“A while back there was a Minsk agreement in which Ukraine gave up these regions — the Donbas area.”

No. The Minsk agreements were all clear that the separatists would have local autonomy but that Ukraine would have control over ALL international borders - meaning the separatist regions would be firmly in Ukrainian territory.

“But, apparently BeijingBiden convinced his favorite money launderer (Zelynskyy) that a war was a better option.”

Zelensky was not president in 2015 when the separatists violated the agreements by taking the Donetsk airport in battle. Zelensky became president FOUR YEARS LATER. That’s 3 years after Biden left office as VP.

For all those idiots out there who think the Ukrainians are the real warmongers I have a simple question: Why didn’t the Ukrainians wage total war on the separatists between 2015 and 2022? Why didn’t they call up their entire army, go for complete mobilization, instead of fighting a barely there sitzkrieg for 8 years?

I just don’t understand what it is about this war that has made so many Freepers stupid. I just don’t get it.

Why? Russia has backed them since before their Georgian invasion.
