“As a result of the coup d’état is when Putin decided to take it back The Crimea. For 8 long yeas Putin tried to get the international community involved in a peaceful resolution of the ongoing hostilities in eastern Ukraine. Not only were they not interested, they were intentionally lying as they schemed to expand the conflict to include ousting Putin.”

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

A lesson in history is not necessary. What counts is this:
The world and Russia itself have recognized Ukraine as an independent nation with full, irrevocable, and absolute sovereignty. Russia signed the recognition on August 28, 1991. Period. It’s THAT simple.

From that very moment, Ukraine can decide to do ANYTHING it wants within its own borders. They can decide to expel Russian puppets, join NATO, join the EU, become far right, far left, become pro China, anti-China, change religion, do revolutions, become a Republic or a kingdom, anything!!
That’s what it means to be independent. Wonderful right?
Russia has NO SAY in anything about the choices Ukraine makes according to the many examples I just cited.
Ukraine can do anything it wants that concerns its own nation. It’s called independence.

Even America made a revolution to finally earn its independence. Right?
Are you against Americas war of independence? I hope not.

So why the hell did Russia meddle in Ukraine’s sovereign business, by invading parts of it in 2014 and 2022!? It’s called blatant imperialism! Lebensraum!
Russia illegally invaded a sovereign country, even though it had signed Ukraines independence. As a result, hundreds of thousands innocent souls killed on both side. It’s warmongering on a demented demonic level.
Kremlin will pay for their crimes and all the deaths they have caused.
You seem fascinated by the word “idiot”. Well, The Kremlin war against Ukriane... THAT is idiocy!

I hope that there is sill 1% of common sense left in your body. If yes, then you’ll concur to what I just said. That Kremlins war against Ukraine is the most miscalculated, unnecessary and idiotic war since WWII.

Can Cuba decide to station Russian missiles on its soil? Did the Monroe Doctrine give the US a say in the affairs of sovereign nations? Did NATO create the country of Kosovo over the protestations of Serbia?
