“The situation in the world is changing dynamically and the outlines of a multipolar world order are taking shape. An increasing number of countries and peoples are choosing a path of free and sovereign development based on their own distinct identity, traditions and values.”
It is just too bad horrendous that Putin is unable to reason that Ukraine is a sovereign nation, not a toy to invade and destroy.
Maybe you apply that comment to the Obama regime in 2014 when we setoff a coup that lead to a democratically-elected President being thrown out office illegally and caused a civil war.
Coups have consequences. In this case, those in Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk wanted independence or some level of autonomy.
You just can't seem to grasp reality -- that what is happening in Ukraine is the conclusion of civil war we helped start.
Russia only wanted a guarantee that Ukraine wouldn't join NATO and would remain neutral and the Minsk Agreement, which would have granted US state-like autonomy to Donetsk and Lugansk, when this started.
