Crazy thing, everybody might know of a situation where everybody knows what happened and who did what but it's not until the war of words heats up that it starts to get really bad. I guess there is an element with the war of words that people publicly get their noses out of joint and start talking about saving face with a world war or something. Go figure and have a listen to the language being used.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has alleged that “hundreds” of American servicemen are deployed to Ukraine, claiming that US soldiers, military advisers, and intelligence officers have long been direct participants in the conflict.
“The collective West, which is headed by a nuclear power – the United States – is at war with us,” he said. “This war was declared on us quite a long time ago, after the coup d'etat in Ukraine that was orchestrated by the United States and, in fact, backed by the European Union.”
