Putin is Scared! Russia Demands 'Security Guarantees'. 26 Countries to Send Troops - The Russian Dude



Note: This video was published prior to the Russian drone attack on Poland.

Putin is once again trying to twist the meaning of “peace” and “security.” In the Kremlin’s version, it means stripping Ukraine of sovereignty, shrinking its army, and leaving it wide open for the next invasion. While the West debates real guarantees for Kyiv, Moscow claims Russia itself needs “security guarantees,” painting Ukraine’s independence as a threat. This propaganda play comes as 26 nations pledge to send troops and weapons to protect Ukraine, forces that Putin now calls “legitimate targets.” The absurdity couldn’t be clearer—only Russia is allowed guarantees, never the country it invaded.

This video breaks down the Kremlin’s warped demands: banning Ukraine from NATO, capping its military, and forcing it into permanent weakness. We’ll explore how NATO expansion fuels Putin’s paranoia, why Europe scrambles to respond as Trump wavers, and how Macron’s pledge of 26-nation reassurance forces was instantly dismissed by Moscow. From Alaska summits to Paris meetings, the stage is set for a clash between Russia’s blueprint for domination and Ukraine’s fight for survival.

At the heart of it all is one truth: Putin’s “security guarantees” are not about peace—they’re about buying time for future invasions. As Russia rejects ceasefires, demands to be Ukraine’s guarantor, and keeps shelling cities, the world faces a choice. Accept Moscow’s twisted terms and watch Ukraine’s sovereignty die, or stand firm and ensure Russia never confuses domination with security again.
