      Even Prigozhin said that the supposed genocide in Donbas is 100% a Russian propaganda fabrication. Stop parroting that bullshit.

        Nobody said there was a genocide as far as I know, but there were many ethnic cleansing attempts.

        On the contrary calling Russia activities “genocide” was very common. Programmed morons.

            By a Ukrainian Nazi army. Are you not aware of this? This is basic stuff you need to know before commenting.

              No such law was ever passed. You might be missing some details such as the Ukrainian army largely operating in Russian.

                  And that law forbids people from speaking Russian… how?

                  Ukraine is in full compliance with the ECRML. Russia isn’t even a signatory.

                    Love how liberals act really fucking smart 99% of the time and suddenly get really fucking stupid as soon as their shit is called on.

                    How about a friendly game of whataboutism? What about if the US right wing succeeded in making English the official language of the United States? What would happen to all the people who speak Spanish primarily?

                    (Psst… are we not talking about the killings then? All the pogroms and murders sure seem to have gotten left on the wayside of this conversation.)

          Oh there’s plenty of other reasons to impeach Trump. Why would he even be impeached over that, though. I don’t really follow US news, it’s silly over there.

            His first impeachment was over him extracting personal political benefit from sending weapons to Ukraine that they were using to carry out their ethnic cleansing

            If the ethnic cleansing were 100% fabricated by Russian propaganda then the Hillary Cliintons of the USA are Putin bots.

              You are aware that Russia already invaded in 2014? That this war has been going on for a while? Why wouldn’t the US send Ukraine aid to defend itself?

              Regarding the US reaction back then in general, though: Why didn’t the US enforce the Budapest memorandum?

                No they didn’t. They were already there. The biggest feature of Crimea is the naval base that Russia had been leasing since Ukraine had a legitimately elected government. When the US supported Nazi led coup regime took power they tried to cancel the lease. The Russians simply stayed put. They didn’t invade. They were already there.

                Are there any more fundamental understandings of recent history you would like me to catch you up on?

                  You realise that Crimea is larger than Sevastopol and Donetsk and Luhansk are not on Crimea?

                  Also, that “US supported Nazi coup” is 100% Russian propaganda not backed by anything but fantasy?
