Just imagine......


Just imagine if the democratically-elected government of Canada had been toppled in a Russian-financed coup, in which far-right extremists and neo-Nazis played a prominent role.
That the new unelected 'government' in Ottawa cancelled the law giving the French language official status, appointed a billionaire oligarch to run Quebec and signed an association agreement with a Russian-led trade bloc.

Just imagine…
If Russia had spent $5 billion on regime change in Canada and then a leading Canadian energy firm had appointed to its board of directors the son of a top Russian government politician.

While here you can watch a brief interview with me in a news report on Russian TV on the Hunter Biden affair

the only worse act w.ukrainians could have done against s.e. ukrainians than to have staged a putsch against an elected government would have been to have started a civil war.
which actually they have done that by attacking s.e. ukraine.
s.e. ukrainians were morally and legally obligated not to accept an imposed government; so this military act is also illegal!!!

Thank you Neil for the brilliant article. I've been living in New Zealand since 1991. New Zealand has a reputation of not very politically involved country. Not in a case of Russia though. I was astonished with the level of demonisation of Russian politics and Russian leaders in western and New Zealand media. But not all New Zealanders believe this intellectually-deficient pro-american imperialist propagana. Some New Zealand leading intellectuals and business leaders like Sir Bob Jones

Thank youn Neil for the brilliant article. I've been living in New Zealand since 1991. New Zealand is not very politically involved country. Not in the case of Russia though! I was astonised with the level of demonisation of Russian politics and Russian leaders in in the western and New Zealand media. Though not all New Zealanders are so stupid to believe that intellectually deficient rubbish, which have bneen poured on them from pro-amrerican propagandist cannons of thuth destroyers. Sir Bob Jones, the Kiwi intellectual and business leader has raised his voice anainst this Rusophobic medi histeria. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sir-bob-jones/news/article.cfm?c_id=1503264&objectid=11245828

GREAT!
Thanks a lot..

Looks like half of the world (where mind is still clear) understand this idea, but nobody speak about it.
Unfortunately - Russia not so strong in international wars of information, where USA has very big experience and media-power. So, in short time (time of military action) - USA got support [even silent] of many countries.
and later - later is doesn't matter. business is done.

P.S. I'm not sure for Crimea secede. I support it subjectively, because it historical Russian land. But actually - independence of region is hard question for many countries.. and nobody will support loosing of his own region.
the question is - which force government can use in such case..

First anonymous: many thanks. Appreciated.
Konstantin: thanks very much.
second anonymous- cheers, many thanks.
Michael- thanks, that's much appreciated.
bozhidar- I agree, very well put. But in the dominant western narrative, no mention of the illegal coup which started this crisis.
Nevzet, thanks- yes.
Alexey, many thanks to you. Propaganda war vs Russia has been appalling, worse than even in the old Cold War.
Gods DoG-Many thanks - much appreciated. Depressing to hear propaganda war also happening in NZ- good that some- including yr good self are countering it and trying to get the truth out.
Alexey- many thanks. western war propaganda machine still very powerful, but thankfully less so than a few years back because of new media.
anonymous three and four-many thanks!
Olga- many thanks and best wishes to you too.
