As long s this is seen as a “Freedom” issue the movements and counter-movents over Ukraine and on the International Stage won't be understood.
Consider just one example...:
Do you really think Slavyansk was under sustained bombing for THREE MONTHS for Freedom? ...... ‘ Burisma Holdings’, Ukraines No. 1 producer of natural gas now under Joe Biden’s son “Hunter” had Ukraine troops and others dodging bullet's WHILE installing hydraulic fracturing equipment.
Biden’s Son was sent assist US corporations into the resource game via joint ventures, along with the Ukraines new 'finance minister Natalie Jaresko', from the US and formerly an official with the State Dept funneling the 5 Billion Nuland bragged about... .....watch carefully as the ‘corporate shark feeding’ continues.... It has nothing to do with democracy and has little if anything to do with Ukrainians who are currently being postured for horrendous 'austerity' measures they will have nothing to say about.
You’re right, as long as Russia makes it a geopolitical, folks like you will never understand ‘freedom’, and that people are willing to die for it.
Ukraine is very rich in natural resources, which is why Russia can’t live without it. If US corporations want to help Ukraine develop it’s personal energy reserves, I’m all for it.
It’s a geopolitical game for Russia, they need Crimea and they need Ukraine.
The biggest travesty is that folks like you defend a geopolitical game over people’s freedoms. Such a depraved mindset.
