They look to the real causes of Russian actions in Ukraine beyond the Western war propaganda. The story goes back to the 90\u2019s and the dissolution of the Soviet Union when the NATO powers guaranteed the Russian leadership that they wouldn\u2019t expand toward Russian borders. They broke that promise. Then the story moves to a US-backed coup in Ukraine in 2014 and the fallout after separatist movements tried to secede. Norton provides this history and more important context in this moment of insecurity.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div style=\"text-align:center\">\n    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/EL3tQkgkocI\" title=\"YouTube video player\" style=\"border:thick ridge #009900;\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<pre><\/pre>\n<p>Check out <a href=\"https:\/\/multipolarista.com\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">multipolarista.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lee Camp&#8217;s Redacted Tonight has the episode VIP | The Truth About Ukraine with Ben Norton.
