Do You Believe What Scott Ritter Says?

Scott Ritter says that the US has only ever wanted to get rid of Putin, and this is only that. Do you agree or disagree that that sounds like a reasonable take? That the US isn't concerned about Ukraine at all. It's only about getting rid of Putin. His claim is that Boris Yeltsin was basically a Western puppet. True or false? Was Putin's predecessor, Boris Yelts in the bag for the West? Your comments are all over the place. I'm seeing truths, I'm seeing yeses and noes. So it might have been somewhere in between. But he was still the zone person who knows.
