Can these “journalists” report on the entire history of Ukraine? I mean, who influenced their election in 2014? Who threatened to withhold aid if a certain investigator of Burisma wasn’t fire? Who has been jonesing for war for the better part of two decades (left, Nuland, et al)?
Go back and count how many times Donbas has changed hands in the last 120 years, 15 maybe 20. It’s like climate change fanatics who insist, out of all the possible variations seen, this current situation is the best of all possible worlds. So perfect it’s worth risking blowing up the world over.
Here's all you need to know: at no time did Ukraine ever threaten or invade Russia.
That makes Ukraine right and Russia wrong, period.
Yes, the history is very messy. There really wasn’t a Russia or Ukraine until the 1300s. The shape and size of royal dominions changed constantly. They only just threw off the Mongol yoke before shaping their own destinies.
