Russia is not the only country with grievances about Ukraine. Hungary and Romania also accuse the country of persecuting ethnic groups living in Ukraine and now forcibly conscripting them into military service. Now the Council of Europe’s Venice Commission will investigate Ukraine for violations of minority rights.

Transnistria is part of Moldova, not Russia’s to defend.
Transnistria is similar to Donbas, and Russia will protect them. If things escalate maybe Russia will hit Warsaw with a tactical nuke as a warning to the US to back off. I will be here posting on FR ahh those stupid Poles, I tried to warn them.
If by “reputable sources” you mean deep state/Democrat party propaganda organs like the corporate media, no it was not them. But, of course you were determined not to believe the Ukes could possibly be doing anything wrong to begin with. So spare me the intellectual dishonesty of whining about sources you aren’t going to be believe no matter what anyway.
You made up something silly and just can’t admit it and let it go.
How does one make the image in 78 visible? I single clik or double click these little squares and nothing ever changes.
It must be one of your extensions interfering, try opening it in incognito.
Ukraine is invaded and has a draft. Pro-Kremlin traitors in Hungary scream in KGB
Goes on to murder thousands of ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine
Do you mean Russian colonists and Russian soldiers fighting to conquer Ukraine? They are legitimate targets in a war.
and build over 30 bio weapons labs
Don't confuse Ukraine with the 30 day supply of thorazine on your desk. The biolabs in the former USSR were created by the USSR. The US has been funding civilian use of these under the Nunn-Lugar act. There are no bio-weapons that would affect Russians, but not Ukranians.
and threatens NATO expansion. The only expansion is that of Russia as the KGB leadership tries to rebuild the USSR. Hence the invasion of Ukraine. Ukraine could not and cannot join NATO. They had a border dispute. And all member of NATO would have to accept them. Stop mainlining communist propaganda.
Oh there you go confusing us with the facts
Actually there was an unsuccessful coup years earlier in 2004 when Putin, without any provocation or even a vague justification, tried to assassinate Yuschenko. He wanted Yanukovych to win an uncontested election.
For comparison, imagine Chicom putting a nerve agent in GHW Bush’s tea to give Clinton a free run at the White House. Who here wouldn’t have considered it an act of War.
Then in 2008 Russia invaded Georgia and Poland warned Ukraine that the blueprint was being developed to invade Ukraine afterwards on similar lines.
Then in 2013 Putin attempted yet another colour revolution in Ukraine, first by blackmailing Azarov and Yanukovych into delaying the EU trade negotiations (overwhelmingly approved by the Rada as well as the overall citizenship of Ukraine) while flooding the Donbas with “settlers” and “separatists”.
And in December 2013, Yanukovych signed a “deal” with Russia instead without discussing it with anyone in the Rada. This “deal” put Russia effectively in charge of Ukraine’s finances and opened the door for Russia to pull the plug on Ukrainian independence.
Maidan wasn’t a coup by Ukraine. It was a Ukrainian watershed reaction to a coup instigated by Putin and enabled by Yanukovych.
Three times Russia had attempted a hostile takeover of Ukraine without any provocation. The third time was the final straw, Ukraine retaliated.
You will swallow any lie to protect your Neocon project.
Bizarre.
Reality.
I put the word coup in quotes for a reason. It wasn’t a coup.
You have zero proof that the Hungarian minority is being targeted.
Provide any proof if that is your claim
We’ve already been through this. Feel free to read the complaints of both the Hungarian and Romanian governments to Ukraine doing exactly this with their minorities. There is plenty of evidence gathered to support those accusations.
