I ask the legimate question: Suppose a country other than Russia had waged war on Ukraine? How would the political situation, the refugee policy be seen? Would Ukraine be supplied with tanks and ammunition for peace, along with reconstruction funds? Are we forgetting that Ukraine once belonged to Russia and that a large part of the population was born Russian or has Russian roots? And today we are supplying weapons to a country that was ruled fascistically and corruptly and killed many people.
Black and white: Russia, the bad guy, America (Gulf War), the good guy. Never in my 90 years has it become so clear to me how an enemy image is being fomented – and the countries in Europe are joining in. Where are the scholars who have the courage to point out the true background of the conflict so that we are not lied to?
