Ukraine should have a military, you’d think. So instead of whining for help from other countries, why don’t they use their military to protect western Ukraine? I’m on the outside, looking at this as evolving history. Russia is protecting its interests, Ukraine couldn’t stop from being taken over by CIA-inspired thugs burning tires. I’d feel much safer living in Russian-controlled territories.

It's about one-tenth of the RF's; Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons in return for a guarantee of its territorial integrity from US and RF.

“I’d feel much safer living in Russian-controlled territories.”

The way you spout off Putin’s thuggish false propaganda it looks like you must already be living “in Russian-controlled territories” as one of Putin’s propagandists.

There are an abundance of ethnic Russian Ukrainian citizens who want absolutely nothing to do with the Putin dictatorship and Russian totalitarian governments. That includes most of Ukraine’s present leadershoip whose native born language and culture are Russian and not Ukrainian.
