Ah yes, Euromaidan. When Ukrainians kicked out the Russian puppet politician and replaced him with… shuffles notes
Oh, there was no replacement. They just held a democratic vote and the puppet fled.
And then Putin retaliated by sending soldiers into Ukraine, which according to Putin, is an act of international aggression.
When Ukrainians kicked out the Russian puppet politician
The guy they kicked out was actively trying to join the EU. The riots that kicked off a decade of bloody civil war did nothing to decouple Ukraine from Russia. All it achieved was to militarize the conflict.
And then Putin retaliated by sending soldiers into Ukraine
Just as they did in Chechnya and Tajikistani, to the thunderous applause of Americans in the grip of their War on Terror.
Hell, we outright partnered with him under Clinton and Bush.

You say this like Putin is subhuman, a force of nature that must be handled with care.
And like Ukrainians are the ones that caused their own abuse under his regime.
Be more specific, name the human being who sent soldiers into Ukraine.
What the fuck are you talking about?
