“None of this would be happening if Putin had not invaded Crimea,”
History must not be your thingy, eh?
If you recall, the coup in Kiev, and the proclamations to wipe out Russians, and Russian culture in Ukraine came BEFORE Crimea.
The genocidal war criminal KGB Putin invaded Ukraine unprovoked, which he planned for years, and which his traitorous puppet Yanukovich helped him do by weakeneing the Ukrainian defenses in Crimea and leaving it defenseless on purpose.
You continue to repeat the same falsehood. There was never any proclamation to wipe out Russians or Russian culture. Indeed, in the repetition, the libels become ever more outrageous. There was a law passed in the Rada, but which was never signed off on by the then interim president, that would have repealed the prior government’s decision to make Russian an official language. There was never anything that even suggested that the Russian language or culture would be suppressed. That is the very lie that Putin has used repeatedly to create conflict in the east. You should be ashamed of yourself.
