It is tragic what is happening to Ukrainian citizens/refugees and innocent soldiers forced to fight Russia. But it’s naive to say Ukraine didn’t call for this war. When Ukraine acquiesced to the Western coup that brought it into a pro-NATO orbit (and out of Russia’s orbit), they had to know the possible consequences.
Everything that has happened since (Crimea, the rebellion and so on) has been informing them of the consequences of their choice to serve people like Joe and Hunter Biden over peace with their neighbors.
No, Ukraine was invaded by Czar Pus-tin & his delusion of Czar legacy.
There is much more:
Ukraine became independent again when the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. This started a period of transition to a market economy.
UKRAINE TRIED TO RID ITSELF OF PUS -KIN’S EMBEDDED PUPPET GOV’T.
On 21 November 2013, then-president Viktor Yanukovych suspended implementation of an association agreement with the European Union.
This decision resulted in mass protests by pro-Europeans known as the “Euromaidan” or the “Revolution of Dignity”. After months of such protests, the Ukrainian parliament IMPEACHED Yanukovych on 22 February 2014.
Then, on 22–23 February 2014, Pus-tin started another war when Russian forces invaded Donetsk, Luhansk & Crimea.
Viktor Volodymyrovych Medvedchuk chairman of the pro-Russia political organization: Ukrainian Choice. Komsomol activist under the patronage of the KGB. This fact helped him to avoid going to jail in 1974. Mevedchuk established close relations with Putin, and in 2004 Putin became the godfather of Medvedchuk’s daughter. Also in 2004, Medvedchuk was accused of organizing fraud in the presidential election.
In February 2019, the Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine launched an investigation accusing Medvedchuk of high treason and encroachment on the territorial integrity of Ukraine. [In addition to numerous assets in real estate, pipelines, the oil, gas, coal businesses, as well as media owned by close partners and associates of Medvedchuk in Ukraine, the company of Medvedchuk’s wife, Oksana Marchenko, won a tender for the development of one of the three largest oil fields of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug in Russia. Viktor Medvedchuk admitted that the company was registered to his spouse to avoid the sanctions.]
In 2021, the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) of Ukraine opened criminal proceedings on treason against Medvedchuk and another MP from Medvedchuk’s party, Taras Kozak.
On April 11, 2021, Viktor Medvedchuk and Taras Kozak were charged with high treason accused of: Direct cooperation with the Kremlin: treason to Ukraine through his role cooperating with the KGB, Putin, Russian oil and gas companies.
** Medvedchuk was placed under house arrest.
ANYWAY ENOUGH FOR NOW... :)
