@mikska uh, no, the "people of Donbas" were not unarmed. They were supported & armed by Russia. And they overran the Ukrainian military posts & stole their weapons. THAT was documented in the 1st season of Vice's "Russian Roulette" series. It on my Ukraine playlist. Flight MH17 and Russia's 'little green men' "In Donbass, Russia’s approach was characterised by lending implicit support to separatist forces, while depicting them as a bottom-up, local rebellion. This kind of “hybrid warfare” blurs the boundaries between state-controlled regular armed forces and the rogue local and mercenary forces. This strategy was viable owing to the porous border between the Donbass region and Russia (the demarcation of the Ukrainian-Russian border has long been opposed by Russia), easy transportation routes and ready volunteers within and from beyond Ukraine. However, it was noticeable that the top commanders of the various self-proclaimed republics were Russian citizens from Moscow – such as Alexander Borodai and Igor Strelkov – the last one with extensive military experience in various hotspots in post-communist Europe."

 @mikska as for Kyiv's response, they did what any country would do when armed rebels take over government facilities. What was Putin's response to Chechnya when they attempted to break away?

@tatianalyulkin410 apparently Kremlin interference in Ukrainian national interests is okay, but when the majority of Ukrainians want nothing to do with their Kremlin imperialist masters, ruzzia gets upset.

What a muppet regurgitating Kremlin propaganda. Ukraine was not democratic because they had a coup? They had a coup because the putin sock puppet president went back on his promises to begin procedures to join the EU & instead cozied up to his puppet master in ruzzia. How many elections were held in Ukraine after he ran off to hide behind Putin's skirts? That "8 years of bombing Donbas" is another load of horsesh1t. What does any country do when rebels forcibly take over a territory? What did putin do when Chechnya tried to break away?
