Russian Media tell a different story.

Hey Paul1405
"The dropping of atomic bombs on the civilian populations of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were two of the worse war crimes in history. The fact they were carried out by the so called "good guys" with some lame excuse, was no more justification than if the Americans had no excuse.

As I understand it, Japan were already on the ropes anyway.
WWII wouldn't have gone on for much longer, but they dropped those atomic bombs anyway just because they could.

Hey Josephus
You could probably just as easily change all of those statements critical of Russia and apply them directly to the West instead, and it would be just as valid.

"While some opposition publications attempt to counter the narrative, mainstream Australian news outlets have largely fallen into line—even if the results are unlikely to fool discerning Aussie readers who have been exposed to years of propaganda. The resulting stories are as striking for what they omit as what they actually publish..."

Pauliar,

What Part of Russia dictating Ukraine's foreign policy is "legitimate"

I suppose for you the murdering of 1000s of Ukrainian women and children is OK.

SM,

America seems to have no problem dictating foreign policy for the rest of the world. Australia is trying to alter China's foreign policy in the Pacific. Russia might have some legitimate concerns if Yankee nukes are pointed et them from Ukraine. Ultimately that is what the world's biggest bully boy want to do, point nuclear missiles at everyone else.

Western democracy is just rule by western monetary policy

World Bank outlines $700m in planned loans in call with Zelenskyy

World Bank president David Malpass has told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy the bank is working on loan programs worth about $700 million for Ukraine that will be disbursed by the end of March.

- He might need a bit more than 700m by the end of March.
Alternatively he might not have much of Ukraine left to worry about.
