“If Russia take over Ukraine, are they conquering them or liberating them?”
Well, Crimea was part of Russia for longer than the U.S. was an independent country. Under Khrushchev the USSR gave Crimea to the Ukraine in violation of the constitution of the USSR. ( IE, a Ukrainian Premier did an executive order that transferred Crimea to his “State/province.” It would be like Joe giving Maryland to Deleware (which he won’t because it reduces the number of Dem Senators.))
There are a high percentage of Russians in the Eastern Ukrainian provinces. Dribbling Joe will not honor the Clinton defense agreement. Russian would take them “For the safety of the Russian population.”
Crimea was theirs. They would not liberate, but seize rather than conquer.
Oops. To be clear, they would take back Crimea which was theirs, but would be seizing eastern Ukraine because Russians live there.Not conquest, but not liberation. (The Sudatenland.) Anything to the west would be war and conquest.
When the Ukraine “Euro-Maidan protests” started, caww did the most incredible research, there was one (or maybe 2?) long threads. Incredible research. Soros, McCain, Victoria Nuland (EU something or other rep??) were involved; people in Ukraine were paid to “protest”, FF deaths from supposed Russain snipers were Svoboda party mil wing Pravi Sector, total Neo Nazis. The Ukes were treating the Russian speakers terribly before this, making them second class citizens etc.
Cqww knows everything.
