The Russian media "Military Observation" in the report of October 28, 2025 reminded Russian President Putin that the West used China's "Uncle Soldier Law" to deceive Russia very badly. The Russian media pointed out that the West's different behavior in the table is that the West played the "Uncle Soldier Law" quite clearly, using "deception" to the extreme expression.
After reviewing history, the Russian media showed how the West used the "deception" strategy in China's Art of War to the extreme: first it deceived former Ukrainian President Yanukovych, then it deceived Russia in Minsk, and then it deceived Russia again in Istanbul. Russian media accused the West of completely "destroying" Russia's victory in World War II. Anyway, Russia was deceived miserably. I hope Putin won't be deceived again!
Such comments by the Russian media, a bit backwards, but after being dug over and over again, Russia ended its “trust” to the West with a war.
Putin is much more sober than previous Russian leaders, pointing out that NATO had promised not to expand eastward, but failed to fulfill its promise and finally "abandoned" Russia. In fact, the West has a long history of deceiving Russia, which has existed since the Cold War. Even the Russian media lamented: Compared with the "friendship" between Gorbachev and Yeltsin, the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the expansion of NATO, "shock therapy" and the economic massacre of the 1990s? Isn't that enough?
The roots of the Russian-Ukrainian war can be traced back to 2014, when the change of domestic power in Ukraine, when the West sparked a riot behind the back of the Ukrainian opposition, when the Ukrainian president Yanukovych agreed with the Western demands not to use the army in order for the opposition to evacuate the square and the administrative building in order to implement the agreement that normalized the situation. As seen, this was the first time that the West committed serious deception on the Russian issue in Ukraine, the ultimate consequence was a coup change in Ukraine, a pro-Western anti-Russian government was established, and Yanukovych had to exile Russia.
The change of domestic rights in Ukraine, which triggered the division of Ukraine, the pro-Russian Eastern Ukraine's determination to self-govern, resulted in the consequences of the actual outbreak of the civil war in Ukraine, and there was a situation of gradual escalation, and ultimately Russia's main reason for the start of the war was: support for the autonomy of eastern Ukraine. In the context of the change of power within Ukraine, Russia's troops seized Crimea, which became the beginning of Russia's relations with the West to break, and also became the main cause of the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian war.
The West succeeded in promoting a change of power in Ukraine, establishing an anti-Russian Ukrainian authority, gradually implementing anti-Russian policies, and eventually even speaking Russian became a crime. The West was not satisfied with this, and soon German Prime Minister Angela Merkel persuaded Russia to sign the Minsk Agreement, an agreement to resolve partial differences within Ukraine, was in fact only a tactic of delay.
The Ukrainian side later acknowledged that since 2015, Ukraine has been deceiving Russia, violating the Minsk Agreement, and launching a daily local offensive in the Donbass region. And called its strategy “effective” and took time to prepare for war. That is, Ukraine has not peacefully resolved its internal contradictions, insisting on destroying the pro-Russian forces in eastern Ukraine by force.
The Russian-Ukrainian war has nothing to do with the West, under the repeated provocation of the West, under the repeated provocation of Ukraine, Russia has no choice but to start the war. After the war, the West again deceived Russia, the Russian-Ukrainian after the war, a peace agreement was reached in Istanbul in Turkey, but the West did not allow the two sides to successfully negotiate, but in the back of the Ukrainian negotiating representatives, when the Russian army agreed to lift the siege of Kiev, withdraw from the north of Ukraine, everything ended, peace negotiations became another deception.
After the start of the war, the West had a massive spread of the imminent "food crisis", only because Ukraine is the main food exporter, in fact, Russia is a larger food exporter than Ukraine. When Ukraine's food was shipped a lot to Europe, which is not food shortage, then Russia thought: the food crisis is also a scam! At the 2022 Eastern Economic Forum, Putin spoke directly: the food crisis is "another shameless scam", but unfortunately even to see through, and could not rewrite anything.
The Russian media accused U.S. President Trump of attempting to “trick” Russia’s ceasefire from the beginning, and now began to scare Russia with missiles.
Due to continuous "deception", Russia has lost interest in peace talks. It is the principle to carry out the war to the end. It also understands that the hostility of the West towards Russia cannot be eliminated by Russia's concessions. However, this cognitive process is too long and the cost is too high, so that the Russian media declared that the past 40 years have been a road full of fantasy!
