Kremlin has just posted #Putin's speech in English: en.kremlin.ru/events/preside…
Dissecting it a bit for references to international law justifications for using force. Spoiler alert: Russia (obviously) does not have right to use force. It is #aggression. It's a crime of aggression. 1

It starts by referring to Ukrainians not as foreigners but embracing them as if they are Russian nationals. "Ukraine is not just a neighbouring country for us. It is an inalienable part of our own history,culture and spiritual space. These are our comrades, those dearest to us" 2 
Nationality of course is a very strong legal concept on the basis of which a lot is allowed: if #Ukraine is not foreign but domestic, it is "law enforcement" rather than "armed attack"; it is "protection" rather than "invasion"; it is "helping them" rather than "annexing from". 3
#Russia is committing an act of aggression. This is what the UN was created for in 1945 after WWII, to react against together: the collective security system. All states now have the right to use military force against Russia under the right to collective self defense of #Ukraine
But they don't just have the "right" to do so, they have the duty. The UN was made for this. Its Preamble starts with vowing that this is what they would stand against together. Now all those 193 UN states (- 1, #Russia) should put their military where their mouth is. #Ukraine
The UN 1974 "Definition of Aggression" stipulated that "no territorial acquisition resulting from aggression is or shall be recognized as lawful". Yet: Crimea in 2014 and now this. If all states would stand together against aggression #Russia wouldn't dare or be able to do this.
After sharing his grievances with the West in his Munich speech in 2007, tonight we got #Putin‘s #Ukraine speech, which too will go down in history as a declaration of war against Ukraine and the European security order. 1/
What will happen next? After Russia‘s recognition of #LPR and #DPR as independent states, these ‘states’ will invite Russian troops to reinstate peace and stability. Moscow will gladly send these troops to protect what it sees as Russian compatriots and citizens. 2/
After years of #passportization, hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian citizens in these regions have received Russian passports. Russia’s narrative will be that it sent troops after receiving official invitations from legitimate gov'ts and to protect Russians in its Near Abroad. 3/
