Even the Germans! It always starts with a mild comment. It is just like breaking the ice. Then you realize that you were a victim of propaganda, & start hedging by increasing your insinuations. Just look at the progression of Piers Morgan.

Ah, minor, minor details most of the Russia commentators don't even know...

The masks are finally off. Putin openly admits that “all Ukraine is ours.” That proves my point from February 24, 2022, that Russia has started a full-scale war to subjugate and annex all of Ukraine. Whether it will succeed, is a different issue. #Velsig

Nowadays, there is even bifurcation of narratives reflecting the Bifurcation of the Global System: the US & allies go for Indo-Pacific vs China & Russia go for Asia-Pacific.
