    I am only interested in what Russia has said about their trustworthiness. Can one trust what a country says? I mean not just Putin, but politics in general. Commented Mar 18, 2022 at 10:12

    Note to close voters, I don't see why you're voting to close. This question is asking what Putin has said, which is answerable. It's not asking what he thinks, what he will do, or what he will say, it's asking what he has already said, which is on topic. Commented Mar 18, 2022 at 19:41

    This question has two major flaws: (1) even though Russia is not considered trustworthy by nearly anyone on earth, they consider themselves to be trustworthy, and in particular they pretend they did not breach the Budapest Memorandum - which means that Russia won't publicly discuss why it should be trusted, as they see no reason for any doubts about their sincerity; (2) Ukraine does not trust Russia. The OP makes invalid assumptions. Commented Mar 20, 2022 at 2:49

    @RogerVadim "What has Russia said" and "Is Russia correct that they can be trusted" are two different questions. We can't answer the latter (which you point out), but OP's question is only the former. Commented Mar 21, 2022 at 10:28

    @RogerVadim "I am only interested in what Russia has said about their trustworthiness" does not include whether the alleged statements are believed to be true, nor what your specific definition of a trustworthiness is. Commented Mar 21, 2022 at 12:15
