Catherine the Great.... this is apparently Russian for a long time. Why are we meddling in Russia .....
The west has, once again, started civil war and once again is proving completely unable to control and win it. So we resort to whining ....
The unrest started in Kiev with western backed militants upset they lost an election.
I believe their argument is that Yanukovych and his party deceived the electorate.
Well, most of Poland was also Russian since Catherine the Great. Why should we care if Russia takes back what was theirs for a century and a half? /sarc
And that’s not even including the 50 years Poland, Lithuania and a dozen other countries spent under Soviet domination, and before that as unwilling territories of the Russian Empire.
