  1. Morgan, wake up and smell some coffee. This war started not one year ago, but in 2014 when Kiev started shelling ethnic Russians in Donbas resulting in deaths of at least 14 000 people. Had Russia invaded Donbass then, there would have been no war there - just like there was no war in Crimea thanks to Russia's invasion of Crimea. Sadly, Russia only decided to provide military help to Donbass instead. You, the Westerners, yourselves were reporting then far and wide that Russia was providing military help to Donbas - something that now you prefer not to mention because you want to keep your audience in the myth that "Russia illegally and all of the sudden invaded peaceful Ukraine one year ago". When it was clear that Kiev wasn't able to submit Donbass by military means, the Minsk agreements were established. Both Olan, Merkel and Zelensky all admitted a few months ago that that was only for buying some time, not for having a real peace in the region. And since then you, the West, have been pumping Ukraine with all kinds of military help in order to go ahead and re-take Donbass. Only an idiot would think that Russia would be watching this peacefully and not doing anything.
