The thing with Twitter is some things are smashed together with others. I don't know Stew Peters, but Lara Logan is unhinged. When I saw that, it made me curious. Oh, and isn't there a friend of Cawthorn's who appeared on Stew Peters - just read that here on DU a little bit ago.

Steve Herman has been with Voice of America for a long time. I'm not sure that is an absolute "vouch" for him, but he's extremely well-experienced reporting throughout the world, so I'd guess is extremely well connected. That said, Trump tried to all but destroy VOA, so I suppose it is not impossible to have some lingering concerns.

I don't do FB, so not sure what Lara Logan has to do with this report. She is insane.

I'm guessing he must read Ukrainian, or he has a reliable translator? So many questions about this.
Why has no one else posted this?

Doesn't Pres. Zelensky send out videos that are translated into English?
I thought he did that in order to prevent misunderstandings.

Pretty hard to tell when one reads no Cyrillic languages. But, yes, no English language sources that I could find are reporting this.

Georgia and someplace else.

My understanding is that they weren't pushing aggressively enough for boycotts, sanctions, etc. against Russia, and agitating aggressively for support for Ukaine in their assigned countries.
