So far I’ve been thoroughly unimpressed with these Pro-Russian separatists. I’m not sure why Ukraine wants them in their country. I know it has more to do with land and resources.
Don’t you think it might have something to do with people who live there who are loyal to the Ukraine, and wish things to remain as they are?
I’m not convinced we’re getting an accurate picture of what the broad body of people think in that region. Already we’re hearing of arrests of people who spoke out again breaking away.
Seems to me the folks who wanted to remain a part of the Ukraine had fairly good reason why not to express their views.
