    Russian propaganda right here:

    In February, Russia invaded Ukraine as a response to almost eight years of killing and criminal destruction in the Russian-speaking region of Donbass on their border.

    Watch out, this one is really well done.

      Yeah I saw that and it immediately discredited the rest of the article. You can’t cry about US imperialism while handwaving Russian imperialism.

        He doesn’t, if you had read the rest.

        Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is wanton and inexcusable. It is a crime to invade a sovereign country. There are no ‘buts’ – except one.
