Diplomats say Putin’s brutalisation of Ukraine has brought back darkest memories of occupation under Stalin
Nato must be ready for Russia launching an “existential” war against the Baltic states “masked by a blizzard of disinformation”, ambassadors from the three countries have warned.
Writing exclusively for The Sunday Telegraph, the top diplomats to the UK from Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania said that Russia could “pivot quickly” from Ukraine to invade the Baltic.
And they said that Vladimir Putin’s brutalisation of Ukraine is evoking the three countries’ “darkest memories” of occupation under Stalin.
The Estonian ambassador Viljar Lubi, the Latvian ambassador Ivita Burmistre, and Lithuania’s charge d’affaire Lina Zigmantaite, wrote the joint article to mark Friday’s 20 year anniversary of their countries acceding to Nato.
Biden got 100 secret arms shipments to israel done while ignoring Zelensky. Bypassed Congress for israel, not Ukraine.
Blaming Trump for Biden abandoning Ukraine to support israels Genocide is top tier mental gymnastics.
Coming to Trumps defense and bashing Biden. CLASSIC LINKERBAAN

Cognitive dissonance and a genocidal apologist liberal, name a more iconic duo.
Go tell your god emperor Genocide Joe to put in effort for Ukraine instead of whining about Trump.
Trump is not an elected official right now but Joe Biden abandoning Ukraine must be Trumps fault. Liberal gymnastics are truly something.
Average lemmy user when any one brings up valid criticism of Biden or the Democrats:
Valid criticism is appreciated and I’ve changed my mind on the genocide going on. That said, when one submits only posts or comments pushing a single narrative to the exclusion of criticizing any other politician, it’s obvious they are a propagandist.
Look through this guy’s post and comment history.
I wouldn’t say average lemmy user, but I have noticed a huge influx of astroturfers looking to gentrify lemmy and make it into another reddit (see r/politics for a prime example of that crap). It started with the shrieking demands to defederate from “tankie” instances.
It’s Russian bots. It’s the disinformation campaign the OP story is referring to.
Arms shipments so secret that we are here talking about them?
Yep because they got leaked. Real sad that Biden is using the same dirty tactic Trump used to secretly sell weapons to Saudi. But of course Biden does it to support Genocide, not help Ukraine. And Biden recently passed the free israel money without Ukraine in the bill. Because Joe Biden does not seem to care about Ukraine at all aside from optics.
I think you may be under the impression that “secret” means something it does not.
Strange when Trump did this to secretly sell weapons to Saudi it was a massive scandal and we all really cared about it. But if Biden does it it’s fine because only Trump would do violate his presidential powers this hard.
By the way do show me the receipts of these sales if they aren’t secret.
You speak only for yourself, there is no we here lol.
I really would suggest at least checking what the word secret means.
You’re desperately trying to argue semantics because you don’t have any actual argument.

Do you think this self-portrait will magically win the argument for you?
Hmmm I wonder who is responsible for the aid money not going to Ukraine. Couldn’t have been republicans refusing to vote for it. Nope… That can’t be it
Oh look there’s still someone left that believes in the fairy tale of voting and the President not being able to bypass congress after being directly demonstrated of the opposite.
Trump broke laws to do that and the only reason nothing happened is because the stolen SCOTUS seats gave him immunity
All I see is “Thanks, trumptards”. Perhaps he edited his post or something, but I don’t get the impression he’s the one doing mental gymnastics on this.
And how exactly is orange man related to Putin invading other countries?
Probably being an enabler?
Biden is the one that dropped Ukraine this time around. Why only blame Trump?
I would venture to guess it’s because this time around might not have existed in the first place if Trump didn’t invest so much of his presidential attention to stroking Putin’s ego and having secret meetings with him in Helsinki.
But what do I know? I just wanted to tell you that you were doing more mental gymnastics than the other guy.
Wouldn’t have existed if Biden and the UK didn’t tell Zelensky to abort peace negotiations in 2022 because “they got Ukraine’s back” . Now we see they did not in fact “got Ukraine’s back”.
Biden is only on his knees for Netanyahu giving him as many Genocide bombs as possible.
You’re not wrong, but which came first, Biden & UK saying that stuff to Zelensky, or Trump getting cozy with Putin on Twitter, meeting with him privately in Helsinki, Russia’s election interference, and Trump’s insurrection attempt, and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine? Maybe I’m just not clear on the timeline. Would you mind putting those in chronological order for me?
Putin invaded Ukraine because NATO tried to invite Ukraine which went against the deal with Russia.
Blaming that on the orange man who just slushed some cash away to mar-a-lago is saying a lot about how much the average Biden voter understands about Geopolitics
Strange way to spell Republicans blocking votes

Removed, insulting other users in Russian is still insulting. Attacking the idea is fine, not the person.

“Anyone pointing out inconvenient facts is a Russian plant” is a stupid argument to make. I do see all the mindless upvotes you’re getting while seeing all the mindless downvotes others who are actually citing facts are getting and it makes me wonder if the regular astroturfers from reddit have added lemmy to their list of sites.
You’re saying this while knowing Trump withheld aid to Ukraine on the condition of helping him manufacture dirt in Biden?
