Almost forgot about as Joe Biden put it, “A minor incursion” as Russia Invaded Ukraine. So much for international law.

@soar2newhighs Actually Russia is kicking out the occupying force in the region that used to be Eastern Ukraine. The people in the region voted to join Russia and Russia voted to accept the region so technically it is Ukraine that is doing the invading.

@Ohplease47 The eastern part of Ukraine voted to join Russia. Russia then voted to accept it as part of Russia. Why did Eastern Ukraine voted to become Russian? They are ethnic Russians. They speak Russian as their first language. Western Ukraine has been shelling them for over a decade. 30,000 Eastern Ukrainians were killed by Western Ukrainian shelling. Maybe if you studied up on the region you would have a much clearer understanding of what is going on.

@hippyjoe1955 i erased the question. I really dont know the issues well except that the original Russian invasion of Ukraine happened after dishonerable statements by Reagan to Gorbechev, regarding nato not moving one inch to the east in exchange for reductions of military tensions in Turkey...??
