    I like the video of Dimitri Peskov on Irish TV, swearing that some thing which seems highly unlikely is true. The host then asks him about the week before, when he assured the exact same host on the exact same program that Russia wasn’t planning to invade Ukraine at all, and this whole thing was absurd Western propaganda that they were even planning to attack Ukraine. And then, a few days later, they invaded Ukraine. “So you’re clearly a liar,” the host says more or less, “So why should we believe you now?” And there’s a lot of insistence and assurances that the West is the bad guys, from Peskov, but nothing substantive that is an answer to that pretty sensible question.
