The 2022 Russian Withdrawal From Kiev Was a Goodwill Gesture

by Chris Black

Why is this only being made public now?

Remember back in April of last year the Russian’s ‘retreated’ from Kiev and this was hailed as a Ukrainian victory?

Well, it turns out that was a gesture of Russian goodwill as part of a neutrality agreement.

Yesterday Putin revealed an extremely important piece of information. In April 2022, an agreement of permanent neutrality of Ukraine was signed between Russia and Ukraine.

It also reveals that the Western narrative that Putin can’t be trusted is just another projection.

The basic outline of the agreement is as follows:

1. Russia withdraws troops from Kiev, Sumy and Chernigov
2. Ukraine declares neutrality
3. Ukraine reduces its armed forces
4. Ukraine gives up NATO aspirations in exchange for security guarantees from a number of countries.

It was coined as the defeat of Russia in the battle of Kiev. It turns out that it was indeed a gesture of goodwill. Having snuffed it out, Boris Johnson flew to meet with Zelensky who subsequently, "on the orders of Washington, threw this treaty into the dustbin of history."

Since even before the conflict we've been hearing weasels like Paul Massaro and McFaul scream at the top of their lungs that Russia cannot be trusted and Russia always lies. But as we can see here the reality is quite different and it's the West and ukraine that constantly lie. pic.twitter.com/ZwEAOxPaGz
