Except that’s not what happened, and this “friend” is no friend at all to anyone.
Ask yourself, if the “revolutionaries” were so bad, why did this “friend” not intervene when their man, Poroshenko, was the President. He was a bad dude. Instead, he invades when he’s voted out of office, this “friend” “intervenes” against his duly elected successor, who is busy negotiating for peace in the East. With “friends” like that, who needs enemas.
