    Ukraine is Israel(both are already countries that have worldwide recognized sovereignty)

    Donbas is Palestine(groups that want their own independence. The main difference being that libs think Donbas is a Russian psyop so therefore that is invalid. And Palestine are “terrorists” so they invalidate them with that.)

    Ukraine always had the chance to negotiate a real peace. They chose not to.

        no problem at all, it’s more me correcting Zelensky, who is so desperate to feel like they never had any chance at peace. Even his dumb ass forgot about Donbass.

      I mean, the war in Crimea and Donbass is literally a product of Russian FSB and paramilitary groups seizing control of local governments. You can agree or disagree with their motivations, but there’s no reason to engage in historical revisionism.

      It’s kinda hard to deny if you read about a person like Igor Girkin.

      In an interview on 22 January 2015, he explained that the “overwhelming national support for the self-defence” as portrayed by the Russian media was fiction, and a majority of the law enforcement, administration and army were opposed to it.[45][46] Girkin stated that under his command, the rebels “collected” deputies into the chambers, and had to “forcibly drive the deputies to vote [to join Russia]”.

      Girkin arrived in Crimea describing himself as the “Kremlin’s emissary,” and soon after formed the Crimean self-defense forces. His position was above that of self-declared Crimea prime minister Sergei Aksyonov. His main task in March 2014 was the accelerated military training of the newly formed Crimean forces, and selecting the best among them for transfer to the invasion of the Donbas. Girkin personally negotiated and oversaw the withdrawal of Ukrainian forces from Crimea.[50]According to Girkin, he was in charge of the Simferopol Photogrammatic Center’s assault.[49]

      It’s basically the same game plan Russia used when they invaded Georgia in 2008. Find an ethnic group within a country wanting to apply to NATO and create a border conflict by setting up an autonomous zone, take over said local governments, and then flood with military personnel.

The every you time walk on the sidewalk in front of your house the Canadian becomes enraged and decided to cut off what little heating you have for your street tent.
