The Biden administration has been working with Congress on legislation that would formally designate Russia as an “aggressor state.” Retired Army Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling explains why this move is significant. #CNN #News
Analyst says new ‘aggressor state’ label for Russia is ‘very significant’
It’s always been my contention that Moscow and Beijing are made to look “tough” by their media, their well choreographed parades and ofcourse their citizens who believes that. 🇺🇲 🇺🇦
Lol clearly a bot the us military doesn’t see skin colors all it sees is OD green and that’s it, to think 98k people died unreported is just asinine we know exactly how many troops died over 20 years in the desert. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM
@MARCUS HAMILTON You are obviously one of Prigozhin’s trollfarm buttboys.Your English is imperfect and you are repeating standard poot-poot lies 200k in Afghanistan ?? what a joke ,.Don’t include Black soldiers in casualty lists ?? riiight Never won a war ?? OK , Boris China has fought no wars since 1953. Their army looks good on parade, but has NO combat experience. I’m not an American and don’t even like the U.S.Army , but I know Russia lies when I see them “”.. BTW U.S. lost 58k in VN NVA/ Viet cong lost 2million..
@Lawrence Iverson You don’t like US army but here you are defending it vehemently. Why did the so called best army leave Afghanistan after having achieved nothing? They also got their butts kicked by Somalians. US army is a joke and they would get destroyed by China. You don’t need any experience to defeat LGBTQ military.
@MARCUS HAMILTON Pointing out Petrograd trollfarm LIES is not defending U.S. Army. Anyhow ,I know you guys get paid by response and I’ve already made you enough roubles today ,so BYYYEEE!!!!
@Lawrence Iverson so parroting lies by MSM is nowadays considered being progressive? How much are you going to give Zelensky this time around for committing genocide on his people? Russia stands for the truth and soon enough all the people around the world are gonna wake up from their slumber and see America for what it truly is. An evil empire hell bent on maintaing it’s hegemony. Doesn’t have any true friends but only cares about its interests. We are moving to multipolarity and we understand that the evil empire will throw everything it has to stop that from becoming a reality. You should also ask Congress to give you money cause your doing a really great job here defending the evil empire.
Good to see Gen. Hertling !!!

Remember when Putin said that Russia had no intentions of invading Ukraine?
A wise man once said:
“Believing in Putin, means disrespecting yourself.”
Slava Ukraini!! 🇺🇦 🇺🇲
@Future Time Traveller
No – the founders were not worried about private companies. While they could not imagine the internet, had you suggested to them that every newspaper or magazine should be required to publish anything any goober wants to put out there, they would have laughed at you.
You people are foolish and spoiled. The 1st amendment applies only to the government. A private business does not OWE YOU anything! Certainly not an unfettered global platform to say what you want without regard to how it might affect their business! Anyone can cheaply and easily set up their own website to air their views if they want and the government will not interfere. And it is not “oppression” if the things you say piss off millions of people and they let you know it.
@Pat Doyle i’m afraid you have sorely missed the point
have a poptart with some lemon tea and relax
@Not a guinea pig (Andy peltola) :
Putin = Hitler
Putin’s Russia = Hitler’s Germany
FSB = Gestapo
Wagner Group (Putin’s private army) = Waffen SS
Today’s Russians are the Nazis of the 21st Century. Ostracise any of them that support Putin and his regime.
@Future Time Traveller
In other words, you have no intelligent reply to FACTS! What a shock!
@Nature Blank 🇷🇺 Ukraine is not attempting to take land from Russia. You’re very confused
President Zelensky was an actor and comedian before entering politics and statesmanship, so he knows how to deal with hecklers like Gazpacho girl and Lauren Boobert when he addresses Congress.
Zelenski visits America in his Halloween costume brown t-shirt and he will leave with his bag full of our tax dollars…how sad. No accounting of where the billions are going.
@R.U. Sure pathetic cross posting the same comment over and over. It’s sad that’s all you have. Do you get the same amount of rubles each time?
@Bar If I send out one message or a million, I get paid the same amount of rubles. So you dissagree with how I send the message but you know the message is correct.
@R.U. SureAWWW!!! Gomer, Is he cutting into your Meth budget???
@Lawrence Iverson I repeated Zelensiki’s words, so are you saying he’s on meth?
The fact that Russia lost fifteen years of their economic gain in such a short time and lose the respect of nations would take decades and generations to heal. 🇬🇧 🇺🇦
@PhilT You do grasp that we Irish were the very definition of economic migrants when we fled the famine in the 1840s, and again in waves of migration from the 1940s to arguably today? What’s your point? Economic Migrants Bad?!
@natasha wallace Too bad your dear leader is not “law abiding”. His stupid invasion of Ukraine has made the Russian people suffer. You should not support that idiot as your leader if you want Russia to prosper in the world.
@ 77th – Ukraine is paying in blood, and we in the west are paying in material support, to keep Russia tied down in the kill box that Ukraine has become for the invaders. This ill-considered action is damaging Russia profoundly. The longer they stay in, the deeper their demographic damages will be, the poorer they will be, the smaller military they will have, the fewer allies they will have.
Still have my respect ? And I’m a US citizen. If you haven’t noticed every economy is struggling lately hand in hand
@Wanderer It is foolish to enjoy Russia’s losses at the expense of your losses. Europe is now acting like in that joke: “I’ll knock out my eye to spite my mother-in-law. Let the mother-in-law be reproached for having a son-in-law without an eye”
I know we are talking about a specific qualification but on the surface calling Russia an “aggressor state” seems like an understatement.
@Xela somar gotta love the earthers
It’s true it sounds less than it is though. It makes trade with them near impossible even for nations like sadi and china because it declares them enemies of all sovereign nations. it’s a major blacklist that would cripple any economy. By the end of it Russia will be amongst the poorest third world nations if they don’t get rid of this regine.
@Corinne M. You forgot that the flag of the revolution was torn from the beautiful people by the radicals. Nationalist fighters paid directly by foreign sponsors. When your revolution is paid for from abroad, then this is not a revolution, this is a violent seizure of power. Moreover, they immediately called for the killing of Russians. They shouted. They jumped. They unleashed a civil war in Ukraine. You yourself called the Russians, and now they have come, so don’t cry.
@natasha wallacewhataboutism BS!
@Corinne M. Who gave you the right to speak on behalf of Ukrainians in your anti-Russian speech? I am Ukrainian. I was against the “revolution of dignity”, which was a putsch. I was against US Representative Nuland, who was handing out cookies in the square and calling for the overthrow of the legitimate government. I was against the CIA, who occupied an entire floor in the Security Service of Ukraine and managed, firstly, the shooting on the Maidan, and secondly, the attempted assassination of President Yanukovych. I’m sick of your lies about democracy. As a Ukrainian, I am grateful to Russia for respecting Ukraine’s independence until the CIA and NATO intervened there.
US designating Russia an aggressor state will give US and NATO, ‘Greater lee-way”…..F16s and F15s going to Ukrainia will put fear into Russia. Patriot going to Ukraine will be hugely important. But all-weather F16’s/F15 E’s will play hell in ground-attack roles, let alone air-combat.
Unfortunately for the world, Putin is a profoundly damaged person. He may need to feel the kind of “love” that only fifth-gen NATO aircraft can deliver.
You don’t win wars with a defense only – absolutely damn right!!!!!!!!!
Bout time the whole world steps up and finishes this off, get it over and done with so the world can then finally live in peace and harmony.
🇦🇺
How about a “War Criminal” state seems more accurate, or the “State from Hell” even more so.
Glory to the Ukranian people 💕🇺🇦💯💪God save Ukraine🇺🇦🇺🇸🙏
The USA killed after the WW2 till 30 million people worldwide in their illegal wars, because of their totally sick, degenerated Elites and their greed, because of oil, geopoltical interests, rare minerals, drugs and so on…..For the dumb , uneduceted, brainwashed population your goverment and the msm propaganda machine says,it s for freedom, democracy, values… LoL 🤣🤡 It s must be insane to think, living in a democracy,but it s a 100% plutocracy…..So the name “War Criminal” or “State from Hell”suits and stand for the USA…..
Sounds like we should have gotten the Patriots to Ukraine at least months ago. Like when they were ASKING for them.
So you think Russia is going to sit back while American money kills Russians, I don’t think America should have got tied up with a country that could cause us nuclear war.
Media have been repeating that Russia is about to run out of missiles for months, why would we feel an urgency to provide defenses against them that takes several months to deploy and training to use? Sending patriots is like admitting that Russian missiles will be raining down on Ukraine for a long time to come and i guess they really didn´t want to do that in Washington.
Well I guess vladdy Boy hasn’t realized he picked the wrong fight with the wrong gang of people🤔
Vlad is not that bright. He’s got his arms stuck in a wood chipper. The longer he stays in, the more he loses. And we of the West are more than happy to help Ukraine box Russian forces into that particular KZ.
The contrast between Zelesnky and Putin is striking.
@R.U. Sure In your sick mind.
@Катерина Иванова Tell Zelenski, he’s the one that said, “We will fight until the last Ukrainian.”
@Damir Kozlica I repeated Zelenski’s words so are you saying Zelenski has a sick mind?
Putin is typical bully! Have you seen this guy visit his troops on the frontline?! Nope! He hide’s on that long table of his! Zelensky is another breed! Yup, Putin is a CLOWN with black nose!!!
@R.U. Sure get a life. Stay in your borders. Russians live to the same standard as Syrians. Get your own dumpster fire of a country in order before dreaming about expanding.
Long live President Zelensky! He is a great leader with courage and honor! Praying for his safe travels. ❤ Slava Ukraini! Слава Україні! Glory to the heroes!
He is a nazi. Don’t you read the news? Oh wait, that’s the problem.
I stand with the Pope. You provoked this.
Putler goes to Minsk – Zelensky goes to Washington DC – God bless America – Slava Ukraini
Putin is not welcome in civilized capitals, he even makes the Chinese squirm. They hold their noses when they must see him or insult him. The rest do not care to let him in. He would be SHUNNED and booed
@sharmana100 Ukraine is fighting for it’s future AND ours. Next would be Poland or Moldova. Appeasement never works. Give a strong reaction response or perish. NATO will not perish. The EU will not perish.
@Mack
OK what about Russia and Ukraine who created the problem
did u see Angela Merkels statement- German chanceller- She said we did not meant to honour the Minsk agreement we wanted to buy time to train and strenthen the Ukranian army.
U certainly dont mess with Russia – they may not be very rich but they are strong and true to their words- they have destroyed Ukraine and Russia is your eternal enemy
@Corinne M.
Ukraine will Perish
Why EU or NATO fights Russia directly, why NATO firing guns on Ukrianes shoulder.
I feel sorry for Ukraninans they are being used as cannon fodder in this war
@Mack Ukraine refused to honor the Minsk Agreement of 2015 and are now paying the price with their lives. The U.S. tax payers are paying the price by having to give their money to the weapons manufacturers and politicians that are making a killing of another sort.
China urging Russia to negotiate a peace is significant.
@Adam Beal When you are looking for Russian trolls under every bush, you become a Russian troll yourself. Now you need to preface each post with the words: “I am not a Russian troll!”, otherwise they will not believe.
@MKody smart commies? c’mon! lol
@James Street yea ive said the same thing before the whole logic is just twisted and stupid from russia…I wish my state was Florida but that doesn’t mean I can just call it Florida or absolve Florida into my state…if people want to live somewhere in the year 2022 with freedom of travel you can just move there…nobody was stopping anyone…putin just lost his puppet government in ukraine right before zelenskyy took over and was elected- putin couldn’t control or manipulate him like his buddy in Belarus so he got fed up and decided to take ukraine back as he always wanted to do reclaiming old soviet territory… by this same logic the UK can just come take the US back, the French can have a chunk too.
@Иван Мартыненко Then on to the last European.
@Иван Мартыненко
For example?
Great information, keep delivering! Glory to Ukraine.
Hear hear, Gen. Hertling. Well said!!!
So glad a stable man is president while a nuclear war is about to break out. I was in tears.
