    Yes American promises are why Russia invaded despite being signatories to a treaty guaranteeing Ukrainian sovereignty.

        Excuses are great, still breaks a treaty.

        That sort of thing has a real cost in geopolitics.

          Condescension aside, saying that in favor of the faction that kicked this off by breaking both Minsk Agreements is some crazy irony

          Anyway why did Russia cross the border, according to you?

            Ukraine didn’t break the Minsk agreements and no reputable source claims they did.

            Russia invaded Ukraine because they fear neighbouring states that aren’t under Russia’s boot.

            If you were a communist you’d recognise that Russia is a totalitarian Oligarchy and a terrible place for the proletariat.
