Why It's Crucial To Expose US Provocations in Ukraine
by Donald Smith | February 20, 2025
If you believe that Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine was unprovoked, you will likely compare Putin to Hitler and will likely oppose President Trump's peace negotiations with Russia. After all, if Putin's invasion was unprovoked, a settlement would reward naked aggression and would be akin to Neville Chamberlain's 1938 appeasement with Hitler in Munich.

This is why it's so crucial that people who know the truth about U.S. provocations in Ukraine and about America's extreme hypocrisy to be fearlessly outspoken in proclaiming: the U.S. intentionally provoked the war, to weaken Russia, to wean Europe from Russian energy, and to make Europe more dependent on the U.S.
Unless the truth about U.S. provocations is exposed, there will be continued opposition to a peace deal for Ukraine, in both the U.S. and the EU. There is a chance that hawks in D.C. will force Trump to back down from negotiating a peace deal and that the U.S. will send U.S. troops, as Vice President Vance has threatened. And there is a chance that EU countries will try to extend the war without help from the U.S.
So far, EU nations have been willing to sacrifice their economies and social democratic safety nets for the sake of conflict with Russia. Likewise, EU governments have been cowardly about challenging U.S. support for Israel's destruction of Gaza and of the West Bank. Moreover, there is pressure now from Trump for EU nations to increase their military budgets, to up to 5% of nations' GDP. If people in Europe knew the cynical truth about U.S. provocations, they'd likely change their hawkish policies, which enrich U.S. military contractors.
Another, perhaps more important, reason to expose U.S. provocations in Ukraine is to undermine public support in the U.S. for the MICIMATT in general, and for the planned war with China, in particular. Many of the Trump administration advisors who want to stop the war in Ukraine are eager to prepare for war with China. Avoidable disastrous wars need to be stopped. The bloated Pentagon budget needs to be cut. The empire of overseas bases need to be unraveled. Regime change operations need to be curtailed. The culture of secrecy needs to be ended.

Moscow's terms or there will be no peace. This is why President Trump is flying to Moscow and Vladimir Putin will accept the visit. Any US soldiers and NATO including British soldiers even under the false pretext of "peacekeepers" in Ukraine under any conditions is not acceptable to Russia:
