Ukrainska Pravda was founded in 2000. It’s the best English-language source I know of for general news specifically about Ukraine.

Generally, I repost stuff here from a variety of other communities and RSS feeds, if it seems relevant. This is one of those. Is that alright with you?

No. The source is crap. There is no domain info. The newspaper was sold in 2021, and it is owned by Goldman Sachs and Soros. On top, they use ai a lot more than they admit. Looks Like the whole thing was written by ai.

I'm going to post a few more "Ukraine doing good in the war" stories, just to irritate you. 🙂

If you have a real reason why this might not be a reliable source, instead of just finding some random claims to use to attack it for random reasons, feel free to say them. "Looks like the whole thing was written by AI" isn't that. A good example of what would be, would be finding a story that's easy to demonstrate is not true, or show a pattern of misleadingly presented stories, or show an analysis from some expert showing indications that they're up to no good. In the meantime I plan to keep using it.

Edit: I ran out of motivation before I found even one story that seemed fully appropriate to post. And, really, it's probably not reasonable for me to slant the balance of the stories in the community just to make a point to one commenter for petty reasons. I'll be keeping an eye out for good ones for the next few days, though.

The link uses a source from an interview from AP. This is the title from that article: AP Interview: Zelenskyy says excluding Ukraine from US-Russia talks about war is ‘very dangerous’ https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-war-trump-talks-ceasefire-00af5f61f1faf41e78a3b4e072c21a14

If mods think pumping out ai generated propaganda is gonna help Lemmy grow you people are digging your own grave.

Lol okey dokey

You are all dying for an American cause and corrupt local politics if you are Ukrainian. And I am not supporting Russia. There is no good guy here. In the past some countries in Latin America got destroyed be the US for being too friendly with Russia. That is what happens between two powers who want control. The Ukraine war is about arm deals, corruption and money laundering. And I have heard that from a Ukrainian.

As for the fault. The trouble started with a coup in 2014. Then internal conflict and then Russia entered differently with war. At every step of the conflict you have the US behind. The coup to put a US puppet, arming them, blowing up Russian infrastructure, and using other countries to block Russian gas in favor of more expensive American gas. Russia has made clear they don’t tolerate NATO in Ukraine. It is as logical as Russia putting military bases in Canada or Mexico.

Sounds to me like Ukraine has made it clear they don’t tolerate assholes coming over and blowing up their stuff. It is logical.
