One thing that doesn't make sense to me from the history that Putin gave about Ukraine is the language. He said it is mainly Polish people that made up Ukraine. Ukrainians speak Ukrainian or Russian and Poland has their own language as does Bulgaria. How to explain the Ukrainian language? It couldn't have just appeared in the small time frame Putin is giving credit for the formation of the country. He fails to mention the part George Soros played in Ukraine during the Obama administration as well. That is just one country he helped destabilize. Why he was thrown out of his own country.

Peter, thanks! Do you have any idea how one-sided our reporting has been on Ukraine and its war with Russia? Saw an early documentary on Ukraine leading up to and focusing on the cia-initiated coup of 2014. Learned Ukraine's army had been infiltrated with neo-Naz!s since about 1995. Kept wondering what was up with that, until I realized Ukraine had been used by the Biden family and others as a money-laundering location, due to extensive lawlessness and exceptional corruption. Good to hear another view. Quite a few ongoing debates on X as well, after this interview.
