EA on DW News and Talk TV: How Kremlin Manipulated Trump and His Envoy Witkoff
EA’s Cormac Smith joined Pakistan TV on Wednesday to set out the latest situation on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and to take apart the propaganda of a pro-Kremlin activist.
Cormac explains Moscow’s refusal to engage in talks for a ceasefire on current frontlines, with the support of the Trump camp, as it hopes to force Ukraine’s surrender this winter.
He then dissects the claims and disinformation of Alexey Malinin.
Mr. Malinin is lying. There have been no offers from Russia to ceasefire. On the other hand, [Ukraine President Volodymyr] Zelensky has made around 10 offers of unconditional ceasefires to restart the talks.
Viewers must know that Russia lies on an industrial scale. So does Malinin.
