Why are Russians in Ukraine protesting the Ukrainian government and rebelling? This is a LOT like the Jihadis entering Chechnya and rebelling against Moscow to form their own breakaway republic. Will the Ukrainians bring in the Grad MRLs?
I had the same problem with, “Putin demands Ukraine remove Ukrainian troops from western Ukraine.”
On the other hand, the Ukraine was a part of the Soviet Union for almost a century. The soviets shipped out Tatars and moved-in Russians. Russians have lived there for a long time.
It’s a tough nut, but we should be able to discuss it here without resident zealots going all DU. (Not you.)
