If NATO membership for Ukraine was a known bright red line for Russia, why did Biden promote it?

Did you watch the video?

Yes now tell us how that’s not Russian state tv propaganda…. I am all ears.

You tell us what he got wrong.

Wrong? The Donbass statements. The genocide. What else would you like

That Maidan protestors were being killed by Azov battalion

Keep watching them videos though.

The government backed by neo Nazi part.

Man… how does one go from anti Clinton Progressive to Horshoe Left Putin apologist in like five years?

Here is a link to a 2015 study from the University of Ottawa that evaluated available videos, eyewitnesses, ballistics data, and other information about the shooting of Euromaidan protestors in 2014.

Here is the conclusion:

There has been virtually zero coverage of this question in the western media.

The official western narratives about the Ukrainian revolution assume that the fatal shots came from forces connected with elected president, Viktor Yanukovych. If the shots came from someone else the narratives collapse.

Why the apparent disinterest in a question of such importance?

Reuters doesn’t seem all that convinced of the official narrative either.

What power does Right Sector hold today?

How many seats in Parliament do they have?

Yes, and there has never been any trial in Ukraine.

If the Euromaiden massacre really came from right-wing groups allied with the US, the whole narrative about saving democracy in Ukraine gets turned on its head. The real story would be that democratically elected government was successfully overthrown by groups who were responsible for the massacre.

Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun. Mao Zedong

If the shots came from forces related to far-right Ukrainian-nationalist groups, they successfully ended the democratically elected pro-Russian government in Ukraine. They are arguably responsible for the deaths in the conflicts in Ukraine since then as well.

That did not answer the question I asked.

Your question assumes that Ukraine is a functioning democracy. The number of seats in parliament are irrelevant if it is not. Instead the real power may be with paramilitary groups.

That is in Donbas.

So in the Ukrainian Government… how much power does Right Sector posses?

If they overthrew one elected government, they can overthrow another.

Seats in the parliament are not important.

That still did not answer my question.

We are talking about Neo NAZIs and Right Sector.

What power does Right Sector wield in Ukraine?

You don’t understand power.
