Where were you for the last 8 years when the war crimes were committed in the East of Ukraine? West didn’t talk about it, CNN wasn’t putting up banner “We are Donbass” but bombing and shelling of the cities was happening nonetheless. Get of your high horse, it doesn’t have legs to stand on.
- jotm 5y agoWatched too much Russian news? I have no idea what was going on in DNR/LNR. The western stance was that Ukraine was combating separatists aided by the Russian government. The Russian narrative of "we're helping the newly recognized DNR/LNR" doesn't make much sense - why are they invading all of Ukraine to make those two regions safe? This is sort of like if the US "helped" Taiwan by taking Beijing. Or South Korea by capturing Pyongyang. Also, the Russian news keep saying "DNR/LNR forces aided by Russian forces". When it's clear it's just the Russian military.

- maydup-nem 5y ago> Why does it matter where this person was 8 years ago? Not 8 years ago, but for the last 8 years. You know, being unaware of some pretty basic circumstances around an issue and then claiming undeniability is pretty rich of you. > constructive comments that add to the conversation How did your comment add to the conversation? You just repeated a common black/white sentiment and showed that you weren't fully informed about the topic. Please, be mindful next time.
