Putin to Recognize Ukraine Separatist Territories as Independent – Kremlin
Moscow Times ^ | 2/21/22 | AFP

Russian President Vladimir Putin will recognize the independence of eastern Ukraine's separatist republics, the Kremlin said in a statement Monday, adding that he had informed the French and German leaders of his decision.

"In the near future, the president plans to sign the order," the Kremlin said. It added that French President Emmanuel Macron and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz had "expressed disappointment" over the decision in phone calls with Putin.

Joe will probably bless this arrangement, do a victory lap, and then go get some ice cream. Joe wanted Iraq to become 4 different states, so he would likely endorse two sectors of Ukraine to become puppet-states of Pooty-poot.

Ever notice how authoritarian WEF failures like Macron, Olav Sholz, Biden, Trudeau, etc cannot stop talking about Russia?
Imagine if Putin started meddling in the Yellow Vest protests, or DC Statehood, BLM or threw in with Texas in the US Border crisis, imagine if Putin started getting loud about the truckers convoy and sent a few billion to help them organize.

I think they are basically finished placating the western leaders whims and have learned that nothing short of turning over administration of Russia to the WEF will satisfy our leaders.

Or will Biden use it as a pretext to try to remove Putin from power as was attempted in Syria and Assad by tanking the Russian economy? Putin is a thorn in the side of the Great Reset crowd who hate his rebuilding of EO Christianity within Russia with its promotion of Christian sexual ethics. Of course, his nationalistic views are of great disgust to the one world government types who abhor nation states.

It would be the equivalent of Texas or California declaring independence. Don’t think the rest of Ukraine will agree to it.

Believe me, I’m with you. If you look back at all of my posts regarding this, I’ve been saying all along that Putin won’t invade, and this was a charade to give the Biden admin a win.

That being said, if this is Putin’s play — if — it’s something I didn’t see in the cards. Technically, it could be construed as an invasion, since they support those rebels, but it’s a more savvy political move than a straight-up, brute force invasion.

The media is set to praise Brandon for preventing WWIII.

Germans should really STFU about anything having to do with eastern Ukraine for another century or so.

Wirklich!

Yeah, they’ll be independent the same way East Germany was independent of Russia.

Sounds like Germany needs to declare war on pootie poot. It's none of our business.

Putin is rambling on and on and on about history and a bunch of other nonsense... Hopefully somebody in Russia can perform a sanity check on him... He appears to have truly lost his marbles, which isn’t good because he does have access to an awful lot of nuclear weapons... Does anybody out there have a bunker I can go to?

Looks like a lot of people are upset that Putin could get away with not pushing the gay agenda.

“In #Russia, the stock exchange index is down by 14.2% in Monday trading over concerns of a large scale invasion into Ukraine, erasing over $12.7 bn in market value in a single day. “

Little Pukin is making a big mistake.

Well, Biden supported Trudeau’s BIG power grab...told him to do it....effectively...Trudeau activated wht we would call War Powers AND he did it without Parliament voting on it.

“Don’t think the rest of Ukraine will agree to it.”

Apparently they don’t get a vote.

Absolutely that's the goal.

And right now, I think Brandon has been told by Hillary and Obama, because of the Durham Revelations....to move on...as they can't keep the media at bay forever.
