DISINFO: Kyiv is cannon fodder for US interests

SUMMARY

The Kyiv regime, led by Volodymyr Zelenskyy, intends to use US military aid only to destroy even more Ukrainians. Despite the disastrous outcome of 2024, Zelenskyy and his junta insist on prolonging the war at all costs and still sacrificing thousands and thousands of Ukrainian citizens. They will all be used as cannon fodder for US interests, which aim to use Ukraine to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia.

RESPONSE

Recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative claiming that the US is waging a proxy-war against Russia, using Ukraine as a tool.

The claim of the article, made in the context of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, is part of a wider disinformation campaign to promote the ideas of failed Ukrainian counteroffensive, the inevitability of Russia’s victory and ultimately the need to compromise and accept Russia’s terms.

Ukraine is defending itself, its territorial integrity, national self-identity and sovereignty against Russia's armed aggression. The decision to defend itself was made solely by Ukraine, its lawful leaders and government, and citizens.

Ukraine is a sovereign and independent state with a democratically-elected president and parliament. Ukraine's sovereignty has been violated only as a result of continuous acts of aggression by the Russian armed forces since 2014, culminating with a full-scale military invasion of Ukraine starting on 24 February 2022.

Russia is the only country responsible for the invasion of Ukraine. It has been coming up with different explanations and pretexts for its aggression since the beginning of its hostilities. Moreover, Russia was not forced to invade Ukraine. It was Putin’s personal decision to invade Ukraine and start the largest military conflict in Europe since WWII.

The US is not interested in the continuation of the war and only supports Ukraine with military and financial aid for the country’s efficient self-defence against the unprovoked Russian invasion. Not only US but also many other nations around the world support Ukraine with military and financial aid for the country’s efficient self-defence, in accordance with the UN Charter article 51, to stop Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine.
