That might be true about 2010 Medvedev, but how is it consistent with 2025 Medvedev? You make him sound like he's Navalny lolmao

Putin was friendly with the West at one point too

Currently alive English people are responsible for not prosecuting Tony Blair after the Chilcot Report. Tony Blair is still alive. Get on it.

Okay. So you see what I'm saying then. Imperialists do this stuff.

Except what you have linked was already US State department propaganda

Could you please define imperialism in anywhere between 20 and 1000 words?

So what is a clandestine propaganda campaign if not this kind of shit:

On a tour in late September sponsored by Beijing, the 22 journalists from 17 countries visited bazaars [in Xinjiang] and chatted with residents over dates and watermelon slices. They later told state media they were impressed with the bustling economy, described the region as “full of cultural, religious and ethnic diversity,” and denounced what they said were lies by Western media.

The trip is an example of what Washington sees as Beijing’s growing efforts to reshape the global narrative on China. It’s spending billions of dollars annually to do so.

In a first-of-its-kind report, the State Department last week laid out Beijing’s tactics and techniques for molding public opinion, such as buying content, creating fake personas to spread its message and using repression to quash unfavorable accounts.

You are deeply unserious. Even the lack of evidence is clandestine by your thinking.

Pentagon ran secret anti-vax campaign to undermine China during pandemic

The U.S. military launched a clandestine program amid the COVID crisis to discredit China’s Sinovac inoculation – payback for Beijing’s efforts to blame Washington for the pandemic. One target: the Filipino public. Health experts say the gambit was indefensible and put innocent lives at risk.

Does this threaten "international security", liberal?

House passes $1.6 billion to deliver anti-China propaganda overseas

Somehow it’s a crime when Russia does it to us, but good 'information ops' when we want to discredit Beijing’s Belt & Road initiatives worldwide

a decline in options for Russian tourists travelling abroad.

umm can't they go literally anywhere except the EU? Like Egypt, Thailand etc.

This makes no sense; the kind of Russian tourist that wants to visit Paris or Milan wouldn't visit a random beach resort in the DPRK

this is just subliminal messaging for people scrolling:

"RUSSIA! NORTH KOREA! THEY ARE BAD, RUSSIA IS NOW JUST AS OSTRACIZED AS NORTH KOREA"

Also, I'm glad North Korea is less ostracized now because of this

"democracy" (in a country that already has elections)

At least implementing ranked-choice or score voting system would be something less nebulous, an actual goal that could be reached in a short period of time

Wouldn’t be enough but if I were a liberal, getting rid of an arcane voting system would be something I'd protest about

I guess D'hondt is better than FPTP but whatever

I'm not that up-to-date about the Serbian electoral system though

The bomb squad investigated themselves and found they are not at fault

Apparently it's peak democracy not to have elections because the constitution allows it during a war ~~that most Ukrainians want to end as fast as possible through negotiations but who cares what the plebs want~~

that's why we need to abolish private property in the means of productions
