Of course, your implication is that Russia is supporting the “language of democracy and self-determination.” Laughable on its face.
The Maidan lacks legitimacy even in Lvov, which is not exactly a pro-Russian bastion. Protesters in Western Ukraine seized the state prosecutor’s office and forced his resignation. You are blind to what is going on. Ukraine is run by a regime without democratic legitimacy in ALL sections of the country. This is a fact.
