🇺🇸 U.S. looks unlikely to label Russian troops entering occupied Eastern Ukraine 🇺🇦 as an invasion.
Their logic is that they've been there since 2014 in a "voluntary" capacity.

I refuse to call the above "Tanks in Donetsk" as others are gleefully tweeting.
A light Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC), is in no way a tank.
It might not matter to some, but accuracy is important to me.
Also, Zelenskyy had 2 ys in his name.

Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) forces are still claiming Ukrainian artillery is falling on their positions.
I find this unlikely given Zelenskyy's clear statement on Diplomatic solutions, not to mention the huge risk of hitting Russian troops.
