Indeed, American involvement is tangentially at best. It is fascinating that The EU and Germany/France somehow get ignored and pro-Russian propaganda attack the unrelated United States instead.
Is it because the US is a big easy target? And that it is far harder to make the EU the evil monster, because they haven't started any wars lately?
I see the blame piled on America as a literal distraction. Russia know they would lose the argument if they try to make the mud stick on EU. America has done many bad things, and still do them to this day, and that's why they are now being accused of
what they didn't do. But you should not charge a criminal for a crime he didn't actually commit, that's just not how it works.
