🙃 The U.S. National Intelligence believes Russia is not planning to invade Europe Director Tulsi Gabbard said that reports about such plans are “lies and propaganda.” She made the statement while commenting on a Reuters publication that cited data from the U.S. intelligence community. Tulsi Gabbard is known for her openly expressed sympathies toward Russia and her support for conspiracy theories. According to Gabbard, Russia is instead trying to avoid a direct conflict with NATO. She accused the media and their sources of attempting to scare the public and sabotage Donald Trump’s efforts to resolve the war. Gabbard claims that this “false narrative” benefits those who want escalation and the direct involvement of the United States in a war with Russia. Against this backdrop, Moscow continues to insist on its own terms. Putin has made it clear that he will not end the war until his maximalist demands are met.
