are you referring to the separatists getting killed?
Is "separatist" now a magic word that makes it okay to kill fourteen thousand civillians?
i mean if you declare independence and take over a region, you should probably expect a military response from the country you're declaring independence from
that clip says "2500 dead" but it doesn't say who killed who or how many of those were soldiers, and there's no timestamp for when it was released so it has to obviously be after the separatists already declared independence
look, i'm no fan of ukraine but it definitely seems a lot of y'all drank the kool aid
You have the order of events perfectly reversed. The Ukrainian coup government began ethnic cleansing of people in the east. This resulted in a separatist movement. It would be very, very weird to have a resistance movement before there was anything to resist. What you're saying is the equivalent of "Hamas arose out of nowhere and started the war on October 7th."
It is very ironic to accuse others of drinking kool aid while yourself repeating actual fascist propaganda and historical revisionism.
I see you also do not take well to being corrected.
calling it a coup is a bit of a stretch when 73% of the parliament voted to kick the dude out
