A Message from Abp. Viganò: ON THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE CRISIS

Right from the get-go, let me say that I love the United States of America and will defend this nation with my last breath, but, I also hate being lied to and manipulated into believing war against any other nation is justified to preserve our, and/or other nation's so-called, democracies. After these past years of political unrest across this nation, it should be quite evident by now that nothing coming from the politician's mouths or from the mainstream news can be trusted to be truth or factually complete information. We have been lied to and so misinformed these past years, and the fact that most citizens are just so dumbed down to know any better, this nation is being ruled by the most corrupt political organization in the history of modern civilization. At this point, no branch of our government can be trusted to perform their intended responsibilities for the benefit of this nation or it's citizens.
To know the true situation of what is taking place in Ukraine today, one needs to know the past as well as the present concerning both of these nations.
Most people have short memories or have just never taken the time to be informed of past events, but the corruption of our own government has been doing their best to destabilize Ukraine for, at least, the past 13 years. George Soros has been at work there from even before that to effect regime change there. Remember Victoria Jane Nuland escapades there during the Obama administration? She is still involved there to this day.
Shortly after the beginning of this Covid-19 epidemic, we were informed that the United States, through the National Institute of Allergies and Infectious Diseases, in fact funded biological research in Wuhan, China. Because of this ongoing conflict in Ukraine, we now know that the United States is, most probably, funding these same types of research in some 20+ other nations around the globe, including in Ukraine.
Now and then, the truth does manage to leak out via alternative sources and one such source is "The Remnant", and one of it's contributors is Abp. Viganò, Former Apostolic Nuncio to the U.S. and he goes into great detail explaining the history and circumstances that evolved into this present conflict.

This is a fairly long read, but if one truly wants to know the reality of this situation, you will read this in its entirety. Open your eyes to truth!

The Remnant

A few snipits:

This is the trap set for both Russia and Ukraine, using both of them to enable the globalist elite to carry out its criminal plan.

The Media Narrative

If we look at what is happening in Ukraine, without being misled by the gross falsifications of the mainstream media, we realize that respect for each other’s rights has been completely ignored; indeed, we have the impression that the Biden Administration, NATO and the European Union deliberately want to maintain a situation of obvious imbalance, precisely to make impossible any attempt at a peaceful resolution of the Ukrainian crisis, provoking the Russian Federation to trigger a conflict. Herein lies the seriousness of the problem. This is the trap set for both Russia and Ukraine, using both of them to enable the globalist elite to carry out its criminal plan.
It should not surprise us that pluralism and freedom of speech, so praised in countries that claim to be democratic, are daily disavowed by censorship and intolerance towards opinions not aligned with the official narrative. Manipulations of this kind have become the norm during the so-called pandemic, to the detriment of doctors, scientists and dissenting journalists, who have been discredited and ostracized for the mere fact of daring to question the effectiveness of experimental serums. Two years later, the truth about the adverse effects and the unfortunate management of the health emergency has proven them right, but the truth is stubbornly ignored because it does not correspond to what the system wanted and still wants today.
If the world media have so far been able to lie shamelessly on a matter of strict scientific relevance, spreading lies and hiding reality, we should ask ourselves why, in the present situation, they should suddenly rediscover that intellectual honesty and respect for the code of ethics widely denied with Covid.

We come then to the Ukraine crisis, which is presented to us as a consequence of Vladimir Putin’s expansionist arrogance towards an independent and democratic nation over which he is trying to claim absurd rights. The “warmonger Putin” is said to be massacring the defenseless population, who have courageously arisen to defend the soil of their homeland, the sacred borders of their nation and the violated freedoms of the citizens. The European Union and the United States, “defenders of democracy,” are therefore said to be unable not to intervene by means of NATO to restore Ukraine’s autonomy, drive out the “invader” and guarantee peace. In the face of the “tyrant’s arrogance,” it is said that the peoples of the world ought to form a common front, imposing sanctions on the Russian Federation and sending soldiers, weapons and economic aid to “poor” President Zelensky, “national hero” and “defender” of his people.
The expansion of NATO

First of all, it is necessary to remember the facts, which do not lie and are not susceptible to alteration. And the facts, however irritating they are to recall to those who try to censor them, tell us that since the fall of the Berlin Wall the United States has extended its sphere of political and military influence to almost all the satellite states of the former Soviet Union, even recently, annexing into NATO Poland, the Czech Republic, and Hungary (1999); Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovenia, Slovakia, Bulgaria and Romania (2004); Albania and Croatia (2009); Montenegro (2017); and North Macedonia (2020). The North Atlantic Treaty Organization is preparing to expand to Ukraine, Georgia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia. Practically speaking, the Russian Federation is under military threat – from weapons and missile bases – just a few kilometers from its borders, while it has no military base in similar proximity to the United States.

To be considering the possible expansion of NATO into Ukraine, without thinking that it will arouse Russia’s legitimate protests, is nothing short of puzzling, especially given the fact that in 1991 NATO pledged to the Kremlin not to expand further.Not only that: at the end of 2021, Der Spiegel published drafts of a treaty with the United States and an agreement with NATO on security guarantees (here, here and here). Moscow demanded legal guarantees from its Western partners that would prevent NATO from further eastward expansion by adding Ukraine to the alliance and also from establishing military bases in post-Soviet countries. The proposals also contained a clause on the non-deployment of offensive weapons by NATO near Russia’s borders and on the withdrawal of NATO forces in Eastern Europe back to their 1997 positions.

As we can see, NATO has failed to keep its

The Ukrainian nuclear question

Finally, there is the issue of Ukrainian nuclear weapons. On February 19, 2022, at a conference in Munich, Zelensky announced his intention to end the Budapest Memorandum (1994), which prohibits Ukraine from developing, proliferating and using atomic weapons. Among the other clauses of the Memorandum, there is also the one that obliges Russia, the United States and the United Kingdom to refrain from using economic pressure on Ukraine to influence its policy: the pressure of the IMF and the United States to grant economic aid in exchange for reforms consistent with the Great Reset represent a further violation of the agreement.

It was an operation sponsored by George Soros, as he candidly told CNN: “I have had a foundation in Ukraine since before it became independent of Russia; this foundation has always been in business and has played a decisive role in today’s events.”

The color revolution in Ukraine and the independence of Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk

Another fact. In 2013, after the government of President Viktor Yanukovych decided to suspend the association agreement between Ukraine and the European Union and to forge closer economic relations with Russia, a series of protest demonstrations known as Euromaidan began, which lasted several months and culminated in the revolution that overthrew Yanukovych and led to the installation of a new government. It was an operation sponsored by George Soros, as he candidly told CNN: “I have had a foundation in Ukraine since before it became independent of Russia; this foundation has always been in business and has played a decisive role in today’s events” (here, here and here). This change of government provoked the reaction of Yanukovych’s supporters and of a part of the Ukrainian population opposed to the pro-Western shift of Ukraine, which had not been wanted by the population but was obtained by a color revolution, of which there had been general rehearsals in previous years in Georgia, Moldova and Belarus.

The Remnant

Amoung the peace talk, Russia wanted Ukraine to be a grey area, a neutral area. A place where NATO can not expand into.
I think that is a great idea, there need to be a buffer zone to keep the kids apart. As long the Russian do it to.
Russia should go home, and Ukraine should agree to become a natural zone. everyone is happy.

Oh, and Putin gonna pay for all the destruction in Ukraine, and pay the victims of this meaningless war.

Interesting that Zelenskiy brought that Budapest Memorandum up... I know they came out afterwards and firmly stated that they didn't want to make nukes again.
But if you look past that; What would Zelenskyi gain from tearing up that treaty?

It doesn't leave him or Ukraine in a better position in ANY way at all. So why mention it?

Can you source that pledge? Especially since Gorbachev has publicly stated no pledge ever existed.

a reply to: OccamsRazor04

Declassified documents show security assurances against NATO expansion to Soviet leaders from Baker, Bush, Genscher, Kohl, Gates, Mitterrand, Thatcher, Hurd, Major, and Woerner

a reply to: OccamsRazor04

The original article is chock-full of links and validations.

Read it.

Please source the Gorbachev statement.

I do have sympathy and compassion for both the Ukrainian, and Russian people. They are as much and even more victims of corruption than we are. We are nothing more than chattel to the corruption ruling over us.

So you want me to spend time reading something that was disproved by Russia years ago? No thanks. NATO promised not to expand into East Germany, they kept the promise.

“Gorbachev said: ‘The topic of “Nato expansion” was not discussed at all, and it wasn’t brought up in those years.’” ... “not a single east European country suggested it, even after the demise of the Warsaw pact in 1991. Western leaders didn’t raise the issue either.”

Nato’s spokespersona reply to: OccamsRazor04

The title of your first link: Nato is misquoting Mikhail Gorbachev

The Guardian article is nothing more than a he said she said article that provides no proof whatsoever. As a mater of fact, she is,

Nato’s spokesperson, Oana Lungescu (Letters, 6 March) shamelessly misquotes Mikhail Gorbachev to support her contention that the alliance never gave a commitment not to take in new members. She writes:

A poor choice to try to support your argument.


As far as the Brookings is concerned, everyone should already know that organization is nothing more than a far leftist think tank that will say anything in support of the anti-Russian aggressive agenda.

The other link, I have no desire to even investigate.



As you should realize by now, I will and do read opposition links.

You can read, can't you? It certainly will not kill you to read it.

As a mater of fact, I dare you to read it.


Double Dog Dare You.

I understand your statement about loving and defending the USofA, but you need to understand that the socio-political entity to which you refer no longer exists. It died. It was suicided. I deeply feel that there is nothing left of it to defend.
