    Again, ignorance.  They were fighting Russian separatists in the region.  
    The US is in a proxy war in Ukraine and Ukraine is getting destroyed as a result of it along with a lot of death. The people of Donbas had an election to become independent and the US staged a coup. Besides WW2 when was the last time we were involved in a war and the country turned out ok?
    What a fucking shitty thing to say and completely untrue.  It's an insult to all of the Ukrainians during Euromaidan and the Revolution of Dignity that rose up and ousted that corrupt Putin-lackey Yanukoyvich.  He promised the people that he would sign the EU agreement and then at the last minute walked away from it and joined the EEU.  You knew this right?  You knew the people wanted to move West and Yanu moved east.  That's why the people rose up.  

    How about you not get your talking points from Sputnik.  But lest you not realize it, here's a picture of the CIA staging a coup.  They were pretty effective, weren't they? And now the CIA has convinced my people that they actually want to be free and to fight for their lives.  How diabolical.   SMfuckingH.

    “We want them to see It.” Ukraine unveils $4,000 Trembita missile that can reach Moscow

    Built for both strikes and deception, the Trembita light cruise missile is cheap, easy to produce, and requires no foreign funding.

    Two questions for you:

    1. Do you believe the Ukrainian citizens are against this war (think Kiev, Karkhiv, Dnipro, etc, not Donbas)  and would prefer to be a vassal state of Russia?  Or do you think they want to be independent, therefore they are fighting a war?  Remember the Russians have pushed well past Donbas and wanted Kiev.  So don't act like this is just about Donbas.  If it was, the Russians could have just fortified the east exactly like they did Crimea.  

    2. Why do you think that a region in a country can just vote to make themselves independent?  Would we allow that to happen?  Would Canada allow Quebec to break-away?  In what world do you live in where that could happen?  Yes Donbas is primarily Russian speaking, but that was because of the massive emigration over the past 30 years.  If they want to be Russian, go back to Russia.  Ukraine should not ever just let them secede, and then take up arms against Kiev.

    It's just amazing how you can think this way without drawing any comparatives to the rest of the West and how it/we would react to these very situations.  I might remind you that no...we would not let a region just secede.  Let me know if you need the exact situation where that was attempted. 
    It's truly amazing how you fall right in line with the war mongering US government and the war hawks. Pro tip: Anytime the US is funding any type of war it is never for a good reason. We are getting these poor Ukrainians slaughtered. Don't kid yourself. We are solely there to drain Ukraine of their rare earth minerals and rebuild Ukraine with American companies. Always follow the $$$. Ukraine is not even going to hold a election......gee I wonder why. Also the people do not want to fight as they know whats going on. https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2025/1/23/why-is-ukraine-struggling-to-mobilise-its-citizens-to-fight

    I'm Ukrainian.  My father was born in the Ukraine.  My proper last name is Rosul.  My father was Mykola Uilyam Rosul.  

    You don't have a fucking clue about how Ukrainians think and feel about independence.  Don't patronize us about Ukrainians being slaughtered. Half of my family was lost in Holodomor, murdered by the Soviets in Moscow.  

    You don't give a shit about Ukrainians.  If you did, you'd understand why they can never be subjugated by the Russians again.  They can end the war and cede territory for security guarantees, and that's what will happen.  But they will not and cannot rollover.

    I'm 2nd gen Ukranian-American. I too have had relatives killed for no reason other than they were Jewish or Ukranian or both over the last 150+ years.

    You are correct on all points. This person has no clue and is just parroting moscow talking points. Which are also being parroted from inside the WH.

    Ukraine provoked Russia into the war:

    Steve Witkoff, US special envoy to the Middle East, suggests that Russia's invasion of Ukraine was provoked and reacts to Russian State media saying Trump is 'very aligned with Putin.'

    “Ukraine isn’t as the Russian ambassador said, a ‘project.’ It has a longer history than Russia. It has been a member of the UN longer than Russia. It has a language, identity & its own aspirations”

    One of Trump's most repeated lies about Ukraine is his claim that Europe has provided only $100 billion in aid, while the U.S. has given $350 billion. This is an outright lie.

    unanimous vote in parliament affirming legitimacy of president zelensky’s mandate, unconstitutionality of elections because of ongoing russian invasion and calling for immediate elections after war is over.

    The GOP narrative that "let's be clear if trump had been president this war never would have started" is really odd. They are all repeating it every chance they get.

    That fuckface Markwayne Mullins kept saying that on the Sunday shows and I was about ready to throw the TV out the window.

    The effort this admin goes to to fawn over this orange fuckhead is sickening.

    NEW: Russia formally rejects any proposal for a ceasefire that doesn’t include the complete capitulation of Ukraine and the west.

    Russian officials also requested Ukrainian troops withdraw from territory currently in Ukrainian control as a “compromise”.

    The reduction of the Ukrainian military to 100,000 or less and a complete abandonment of NATO membership are also requested.

    BREAKING: The Trump administration and the Ukrainian government have reached a deal designed to allow the U.S. to tap some of Ukraine's immense mineral wealth and to spur post-war development in the country, two sources close to the Ukrainian government told Axios.

    REPORTER: With Ukraine and this mineral deal, what does Ukraine get in return, mister president?

    TRUMP: $350 Billion dollars and lots of equipment and military equipment and the right to fight on and, originally, the right to fight.

    I agree to an extent.  If we are going to continue providing military support then fine.  We know Trump is all about what's in it for him.  Expect nothing less from a mob boss.  My focus is Ukraine maintaining it independence.
