They cheated! Just brazenly tricked us!" Russian President Vladimir Putin said angrily at his annual press conference on December 23, 2021. He said that NATO had deceived Russia by violating the promise made in the 1990s - "Not one inch to the East."
Countless facts show that the US is the instigator of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. As an old man in Ukraine said before the outbreak of the conflict, the deterioration of relations between Russia and Ukraine is not the doing of Russians or Ukrainians, but the sole doing of the United States.

So what do the Chinese say? https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202204/1259735.shtml Russian President Vladimir Putin said angrily that NATO had deceived Russia by violating the promise made in the 1990s - "Not one inch to the East."
Global times is a questionable source that promotes pro Chinese propaganda with low credibility according to Media bias fact check. Politifact rates false the claim that NATO violated past promise to never expand eastward. No legal agreement exists that has been signed by any NATO country. During discussion of Germany unification, no talk of NATO expansion came up because the Soviet union and Warsaw pact were still intact in 1990. None of this justifies Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

Absolutely true, KellyM!
We see the start of it now, with Russia being forced to sell their oil at deep discounts to whomever will take it.
But there's no embargo on it yet. If that happens, and I give it a 50/50 chance, then they will be forced to sell it even cheaper, barely making any profit, from the few willing buyers. Those few buyers will have bigtime leverage on the Russians, and they know it.
bottom line there some rogue nations who sympatize with international terrorism and war criminals , will buy their oil but they r going to get it big time cheap and russia will make only a small fraction of the profits they r used to getting from their oil

US and other Western finance ministers walk out of G20 meeting with Russia
CNN —
Finance ministers from multiple nations walked out of a closed-door G20 session in Washington on Wednesday when the Russian delegate began his prepared remarks, a show of protest against Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine.
US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen participated in the walkout, as did other Western officials who were participating in the meeting.
Canada’s finance minister Chrystia Freeland wrote on Twitter, “The world’s democracies will not stand idly by in the face of continued Russian aggression and war crimes.”
She tweeted a photo of officials who left meeting, including Yellen, US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell and European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde. Ukrainian officials also spoke at the session as invited guests, and also walked out during Russia’s presentation.

The tranche of defense aid, which follows a similar $800-million package last week, will include more heavy artillery and offensive weaponry that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has requested as the war shifts into a ground conflict that could go on for months.
The package brings the total amount of U.S. defense assistance for Ukraine since the war began to $3.4 billion.
"We're not sitting on the funding that Congress has provided for Ukraine. We're sending it directly to the front lines of freedom,"
Biden also announced the U.S. would provide Ukraine with an additional $500 million in humanitarian aid.

Actually, I see tonight that Biden's new package has expanded to 72 Howitzers, 2,000 rounds for each Howitzer and 121 tactical military drones! This is addition to what other western nations are providing as well!
