Putin's lie that he invaded Ukraine because its gov't is comprised of Nazis is too absurd to stick, so now top propagandists are moving on to the new fairytale: that Ukraine and NATO were plotting to start a nuclear war against Russia in March and Putin prevented it by invading.

This very much demonstrates that he’s still emotionally attached to the nuclear threat option.

And given what we've heard so far, his justifications require no basis in reality. Checkmate.

Putin and people in their right mind no longer seem to have anything in common.
