    In the EU parliament, Farage lambasted the EU arrogance of east european expansion. Perhaps you have forgotten the Reagan / Gorbachev agreements on encroachment?
    Try listening to the whole speech before scoffing and shove your personal bias to one side. What he said was spot on.
    He isn't defending Putin, but pointed out that the West did its part in this.

    Do you ever read what you are replying to? Both you and the ‘man’ himself held Farage up as someone with great political insight and wisdom because in 2014 it is suggested that he was the first person to predict war in Ukraine. I’m just reminding you that, seeing as the opening shots were fired - over Crimea - in February of that year it wasn’t enormously difficult. N stands for Nigel, not Nostradamus.
