    1. That’s because we knew it was wrong. Chretien said so live on air. We shouldn’t be involved in this either.

  1. Well, what you do is, move a bunch of troops into position, and then wait patiently for NATO to get ready. This is called military genius.

  2. This ambassador to Canada is a joke!… Russia’s best and most influential diplomats are in Washington and London. Interviewing them would be much more useful and interesting.

  3. “A matter of perception” which has lead many countries to ship military equipment to Ukraine. All of which is a waste of the world’s resources during a pandemic. Perception matters.

  4. I’m pretty pro-Russian. I don’t like what is happening there domestically, but in terms of their foreign policy, I think it’s time the west showed a little respect. Having said that, claiming that there’s a military presence for no reason at all is not very convincing. It would be much more fruitful to say, “we don’t want to invade but we will if we have to defend against decades of continued western aggression” Be honest and you might actually get some converts

    1. it is being done to show the west that they should’ve nothing to say while the troops are in russian border or in countries in which they are welcomed

  5. Well actually no this Diplomat gave the right answer. Russian troop’s have the right to conduct excerises in Russia on there own boarders. Yes we have right to support Ukrainian anyway we can cause we believe in democracy & so does Ukrainian.

  6. What I would say is…. there is no need for talking, just get out of Ukraine and stop making your own citizens suffer for your corruption.

  7. Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list. In some months time you’ll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.

    1. Yeah!! ‌Due to the fall in the stock market, I don’t think it’s advisable holding, it would be more beneficial and yield more profit if you actually trade on cryptocurrency I’ve been trading since the dip, and I’ve made so much profit trading.

  8. if Russia says they have no intentions of invading Ukraine , true or not sending 100k nato soldiers at the borders of Romania/Ukraine and Poland/ukraine might be prudent and make it true if it wasn’t.

  9. Well actually no this Diplomat gave the right answer. Russian troop’s have the right to conduct excerises in Russia on there own boarders. Yes we have right to support Ukrainian anyway we can cause we believe in democracy & so does Ukrainian.
