🤭@amanpour got Kremlin spox Peskov to admit Putin is very angry. Including abt “Russian speakers not able to speak Russian in Ukraine.” This is a lie & more demonstrably false now. We hear victims of Russian bombs in Mariupol & Kharkiv tell their horror stories in Russian daily!

@amanpour I haven't seen the whole @amanpour interview. But it sounds like Peskov is just admitting that anger is Putin's motive for launching a criminal war, for war crimes and crimes against humanity. 🤷🏻♀️

@amanpour 😅Peskov not only admitted Putin's motive is revenge. He even made a Freudian slip, saying "Putin's crazy"
Here's Peskov's list of "Putin's angry w/ Ukrainians who"
-want to be part of NATO
-want to deploy American missiles in Ukr
-forbid speaking Russian
-wear Nazi symbols

@amanpour 😂Closed-captioning picked up Peskov's Freudian slip, calling Putin "crazy" - screen grab ⤵️
I don't know what these Kremlin guys think they're doing, admitting on TV their crimes & demonstrably false pretexts for a criminal war. Maybe just drunk w/ power & impunity for so long

@amanpour 🤨Peskov claimed Putin isn't angry with Ukrainians—"no one in Russia is angry w/ Ukrainians"—then listed all the Ukrainians Putin's angry with. Here's the quote on the Russian language/"Russian World" lie:
Putin's "angry with those in Ukraine who forbid people to speak Russian"
Putin's "angry with those in Ukraine who forbid people to speak Russian"
@amanpour Ukraine is a bilingual country. People are not forbidden to speak Russian. Independent Ukraine elevated Ukrainian as a national language. What's wrong with that? Putin can't understand it; that's his problem.
As Adin notes, it's Russia that bans non-Russian languages, in Crimea.

@amanpour 🤯❗️Peskov's already renamed Ukraine🇺🇦! He says Russia's special military op is "to get rid of Anti-Russia that was created next to our border… Ukraine was formed by Western countries"
This is nuts. Putin invents fake history to destroy a country. Of course he'll keep doing it.

@amanpour There are so many levels of insanity & incoherence in Peskov's interview with @amanpour. Putin made up some BS about Lenin creating Ukraine. Now Peskov claims Western countries created Ukraine—to be "Anti-Russia." These Kremlin criminals can't even pick a Big Lie & stick with it.

@amanpour Peskov admits Russians lied about no invasion, and adds another absurd lie: "Yes, we said that. But it was clear to our military that Ukraine was going to launch an offensive on Donbas."
Now it's back to Donbas?? The Kremlin's just drowning in incoherent lies. Just staggering.
