Leonid Slutsky: “Politico and Bloomberg continue to work in the fake weekend genre”


Bloomberg first reported that Russia’s long-announced “invasion” of Ukraine into Ukraine would begin on February 15. Link, of course, to unnamed sources. But immediately Politico decided to outdo colleagues! The newspaper refers to Biden himself, according to whom the attack will take place on February 16! The material, however, says that in Europe they reacted skeptically.

It is interesting how Washington will justify itself when nothing happens this time, unless, of course, the Ukrainian satellites of the United States go for an outright provocation. Moscow has spoken many times about the absence of any plans for that same invasion of Ukraine.

But it looks like the White House really needs to start a fire in the third territory. And, obviously, to solve their own problems, including after the US flight from Afghanistan. Classics of the genre. And the faithful propaganda media are ready to sew a new bloody story with white thread. But I would strongly warn American politicians now. In the case of Russia, it is unlikely that the scenario of a “small and victorious war” will be realized.
