This is funny because you can apply the same logic here with Luhansk and Donetsk but you don’t.

You could only apply the same logic if you completely ignore reality and history. Here’s what Jacobin, a western publication has to say about the events of 2014, so maybe stop trying to rewrite history here https://jacobinmag.com/2022/02/maidan-protests-neo-nazis-russia-nato-crimea

Svoboda and Right Sector? Or are you talking about the current government of Ukraine?

Current government in Ukraine is full of extremists an has even integrated Azov battalion, who are unapologetic nazis, into their regular military.

Sure, ironically if you typically invade a country like what Russia did, you are going to spur some serious nationalism and embolden those elements.

I’m not going to disagree that the US had trained people who are part of the parties previously mentioned and I am not exactly supportive of this as well.

Stop trying to rewrite history. Russia has never been the main aggressor here, and anybody claiming this is either an utter ignoramus or a liar.

US ran a color revolution in 2014 to install a pro western government in Ukraine. This was a long campaign, and even the guardian reported on it back in 2004 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/nov/26/ukraine.usa

and a bit more reporting on recent events from Jacobin https://jacobinmag.com/2022/02/maidan-protests-neo-nazis-russia-nato-crimea

edit: it’s quite telling that you get downvoted when providing evidence for what you’re saying, makes it pretty clear that people downvoting don’t actually care about facts
