“Russia, from day one, said they only want eastern Ukraine.”
Russia also said they wanted to “demilitarize” Ukraine, which doesn’t happen just seizing eastern Ukraine. And they also invaded in an attempted blitz to capture the capitol, which you do when you want to depose a government, not just capture the eastern provinces. So only a fool takes Russia at its word. You can choose to if you like, but I decline.
“Poland will get western Ukraine.”
LOLOLOL, keep dreaming.
