What is the West’s problem with a Russian vaccine that has been proven effective. They are fighting a vaccine, not a virus. The Russian Sputnik-V vaccine is effective 91% of the time, but Western countries are trying to prove otherwise. The vaccination has already caused a stir around the world, and many European countries have already ordered a batch for testing. However, while some are trying to buy a vaccine, others are unleashing an information war against it.
Summary
With Russia’s help, it became possible to achieve a drastic reduction in bombing intensity in eastern Ukraine, and to generally maintain a ceasefire between the parties of the local Ukrainian conflict.
Disproof
A recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narrative about the war in Ukraine, presenting it as a “civil war” in Donbas.
The war in eastern Ukraine is not a "local conflict" but a well-documented act of aggression by Russian armed forces, ongoing since February 2014.
The European Union stated in July 2014 that:
"arms and fighters continue flowing into Ukraine from the Russian Federation".
At the NATO Summit in Wales in September 2014, NATO leaders condemned in the strongest terms Russia’s military intervention in Ukraine and demanded Russia to stop and withdraw its forces from Ukraine and from the country’s border. NATO leaders also demanded Russia comply with international law and its international obligations and responsibilities; refrain from aggressive actions against Ukraine; halt the flow of weapons, equipment, people and money across the border to the separatists; and stop fomenting tension along and across the Ukrainian border.
In 2015, Russian President Vladimir Putin admitted Russia's military presence in Ukraine.
