You may want to consider re-evaluating that opinion based on the following irrefutable evidence:

The 2014 coup was backed by the USA, remember the recording of Victoria Nuland, selecting who would become the leaders, and saying "F**k the EU".

It is interesting how suddenly, as soon as the main stream media starts spewing hate with regard to a particular person, (Putin), people accept it as gospel and parrot it far and wide. People who do this need to consider the facts before assuming that the media and the president are telling the truth . . . . THESE are the irrefutable facts:

From Der Spiegel, November 26, 2009 :
NATO's Eastward Expansion: Did the West Break Its Promise to Moscow?
What the US secretary of state said on Feb. 9, 1990 in the magnificent St. Catherine's Hall at the Kremlin is beyond dispute. There would be, in Baker's words, "no extension of NATO's jurisdiction for forces of NATO one inch to the east," provided the Soviets agreed to the NATO membership of a unified Germany. Moscow would think about it, Gorbachev said, but added: "any extension of the zone of NATO is unacceptable."

Obama admitted his role in the US-supported coup in Ukraine. (First video link below).
Victoria Nuland, Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs at the United States Department of State, admits in the second video that the USA supported the Ukrainian coup with 5 billion dollars. Note the Chevron symbol in the background of the video. John McCain (Senator Lovewar himself) and Victoria Nuland were in Ukraine in December 2013 amid the mass anti-government protests. (The third video is of John McCain in Ukraine addressing protesters.) During the visit, McCain met with Ukrainian opposition leaders in the country’s capital of Kiev, voicing his support for the protests, adding that he saw Ukraine’s future with Europe.
Obama admits the US-sponsored coup:

German ex-Chancellor Angela Merkel admits that they were lying about the Minsk Agreements.

Three major corporations bought millions of acres of land in Ukraine immediately after the 2014 US-sponsored coup . . . . no planning there at all, right?

This is the butt naked clown the USA government has such a hard on for, that they are sending Billions of our tax dollars to. .

@Archeus_Lore Evidence is never irrefutable. News and website info vary all over because of different opinions and a desire to get an audience. It's called "selling the news." Looking back in time is a distraction and I doubt any of this invasion has anything to do with Nazis.

@DenoPenno Keep on doubting . . . . it's ALL fake, me too, I am just a figment of your imagination.
