  4.  @arnoldsaunders7885  have you ever been to Eastern Europe? Ever been to Ukraine, to Donbass? I have. Don't start talking about Czechoslovakia as I am a half Czech. I know more about the history of the slavic peoples and eastern Europe than you will ever know. You twist and turn history. The Czechoslovak land was Carpethenian Ruthenia, funnily enough the "Hungarian" land you claim was transferred is exactly the same land. In Czechoslovak times it was an autonomous region within the state because the majority of the people were Ruthenians, aka Ukrainians. When Czechoslovakia was split by the Germans, the region declared itself the Republic of Carpathian Ukraine before being invaded by the Hungarians. The Romanian land of Bucovina and Besserabia was annexed by the USSR from Romania. Ukraine as a nation had nothing to do with this. Southern Besserabia and Bucovina became part of Ukraine whilst the Moldovan Soviet Socialist Republic was created from the remainder of Besserabia + the Moldovan ASSR (Tranistria, which was part of the Ukrainian SSR) in regards to Crimea, yes it was transferred by Kruchev to Ukraine, just before regions of the Ukrainian SR were transferred to the Russian FSR. Kinda a Soviet practice. Donbass has always been a part of the Ukrainian SSR. The regions of formery eastern Poland were once again annexed by the USSR, the majority Ukrainian regions (eastern Galicia) were added to the Ukrainian SSR, whilst the majority Belarusian regions were added to the Belarusian SSR and the Wilno/Vilnius region to the Lithuanian SSR. The Polish people were moved by the USSR to nowadays western Poland. The Czechs remember the prague spring too btw. Apparently the Czechs were facists too? Again you twist and turn history to suite your own needs. You tell half truths or keep out half the story. If we were to give the Crimeans to their native population, it would be the Crimean Tartars, displaced by the Russians btw, and guess what? They want to be part of Ukraine. The Russians living in Donbass and Crimea are colonists, moved there by the Russian Empire and USSR a remnant of colonialism. Donbass is a Ukrainian region and Crimea a Crimean tatar region. That said obviously the Russians there can live there but historical claims are bs overall, as it would mean Germany could claim alot of land, and as we can see with you, history is often twisted to suit ones need. These regions are as integral part of Ukraine as Kent is part of the UK. About the coup... don't even start, a corrupt politician was ousted by it's people. They have that right. He was self serving, they wanted to choose their own future. That's their right, just like the UK did with Brexit. It wasn't a coup. They want to be more European, I know this because I actually have Ukrainian friends and family and my sources aren't just Kremlin lies and propaganda. And yeah the other part of the country didn't like this, had you known Ukrainian history, you know the country had always been divided between pro European and pro Russian. That is until 2014, with Crimea and Donbass, and now in 2022, country is more United than ever. I guess they should thank Putin for that atleast.
