Your first source doesn’t prove anything. Newspapers pre-write victory, obituary, and election-result pieces all the time; an accidentally published state-media article is embarrassing, not proof that the Russian government officially said “three days.” Lukashenko is, last time I checked, not a member of the Russian government. And the Putin “two weeks” claim traces back to some EU diplomat saying Putin said it privately, while Russia denies it. Maybe true, maybe not, but still not proof. All of this still leaves me confused as to why, seemingly all at once a while back, every lib on earth decided Russia/Putin had declared it a “3-day special military operation.”

On 2014, skipping the Western-backed Banderite coup and jumping straight to Crimea and “little green men,” while leaving out the fact that locals actively petitioned and asked Russia to intervene against Banderite violence and ethnic cleansing, is certainly a choice.

You also brush past the Donbas as if ethnic cleansing and years of shelling are irrelevant. If your position is that Kiev had the right to ethnically cleanse the Donbas while Russia had no right to intervene, even after locals again asked for intervention to let them break away from the Banderites repressing and ethnically cleansing them, just say that.

And dragging up “the Holodomor” in 2026 is again certainly a choice: the “deliberate anti-Ukrainian genocide” framing is straight from Goebbels Nazi propaganda.
