and knows it again under Biden. Doesn’t help that Biden’s family has been raking in money from Ukraine and Russia.
Russia have all the rights not like Israel
President putin is my hero only 1 man on this planet could stand up against the Americans imperlsim
fake news.
It seems the jokes are over, it’s better not to aggravate the situation, reptiles have underground shelters, and ordinary people don’t really want to be radioactive ash
Sounds like something America would do to justify an invasion. Putin took a page from America’s book…..
“Call on the Lord in the day of trouble,
and He will deliver you”
Psalm 50 :15
So what happened I’m confused? Probably not the only one .
Why do I feel like puking when I hear US news outlets like this. Indeed I feel like vomiting.
Blah blah blah
Nato and US bluffing and Putin calls the bluff. Next ?
This is entirely like Hitler and Czechoslovakia at the start of WWII.
Russia has started WWIII.
As US did for other countries. Difference is doing it politely. May Putin knows that It’s only good for globalist forces.
Putin is going te be bankrupt
Congratulations to Russia for this success 🤔
Minks agreements disappear!
Accept Ukraine into NATO, boom! Problem solved !
It would be a boom indeed, whole nato would go boom.
Mr Biden don’t understand what means in Russia peacekeeping other than is their word for invasion’s.
🇺🇦❤🇹🇷💙🇺🇦💛🇹🇷
Biden gives the State of The Union Address in a week and the State of Our Union in 13 mos of his “leadership” is in the crapper! Putin took Crimea during the Obama/Biden administration and now takes multiple regions in Ukraine during Biden’s tenure. Lets not forget the financial pain on Main Street with soaring rent,car prices, food,utilities, etc.. Biden is like the Carter administration on steroids with its levels of failures being off the charts!
Long live mother Russia!
fear of war as biden’s rating drops to record levels. meanwhile, we’ve managed to buy $3.1 billion more worth of oil from russia in 2021. weird. btw, cnn is owned by at&t. btw, bidens ratings are at record lows. much weird. very convenient.
How is this going to stop Ukraine from joining NATO?
Now they have more reason to seek membership.
We are Russian peace keeper. We make peace first in Ukraine then Poland, then Finland, then England, and OMG USA also need peace then lets go there for peace, OMG look at us. Russia is soooooo huge now. God bless peaceeeeeee🤌🏼🙌🏻🙌🏻🤌🏼👊🏼 I love peace. Hey Brazil do you need peace?? NO, Shut up🤬 you need peace.
Any further attempts by the USA to conduct warfare in Europe and manipulate and ignore European powers on their own territory will not be tolerated.
The USA sabotaged the Minsk agreements agreed between the major European powers regarding constitutional arrangements for a local trouble spot, thereby treating them with contempt and behaving as a foreign adversary. This is well known here and it will likely lead to the extraction of the USA from the European collective security architecture.
Theyll definitely be safer under Putin than the corrupt kiev coup…
THE WEST: Oppressive patriarchy sexism racism bla bla bla
RUSSIA : I’ll show you what oppression actually looks like you spoiled brats 🤫
we are screwed!!!

sooo…. the exact play that the US does when we “recognize the independence of some (soon to be puppet nation) and send in “peacekeepers”…. putin took a page of of the US “nation building” playbook… lol this is hilarious
The world needs to understand that putin has already been in power for more then 20 years, was a KGB agent. He does not care for russian civilians and is out of touch with daily life, poisoning and killing is all good in his world. Absolutely insane. Robbing the whole country out of its wealth and only cares for his family,friends and personal beliefs. Russia is and will be a maffia state. Navalny for president!!

Oh only if we haven’t done so much of these “Peacekeepings” in the past.
Maybe we can get peacekeepers sent to Canada to protect us from the Trudeau dictatorship
Alert – Garland is not updating us and this is a national emergency!
DOJ failed the American people! it’s up to the brave states to punish Trump.
Approximately 700 low level arrests made, but still no major arrest for seditious conspiracy leaders. The disgraced former president Trump, Trumps chief of staff and a gang of congressional members in the House and Senate who continue to conspired to undermine American democracy. Isn’t there someone able take care of Trump? …..maybe the states can take him on!
we know prosecutors need to create their narrative for a conviction and now we have it. We want action and accountability.
where is the accountability for the following –
1. meadows doesnt appear in front of commission that is contempt of congress….why doj wont arrest him is crazy and unethical. he didn’t appear, what more evidence is needed? !!……DOJ Failed
2. “hang mike pence” that is a criminal threat……DOJ Failed
3. offering pardons that is witness tampering……DOJ Failed
4. inciting violence Jan 6 thats a crime……DOJ Failed
5. ToiletGate – trump destroying government documents and taking secret documents home after losing his job! now the question should be how many boxes did he take versus the 15 that were recovered. trump took more boxes. see presidential records act for details of the law he violated.
6. interfering with elections thats a crime……DOJ Failed
7. contempt of congress thats a crime……DOJ Failed
8. fake electors thats a crime their foot soldiers committed ……DOJ Failed
9. kelly ward and spouse and others, impersonating as government electors even after Barr and Pence said one could not do that……DOJ Failed
10. Jeffrey Clark – co-conspirator for trying to weaponized the department of justice to overturn the election
11. Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act applies to what Trump did and does.
By summer time, Georgia is entering phase 2 of their prosecution efforts for election interference…… how slow. The earliest arrests will take place is towards the end of the year? !!
12. also, what about enforcing the 14th amendment of the Constitution of the United States? get rid of Cawthorn under section 3 of the 14th Amendment
13. muller prosecution……DOJ Failed
14. New York is making progress and will speak under oath with Trump…. hopefully by April. Go New York!
now the committee says the big reveal has been done and all politicians should disvove Trump. is that all the committee will give us? what about arresting those for contempt of Congress…. they can do that now!
Will a jury convict? Yes, there is so much evidence that a jury will convict! If a prosecutor is worried about a jury conviction, then just pile on a ton of viable charges and do a plea deal…..but they must plead guilty for the deal!
Why is Garland not acting on this or at least he should be giving us a status report?
Also, we have to watch out for some Governors in 2024 probably wanting to submit fake lists of electoral voters to change to results of the election if it doesn’t go their way.

Today secret news
LOL, so its over guys. This whole drama has ended, rusia will take the separatist states. Nothing to be done here, Ukraine most likely to find a solution on its own with Russia from now on. US is pretty much out of the picture, you wonder why the UN council was called upon? Pretty simple, once something reaches the UN, stays in the UN.
Peace and safety and then sudden destruction.
Biden, crush Russia, how, effective ASAP, double all drilling and exploration for oil, double our oil and natural gas production ASAP, as soon as we can, start work on existing pipelines, and double them, messaging alone will cause a drop in oil cost in one day.
Do your job Biden, crawl out from the basement, understand how you can impact Russia, and lower fuel cost, which will reduce cost of transportation, which reduces cost of products to end consumers “inflation” reduce it with lower energy cost…need to leave the Green Beans on the bench and lead – lead at home and on the world stage, do your job, get over to Europe, face to face with Putin, this is not Kamala’s job.
$40.00 a barrel for Oil – devastation for the Russian Economy – flood the market with oil..
The United States of America, does not have the moral quality to claim against Russia.
Let us remember that the United States of America, balkanized and annexed the Mexican province of Texas.
The United States of America, does not have the moral authority to claim against Russia if the Uncle Sam did the same with the Mexican province of Texas.
As long as it just an incursion,sounds like a green lite
He knows he’s got to take the Ukraine now before President Trump returns.
Yea, Putin definitely didn’t place bounties on US troops under Trump…or land Nuclear bombers in south america. Pro Russian forces definitely weren’t fighting in eastern Ukraine….nor did Russia initiate hundreds of cyber security attacks on the US during Trump’s presidency.
@Blueciffer1 I would have just preferred a real response like, “Your wrong and here is why..” Back on the day we called that dialogue. Have a great day. I’m serious.
@Blueciffer1 Turns out my assessment may not be that far off. This is from the Guardian News, which is left of center, “Putin may sense western weakness. Nato was humiliated last year in Afghanistan and Joe Biden, who campaigned to end wars, not engage in new ones..”
@Tracy J. Had to add a little sarcasm in there for my own little laughs. The point is though, BS from the Russians happened under Biden, as well as any other president after 1949.
Sanctions on North Korea 🇰🇵 were imposed since the 1950s and tightened over decades long. North Korea 🇰🇵 remains isolated but lives on trading with China 🇨🇳 and the likes. Russia 🇷🇺 with its greater influence at the UN 🇺🇳 and global stage with many countries happily willing to trade and work with it, can Russia 🇷🇺 withstand 🇰🇵 like sanctions and will the West go as far as it did to North Korea 🇰🇵? Will this be the second Cold War and the beginning of the end of dollar as trading currency? How many countries will line up to acquire Russian advanced and nuclear weapons if Russia 🇷🇺 is pushed to the corner and is willing to sell them to withstand sanctions? How far will the West go to isolate Russia 🇷🇺? Is the end of the UN 🇺🇳 nearing? Is China 🇨🇳 readying to make a move on Taiwan 🇹🇼?
I guess bidens stern warning didn’t work.
Putinkeeping operation is appropriate expression.
Fake News Media can scream invasion til their face is blue, there is no invasion.
These provinces voted to leave and join Russia.
Research the war crime in 2014 when Obiden-Soros overthrew the legitimate government. That is the source of the conflict.ooi
Jello
I wish Biden had a set of ball like Putin.
Reminds me of Hunger Games “peacekeepers” 😳
How allowed usa to force iraq????
Didn’t anyones momma teach you to mind your business? War always cost us, the citizens, not our governments. Pray for peace!
America is call Puppet lamo 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Russia patience limit is now breached after repeated failures of diplomatic means. Now is the military option. Putin will NOT be push around by US & NATO. The Gangsters States created THIS!!! Now DEAL with it!!!
Navalny and the good Russian people is the only thing that can save Russia now.
A new Hitler is here. 1939 all over again
The lies of this descusting country!
I feel like Putin statements get lost in translation because he keeps saying he won’t invade Ukraine but his actions are otherwise.🤔
I finde very funny that the average American dosent even know where mexico is or where Latina America is located, they only speak one language and whants to opinate about conflict across the globe😂😂😂😂🤦♂️.
So sad. I wish byden would have left all military equipment their and not Afghanistan =(
Putin is a war criminal. Shame on you putin. Stop putin
Spreading peace, order and security is from the American playbook….
45, setting up the groundwork for this peacekeeping mission including lauding the lauunch. Worthy of grave followup.
Putin’s peacekeeping force has heavy flamethrowers and Kadyrovtsy death squads. Does he means the peace of a graveyard?
Putin orders Syrian and any Muslim fighters to be vaccinated with pig stem cells because Ukraine military are coating their bullets with pig grease, Putin claims pig stem cells will keep the Syrians from snorting like the pigs
