It's simple. What they say in the Western media — that is democracy. All that does not correspond to those statements — paid Kremlin propaganda It amazes me how Western people have no own opinion and critical view of the world.
You aren't right, I often visit the western countries, (except the Empire of evil of USA) people have own opinion on the events in the world. About events in Syria for example, many and young and people of middle age - believe the US helps ISIS . People of a retirement age are also more senior in the majority don't believe in it. About events in Ukraine, most of people in the West, don't know what actually occurs. Just sometimes listening to the western promotion in media they thinking that it is Russia make problem there. (of course, they didn't hear that the US sponsored many years of the Ukrainian nationalists, about events on the Maidan, etc.) ps: all these are my own polls and my conclusions. I think of Syria they know more than about Ukraine because their coalition participates in the conflict (and a lot of information is found not only through media, but also Facebook etc.) ps2: how you have put the Russian flag in the right top corner?
Interestingly, in free America it is possible to buy toilet paper with the picture - Obama flies the American flag?
Belgium, And yes no doubt someone from russia has a hard time forming an own opinion on matters. Is that still legal there or are you obliged to follow whatever the kremlin dictates? The world has almsot unilateral condemned russia, everyone agrees what russia did was an illegal invasion and annexation of crimea. Talking about whatever the US did wrong isnt going to change that.
No its benefitial for western economies. That russia is stupid enough to rely just on its natural resources isnt their problem.
More BS, and anyway they were refused or chased away. Crimea couldnt even hold such a refenda, its all 1 big illegal russian controlled referendum that isnt worth the paper its written on. Sure no doubt thats the narative pushed by the kremlin, "to help those poor russian and ukranians under a fascist regime" Reality of course is russia was already involved a long time before that, pushing for a pro russian puppet in power, messing around with the consitution in 2010 trying desperately to maintain some influence over its neighbours.
At the pro-American Western world in the majority condemns Russia... where there live only 15% of the population of the planet. Nevertheless, for us in Russia it is indifferent what the western shout. Nothing will also change about the Crimea. Forget it. in Russia is more freedom than in the US now! Recently there were elections of the government, many different parties participated in elections - both communists and fascists and democrats, etc. in dictatorial the USA were there it is possible? Or there only two parties, are more right two families - Clinton and Bush? For the word - the communist, in the US - send people to prison? you sure in US freedom?
If Putin needs cash then all he needs to do is kidnap some Americans and obama will pay him $Billions in cold hard cash. Or Putin can tell obama that Russia will sign a treaty with the USA in which for cash Russia will temporarily halt (but not really) its nuclear programs so obama can claim he signed another agreement to bring "peace in our time" and pad his legacy. obama will do anything to destroy the USA. Just look at Iran.
In Kiev, the rebels made a coup by force. The rebels overthrew the legitimate president of Ukraine. The rebels seized power in Kyiv and throughout Ukraine (except Crimea) Crimea residents did not want to live under the authority of the rebels. If the rebels "have the right" to overthrow the legitimate president, then the residents of Crimea have the right to overthrow these rebels. >>>> it is If we argue from a democratic point of view. Is not that right, Dear Mr. Democrat k995? .... Have the residents of Crimea the right to overthrow these rebels?" - "Sure no doubt " - Clarify, please. Is these your answer? .
