Should’ve kept their word in the Minsk agreements I think you mean that Russia should have kept its word in the Minsk agreements by removing its forces and handing over the border to Ukrainian control as required. Ukraine, on its part, passed the law granting Donbas autonomy and had plans for the required referendum, which Russia blocked. But again, there would have been no need for the Minsk agreements if Russia had not invaded in the first part, something that the pro-Russian crowd always forgets to mention.

You do a good job making up history. Ukraine did exactly the opposite when their legislature passed the Donbass reintegration bill in January 2018, prohibiting any autonomy for Donetsk and Luhansk. This measure buried the Minsk agreement for good.
