EU Parliament sneaks in an anti-Russian war-mongering resolution

By the way, Orwell only missed by 30 years or so. Reading the EU resolution, once comes to the conclusion that lies are truth, war is peace, freedom is oppression and black is white.

Quote

27. Calls on the Commission and the Commissioner for European Neighbourhood Policy and Enlargement Negotiations to prepare and present to Parliament within two months a communication strategy to counter the Russian propaganda campaign directed towards the EU, its eastern neighbours and Russia itself, and to develop instruments that would allow the EU and its Member States to address the propaganda campaign at European and national level;

The wording that they chose is actually a declaration of war.

Quote

5. Strongly condemns Russia’s aggressive and expansionist policy, which constitutes a threat to the unity and independence of Ukraine and poses a potential threat to the EU itself, including the illegal annexation of Crimea and waging an undeclared hybrid war against Ukraine, including information war, blending elements of cyber warfare, use of regular and irregular forces, propaganda, economic pressure, energy blackmail, diplomacy and political destabilisation; stresses that these actions are in breach of international law and constitute a serious challenge to the European security situation; emphasises that there is no justification for the use of military force in Europe in defence of so-called historical and security motives or for the protection of one’s so-called ‘compatriots living abroad’; calls on Moscow to stop escalating the situation by immediately halting the flow of weapons, mercenaries and troops in support of the separatist militias and to use its influence with the separatists to convince them to engage in the political process;

Proof? Psaki couldn't give any. On the other hand, what were NATO Herculeses landing off the borders of Novorossia, what were NATO warships delivering to the (historically Russian) port of Odessa? Why the freedom fighters of Novorossia find American gear on the territories liberated from Ukrainian Nazi occupants?

Why was American flag flying over Ukrainian SBU and one of its floos reserved for CIA officers, off-limits to Ukrainian servicemen? Whe was Biden, Kerry, Nuland, and now the Commander of the US Ground Forces visiting Kiev, with the magnitude of genocide in Donbass increasing a couple of days after each such visit?

As for Crimea, EU is very hypocritical in reaffirming the voluntaristic unconstitutional (according to the USSR constitution) transfer of Crimea in contradiction to the wishes of the people living there, yet EU condemns the exercise of direct democracy during which Crimeans chose to ceceed from under Ukrainian occupation rule.

Oh, and wars were fought before over lesser insults than this EU resolution. Good thing Russia is interested in peace in Europe and will be working towards it despite American war-mongering.

EU Parliament’s Anti-Russian Resolution and an Army of US Manchurian Candidates

And a comment of hers to a question of "when and where will it stop"? (Interestingly this questions can be heard being asked by the rebels in Half-Life 2)

They’ll stop when people of the EU finally tell them ‘no more.’
For as long as they can swindle millions into ‘unity marches’ while sneaking in resolutions like this, nothing will change. Someone’s pushing people’s buttons, and they as usual fall for it. The moment protest rallies against US/West’s aggression against Ukraine and Russia gathers 1mln people in the EU, the moment they unelect corrupt US puppets out of Europarliament – all this will stop. They can only do all this for as long as people allow them to do it.

The second group consists specifically of Polish, Lithuanian, Latvian and Estonian (the Baltics) deputies in the EU Parliament. These, I can assure you, also studied in the US in the same period, based on the US grants.

While we were all asleep throughout the 1990s, the US was busy creating an army of Manchurian Candidates to deploy all over the world.

Romanian, Croatian and Bulgarian EU Parliament deputies participate to a lesser degree, on average more quietly and reluctantly, or perhaps, they stay neutral. Hungarian, Slovenian, Czech and Slovak deputies have, to a degree, grown up. Consequently, it’s not as cool as before to be rabidly Russophobic in those parts. To that end, at least some of them (not all) by now grasp who is pulling their strings; therefore, in part they are out of the Russia-bashing game.

That said, there are pro-Russia, or at least reasonable, forces even in Poland and the Baltics, who are being silenced or shunned.
