  1. "Russia should not have invaded Ukraine" - Guys, when will you finally realize that Russia DID NOT invade Ukraine. When you say "Ukraine", allow me to ask you which state exactly do you mean and what definition of that state do you follow? I guess for any democratical non-monarchial state, the document that defines the state is the Constitution of that state. So, if you refer to the Constitution of Ukraine, you will read clearly that the state of Ukraine is a state, in which the state power IN NO WAY can be changed by any means that is not provided for in the Constitution. As we know, what happened in February 2014 was a revolution - they themselves call that "Revolution of Dignity". In other words, the state power was changed outside the means provided for in the Constitution of Ukraine. Hence, from that point on, what we have there is perhaps some other kind of state, but definitely not the state of Ukraine defined in the Constitution. Now, as we all know all too well, right on the next day after that revolution took place both Crimea and Donbas declared their refusal to submit to the new unconstitutional authorities in Kiev, that is, they declared their independence. That was a factual collapse of the state of Ukraine. Therefore, if Russia invaded anything, it invaded Crimea and Donbass, but not Ukraine! And, of course, we know what happened in April 2014 - Kyiv while having no legal constitutional right to exercise any control over Donbas still decided to regain such control by deploying troops to Donbas and shelling its population. This was the first blood in this whole conflict and this was how this war started - in April 2014, not in February 2022.
