00:00:00.000 It's really three things that Zelensky did that resulted in the invasion by Russia.
00:00:08.060 Number one, nukes.
00:00:10.440 The Ukrainian president, Vladimir Zelensky, says that Kiev could reconsider the country's non-nuclear status.
00:00:17.460 He made the comments during a speech at the Munich Security Conference.
00:00:21.680 I have instructed the foreign ministry to convene a summit of the Budapest Memorandum's signatory countries.
00:00:28.300 If it fails to take place or refuses to provide security guarantees to Ukraine, Kiev will regard it and the clauses signed in 1994 as null and void.
00:00:38.620 And the second thing is NATO membership, which of course was off the table.
00:00:42.400 Russia had explicitly explained in the past that they wanted a neutrality deal for Ukraine, but they violated that as well.
00:00:51.360 Zelensky, Ukraine wants clear time frame for NATO membership.
00:00:55.960 In fact, after the invasion, Zelensky has even fast tracked an EU membership to be part of EU, be part of NATO, be part of getting nukes.
00:01:04.060 Everything basically in violation of what Russia wanted them to do.
00:01:07.400 Number three, which is an interesting aspect, but it has to do with the shelling that we saw in Donetsk and Luhansk a few days, about a week or so, before the actual invasion of Russia happened into Ukraine.
00:01:20.660 Now, of course, from the Western media perspective, we heard that it was Luhansk and Donetsk and these now self-declared republics, and Putin has recognized these republics.
00:01:32.300 It was them that was attacking Ukraine, but in most likelihood, considering how antagonistic Ukraine has been under the leadership of Zelensky and Western-backed NATO forces,
00:01:44.100 most likely it was them that actually went on an aggressive offensive.
00:01:50.140 In fact, there's been war in this area since 2014, since the coup occurred.
00:01:56.040 But to summarize this real quick here, basically, we have seen the most irresponsible action possible from Zelensky, from the Ukrainian leadership, and also from Western-backed NATO forces.
00:02:06.320 We've seen Western and Eastern European nations now sending arms.
00:02:10.460 We'll look at some footage here in just a moment.
00:02:12.280 We've also seen them sending not only ammunition, but fighter jets.
00:02:16.360 They are recruiting mercenaries and people to join a kind of a foreign legion in Ukraine, essentially.
00:02:23.300 Zelensky has even been handing out AK-47s to the civilian population.
00:02:27.560 They are barring 18- to 60-year-olds men from leaving Ukraine so that they can force them to stay and fight Russia at great peril, of course.
00:02:39.720 They're also giving instructions on how to throw Molotov cocktail on Russian tanks.
00:02:44.820 Even water balloons filled with paint are some of the recommendations we've seen from blue checkmarks on Twitter in order to get Ukrainian civilians to put their lives in harm's way in front of Russian tank columns.
00:02:57.300 This is absolutely insane.
00:02:59.020 So basically, the short version of this is we've seen a tremendous irresponsible behavior from the point of view of the West and the NATO forces,
00:03:09.780 which has disregard for average Ukrainian people's lives, right? 0.67
00:03:15.340 And they're going to put them in harm's way. 0.99
00:03:16.640 They want them to go die.
00:03:18.260 They want this to be a bad optic war for Russia so that that will justify the rest of the West and NATO to basically invade Russia and we'll have another world war on our hands. 0.96
00:03:28.180 Absolutely insane.
00:03:39.780 We'll see you next time.
