Ukraine told critics of the pace of its three-month-old counteroffensive to "shut up" on Thursday, the sharpest signal yet of Kyiv's frustration at leaks from Western officials that say its forces are advancing too slowly.
You are aware that Russia already invaded in 2014?
No they didn’t. They were already there. The biggest feature of Crimea is the naval base that Russia had been leasing since Ukraine had a legitimately elected government. When the US supported Nazi led coup regime took power they tried to cancel the lease. The Russians simply stayed put. They didn’t invade. They were already there.
Are there any more fundamental understandings of recent history you would like me to catch you up on?
you always pick prominent, well-respected, honourable, non-partisan middle of the road people for that kind of thing. People who can be trusted to organise proper elections and not fuck shit up in the meantime.
Is this a joke? The US sidelined the main opposition forces who wanted to stay on good terms with both Russia and the US in favor of literal nazis. The new president was the leader of the “fatherland party” until he splintered it off into an even more conservative group which had a military council of nazi paramilitary leaders and was basically generically called “national socialist party”
Sorry. The prime Minister was the nazi, I forget that ukraine has both.
But generally yes the people that nuland and pyatt installed ruined contrary to ukrainian interests. Neutrality was how they avoided war. Things leaned too far to Russia, that caused a coup that led to an anti-russia government which led to the war.

Nuland/pyatt call at minimum shows that they took advantage of already existing protests to do a soft coup.
