Western propaganda lies not only about this, corruption in the EU reaches incredible proportions, censorship, violations of freedom of speech, but Putin is always to blame.

Nobody here even mentioned Putin, and you conspicuously didn't cite additional sources for your imperative claims. It's not just baseless, it's also a non-sequitur in the context of the article.

You sound like a deeply insecure and paranoid individual, perhaps distancing yourself from politics would be healthy?

the one that insults the other first loses the argument.

Quite the opposite. The last person to present credible evidence is often the only person telling the truth.

If you can forever prove the West wrong, don't keep us waiting.

could be but you brought no new information besides a low level personal insult so the person you insulted added more to the discussion than you

They would have, if they remembered to cite their sources. Because they didn't, their original comment stands as logical fallacy, ad-hominem.

You're welcome to correct their error.

I do not want to make the same mistake as you, turning discussions into personal attacks (aka ad-hominem), but you were the only one using ad-hominem in this discussion, if you felt attacked because OP said that western leaders use Putin as a scapegoat, I think that is totally on you.

Okay. I'm still waiting for a substantiation of the original claim, either from you or the OP.
