The US could also simply not have backed the 2014 fascist coup in Ukraine to sideline the Minsk agreements against the interests and wishes of Eastern Ukrainians
and the subsequent killings of ethnic Russians in Eastern Ukraine, like Donbas, DPR, and LPR, by the coup gov for resisting which gave Russia the casus belli to invade.
The only way this was always going to end — the only way the vast majority of conflicts that don't result in one side completely destroying the other end — is by negotiations which the US and UK have been blocking.
Always trying to scapegoat just one guy lmao. Instead of acknowledging the current capitalist system in Russia and the resulting material conditions that brought him to power in the first place, and created the situation for war.
Dude, you don't even know that DPR and LPR are in Donbas. Stop regurgitating points you don't understand.
So much this. ETA This has more truth than most people in the world, especially the USA, can handle.
