BBC have to close comments on NATO summit due to overwhelming support for Russia

The biased BBC editor then picks a selection  of comments with the most anti-russian comment first, despite it only getting 19 likes!
Then chooses some of the dumbest comments, including one that appears to think "Russia supports the coup in Ukraine" and "its naive to believe the west are to blame for the war".
All this in spite of the USA openly funding and supporting the illegal government that the referendums in Crimea, and Eastern Ukraine proved 90%+ of those respective populations didn't want and so sought independence from Kiev!
Propaganda by Western media and governments then went in to overdrive and they got labelled pro-russian separatist regions and fighters, rather than anti-Kiev!

    Russia has lost it's respect and trust in the world. It will take decades to get it back, the cost to it is enormous. What on earth do they think that they are doing.

    At the moment there are civilians being murdered by soldiers on all sides in all conflicts. I would like to see the real numbers, but i am a civilian thus am just another zero as are we all. You can see that the way our Governments stiff us all the time ignoring the will of the people who pay their inflated wages. 
    Keep your kids from joining the services is all we can do.

    Only problem with the West is they think Democracy is the Best way of life

    Democracy is a Culture its not measurably best by anyway, afterall non-democratic countries like China dong better than many

    Particularly Middle-East is not used to Democracy but to Dictatorship.If you destabilize a dictator in Middle east, all we will get is Terrorism. We took out Saddam, Now Iraq is a terrorist land

    West is an easy scapegoat isn't it?

    Fighting in Middle East and Ukraine is allegedly the fault of the West. It's not perhaps the people shooting each other?

    The West seem to be the only people who show concern for atrocities around the world. Do the Russians or Chinese, or most middle eastern countries care for example? I don't think so.

    Russians could have stopped Assad but did they? No.

    Let there be talks over Ukraine and a peace settlement. There is plenty of blame to go around. More trade, not sanctions, and increased prosperity will go a long way towards reducing international tensions

    The west should keep its bloody nose out. It has already made a mess of the middle east. Then supported the 'rebels' in Syria - probably with covert military supplies. Now Cameron and Co.want to to fight IS as well. Western military going to get shot at by their own weapons?

    I see a lot of people on here want to make a decision on behalf of the Ukrainians that they be happy to be a "buffer zone" for their Russian neighbours. That really is very good of you to determine what the Ukrainian geopolitical role should be, but shouldn't they make that decision for themselves? Surely they would rather want to be a normal, prosperous, democratic state like the rest of Europe.

    Why is Russia involved in any negotiations? Wasn't it just yesterday that Putin said that Russia was not party to the conflict in any way? It's just coincidence that thousands of Russian troops go on holiday in a war zone. That guy changes his mind more than the wind switches direction.

    Let's exit NATO. This entangling alliance is likely to see us in conflicts from Ukraine to Iraq.

    And, we need to exit the EU, which had a hand in instigating the current situation in Ukraine, just as we need to exit NATO, whose lead member instigated the current situation in Iraq.

    We need to focus on our own borders, not borders of distant foreigners. It's a defence not a world-police force.

    I find it naive to say the West started this. Russia would always support the coup in Ukraine due to its "strategic interests", so it was clear what would happen if we stood and watched.

    You can argue about the extent of our involvement, but you can't defend Russia's actions - going in and increasing it's territory by force is like something out of the 1800's - it's just not acceptable today.

    To the world leaders meeting in Wales... We have no interest in your war, pack your bags, go home and leave us all in peace.
    Yours sincerely, the good people of the world.

    If the EU was worth a pinch of salt they would stop France from selling Russia those two new helicopter carriers in these circumstances.

    Typical of the EU and NATO - getting hot under the collar and one of the members is providing the other side with aircraft carriers! you could not make it up!

    Useless bureaucrats in Brussells.

    Ordinary people are sick of all this meddling and war-mongering!

    NATO expanding east, stirring trouble in a direct neighbour of Russia and expect Russia not to try and defend their strategic interests!? Our "leaders" truly treat us like children if they think people can't see through this. Provoking Russia like this is madness. If Russia started manipulating and destabilising Mexico, what do you think the US would do!?

    Let's not forget that the EU caused this mess by forcing the Ukranian people to pick sides and split the country. Now NATO are reinforcing this split. In the end it's always the people that suffer while the politicians play their games!
