Not at all, but judging from the amount of effort put into starting a war with Russia around the same time I find it more likely that the whole thing was made up.

US intelligence, Dutch intelligence, UK intelligence, German intelligence, who cares? They're all in the same boat, and it's sinking fast.

Reality check: The Russian economy completely depends on gas and middle class salary is 200 euro (said Putin). So who is sinking here?

At the same time they colonized Crimea, fought a war with Georgia. Who is starting wars here?

You might not like intelligence work, but that's another story.

Well, one could say those who befriended and armed their neighbourhood states like Georgia to use them against them, or helped install Nazi sympathisers toppling the legitimate government in Ukraine?
