I suspect, but have no proof l, that the US was involved in some way, at least in terms of not being surprised if facts emerged that prove it. There’s circumstantial evidence. I have no reason to think our government could not have been involved. I don’t think we’re the good guys. That would be delusional. I think every state involved in the Ukraine/Russia conflict is a bad guy.Well, there's yer proof. Putin said it. Just didn't say US but that's what he meant!
