Muddied? There's this thing called "nuance." I support Donbas independence, I simply don't think it gives Russia the right to invade anywhere outside of Donbas, is that that complicated to understand?
So if you invade another country and as part of their defense of their country, their military enters your country, they're now the aggressors?
Do you apply that principal to all conflicts, or only against enemies of the West?
Huh? When did Ukraine invade Russia?
They've been shelling and raiding the Donbas, which you consider to be independent, for about 9 years.
Surely you are aware of this, it's pretty essential background on a political topic that you are highly opinionated about.
