    They are taking historically Russian areas like Donetsk and Luhansk. The west is doing what it wants because it’s using Ukraine as a proxy war to damage Russia, and is carving Ukraine out for resources. Yanukovych escaping the far-right Banderites that the west supported doesn’t mean he was a puppet either. You’re deeply confused here.

      Imagine being so communist and/or anti-American that you can’t criticize a fascist capitalist state over a liberal capitalist state.

      You’re too smart to make the argument that Russia’s actions are restricted to the areas they allege are majority Russian.

        Kiev is run by far-right neo-Nazis that uphold Stepan Bandera. The Russian Federation isn’t socialist by any means, but it isn’t run by literal neo-Nazis and it isn’t ethnically cleansing anyone.
