This is how it all started in 2014.Armed terrorists and mercenaries of the Russian.They began to seize administrations in eastern Ukraine.Ukraine launched an antiterrorist operation.Someone else wants to say that it was not Russia that started everything? Continuation👇

1.Russian bots who claim that Maidan is to blame for everything. I want to answer once and for all. People on the Maidan came out against the corrupt pro-Russian authorities. For European integration, freedom and democracy, which was taken away from them.

3. For which, they were beaten by the Berkut special forces police, at the direction of the Yanukovych authorities. After that, the large-scale Maidan began. In the Donbass, armed separatists and terrorists of Russia began seizing administrative buildings and an armed coup.

3. Ukraine, in response to this, began to conduct an anti-terrorist operation. It would be carried out by any country that protects its sovereignty and inviolability. Do you feel the difference between Meydan and the Conflict in the East?

Now about the referendum.

1. It was held on the territory of a sovereign state, violating all international laws. Also at gunpoint.

The referendum is held if there are more than 50% of the residents. In Donbas, during a false referendum, most people were already displaced and could not vote. So the fate of the region was decided by a minority of its inhabitants.

According to the Constitution of Ukraine, the land of Ukraine is the property of the entire people. Ukraine is a unitary state. A separate region cannot decide its own destiny without a general referendum.

It's Why didn't Russia hold a referendum when Chechnya wanted independence from Russia? They started a war against them. So why doesn't she spend them at home? And in foreign countries, he arranges armed conflicts to annex the territory. Conducting a pseudo-referendum.

The country is Nazi when this ideology is supported by the majority of residents. In the elections in Ukraine, radical parties did not gain 1% of the votes. But in Russia, more than 80% of the population supports military aggression against Ukraine. Can you see the difference?

2. Yes, there are people with Nazi views in Ukraine. But it's an overwhelming minority. And there are Nazis in any country, and there are even more of them than in Ukraine. In some, as we can see in the example of Russia, with the ideology of the "Russian world".

This is Donetsk under Ukraine and under Russia. Ukraine has a beautiful, developing city. With a premium stadium, an international airport, etc. Under Russia, you can see everything yourself

Comparison. Donetsk is "bad" as the Russian propaganda to Ukraine claims. And under the "good" Russia, which staged a conflict there and created its own pseudo-republics

All this says one thing. Russia is covered in blood. They don't care about people. They are ready to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of people, destroy cities to dust. For the sake of their imperial ambitions. People in Donetsk lived peacefully and happily before Russia came th

And this is Mariupol before the arrival of the Russian occupiers, and after... and this is just one example of many
