NATO Chief Admits: “War Didn’t Start In February Last Year, The War Started In 2014”

Zero Hedge: With the one-year anniversary of Russia’s Feb.24, 2022 invasion of Ukraine just around the corner, NATO secretary general Jens Stoltenberg this week issued some surprising words regarding the history and origin of the conflict. In essence he finally admitted an important truth, which is of course extremely rare among top Western officials these days.

Whereas prior to these fresh remarks by Stoltenberg, US and NATO officials including major media, have framed the invasion exclusively as merely one man’s (Putin) ‘unprovoked’ naked aggression bent on enlarging an ‘expansionist Russia’, Stoltenberg now much belatedly admits “the war didn’t start in February last year. The war started in 2014.

🇺🇸🇪🇺🇺🇦🇷🇺”NATO has been training the Ukrainian military since 2014, NATO partners have been supplying the Ukrainian armed forces with the necessary weapons and training since 2014″ — Jens Stoltenbergs admits again

Here’s what the NATO chief said during a briefing to reporters, and in front of cameras, as also transcribed and published to NATO’s official website

“The other thing I will say is that the war didn’t start in February last year. The war started in 2014. And since 2014, NATO Allies have provided support to Ukraine, with training, with equipment, so the Ukrainian Armed Forces were much stronger in 2022, than they were in 2020, and 2014. And of course, that made a huge difference when President Putin decided to attack Ukraine,” Stoltenberg said.

And of course, a central reason for the war articulated by President Putin both in the lead-up to the invasion and after has consistently been that the West was waging an anti-Russia proxy war right at its doorstep, namely in the war-torn Donbass.  more. h/t joe6pak

  1. Victoria Nuland should be at the front of the line waiting for their turn at the lamp post. Right behind her, ValGal and Obama.

    And for fucks sake, surely there must be ONE Mitch Rapp to get GD Soros.

    Pay per view would wipe out the deficit.

    Stella Stevens dead at 84.
    I remember her from the original Jerry Lewis “The Nutty Professor” and Dean Martin Matt Helm movie, “The Silencers”.

  3. Haven’t heard much from Ursula von der Leyen after she admitted in December that Ukraine has lost over 100,000 soldiers in the war. I expect Stoltenberg will be joining her in the Time-Out for blurting the truth. Who’s next on the GloboNATO Truth train?
