Russia in "full blown invasion"; cannot stop lying.

Today, Ukrainian officials claimed as many as 15,000 Russian soldiers were now invading Ukraine.

Separately, a top rebel leader boasted in a video that up to 4,000 Russian soldiers are fighting side by side in Ukraine.

On top of that, NATO released photos of a variety of Russian military vehicles and equipment flowing into Ukraine, setting up positions inside of Ukraine, and pointing towards Ukrainian positions.

A Russian solider lobbying group (Committee of Soldiers’ Mothers) has even said that Russian military personnel, sons and fathers, are being sent to Ukraine, often against their will, to fight for Putin's and Medvedev's war against Ukraine.

Additionally, we have video evidence of Russian heavy armor equipment columns.



There is no mistake: RUSSIA IS AT WAR WITH UKRAINE.

So what did Russia say in response?  They lied and said that they were not responsible.  Incredible.  Their personnel and equipment are caught in Ukraine, and they still deny what's going on.

You can't trust Russian President Vladimir Putin and you can't trust Russian PM Dmitry Medvedev; you just can't believe them anymore.  You simply cannot trust any Russian government official these days.

  • They lied about the threat of Fascism, in order to justify the annexation of Crimea, even while Putin continued to talk about "Novorussia" -- an expansion of Russia's borders.
  • They lied and provided fake evidence about the source of the equipment used to bring down Malaysian flight MH17.
  • They refused to allow inspectors full access to their "humanitarian aid" shipments, and violated international law by entering Ukraine without permission, while lying about what was in those trucks.
  • They lied about the participation of Russian soldiers in Ukraine, saying that they were across the border by accident.  Apparently Russian military personnel don't know how to use their GPS equipment, or maybe Russia is telling us that GLONASS is terrible?
  • And now, despite photographic evidence provided, they're actively lying about their military personnel and equipment.  The alternative here, is that Russia does not care where hundreds of its equipment and weaponry and its supplies are -- or as I would suggest, let's go steal a hundred tanks!
The worst part about it all?  Russians still believe in the lies.  Russia has openly invaded Ukraine and they still deny what's going on.

The partners of Putin and Medvedev have officially restarted the Cold War.  Don't be surprised if there's a bipartisan push for the US and European allies to directly supply Ukraine equipment and supplies.
