Yeah it's abot weird. They all seem to have similar opinions on everything.
What type of logic is that? Lol If every country was to use that excuse of past history and ethic background persecution in another sovereign country , then over half the countries on earth today will be at war with each other.
China will invade Mongolia and even Burma, since Mongolia was clearly part of China until Russia carved it out illegitmately from China, and vast parts of Burma close to the border with China are inhabited by ethnic Chinese rebels who have been at war with the central Burmese government for decades now. China should have invaded Burma and carve it out to its liking and annexed those parts inhabited by ethnic Chinese.
In fact China ca also use that excuse to invade Vietnam since there are ethnic Chinese who jave been persecuted there as well. Lol India should do the same with those Hindus who have been persecuted in Pakistan. etc etc many such examples around the world. You want to bring the world back in the 19th century ? 
Moreover why are you against Ukraine central government using every means in its arsenal to reunite its country against separatists? Ukraine central government has every right to maintain its territorial unity against any armed separatists groups irrespective of the reqson of these separatists. Just like China had every right to suppress separatists groups and militants in Tibet, and Xinjiang and even Taiwan , and how Indias central government has every right to use force to maintain its territorial intergrity in northeast against the many sepratsist groups there, same with Pakistan in against baluchistan separatists, or Sri Lanka against tamil tigers separatists etc etc etc.
The fact that some of you people try and make excuses to justify this while being against the same thing in another country just shows your bias to be honest.

Russians haven’t brought their best weapons nor they are fighting according to their usual doctrine of heavy artillery barrages and carpet bombing.

This is at great personal risk to Zelensky, and runs the risk he is taken out in transit or not able to return to Ukraine and is stranded if he leaves ukraine.
Belarus'sia' was and is never an option. That has been rejected outright.
If alternative talks are agreed to - Zelensky should send a "delegation" and not go himself.. or have a succession plan in place in case something happens to him during these "talks".

Lesson: do not be close-minded.
Depends what western media is barking about, When it foams at mouth against you know what..... FLUSH....
I can start with Eyraqs WMD and go on and on and on but there is no point nor there is enough space on this forum.

Ukraine’s Defense Ministry posted fake video as air battle
The verified Twitter page of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry published video game footage on February 25 claiming to show a Ukrainian fighter jet shooting down a Russian plane. On Saturday, Reuters fact-checked the widely shared fake video as ‘miscaptioned’.
The ministry’s tweet was still up at the time of publication. The 15-second video is accompanied by the caption, “What is this Ukrainian ace doing?” The Defense Ministry’s account describes it as a MiG-29 fighter jet destroying a Russian Su-35 jet with a missile.
Social media users were quick to point to the YouTube video ‘Ghost of Kiev. Dogfight between Ukrainian MiG29 and Russian Su27 simulated in DCS World’. The clip, which has over a million views, refers to an unconfirmed but quickly spreading story about the ‘Ghost of Kyiv’ Ukrainian ace, who allegedly managed to single-handedly down six enemy aircraft.
However, that clip was first uploaded to YouTube with the title ‘Ghost of Kiev kill’. The uploader claimed the footage was made with a digital combat simulator in the description box.
DCS stands for Digital Combat Simulator World, a digital battlefield game developed by Eagle Dynamics.
A spokesperson for the company Matthias Techmanski confirmed in an email to Reuters that the footage was from DCS, and that Eagle Dynamics was “not responsible for its distribution,” and does not endorse “such content.”
The Reuters fact check said the footage was ‘miscaptioned’ and comes from a video game. Twitter on Saturday flagged the Ukrainian Defense Ministry’s post as misleading. It said that "this media is presented out of context."
Some users deleted the misleading video and apologized.
There have been a number of other videos making their way around social media described as footage of the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine, thus highlighting the long-standing problem in which unverified videos with little to no context or research end up being spread throughout social media and are even picked up by government accounts.

You might not have noticed but this thread is about the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is literally in the name of the thread. So what does this march have to do with Libya or Syria? Why should I post videos of protests against the wars in Libya and Syria in a thread about Russia and Ukraine? Is that so hard to comprehend?

Russian MoD: Ukraine's Forces Use Banned Phosphorus Munitions Outside Kiev
According to the ministry's spokesman, the use of these munitions is prohibited under the UN Convention's Protocol on Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Incendiary Weapons.
Ukrainian forces, desperate to deter the Russian offensive, have started using munitions filled with phosphorus near Gostomel Airport outside Kiev, the Russian Defence Ministry said.
Kiev's forces
been using 122 mm D30 howitzers and rockets for BM-21 "Grad" systems made in the Soviet Union.
