Luhansk and Donetsk regions recognised as independent states by Russia – as it happened

Aziqbal what hapoened to british troops that were supposed to defend Ukraine as you were saying a few weeks ago?

Everyone knows that Britain wont do anything. Why? because Ukraine is not on the other side of English Channel or North Sea.

Will Ukraine fight back?

Most Ukrainians wont fight. Because Ukraine is Russia. It was where Russia was born and was the seat of its empire for centuries.

It would be like East Germany and West Germany. Same nation, same language, culture and common history. USA knows it Western Europe knows it and thats why no NATO power will put soldiers on the ground in case of Russian invasion.

Would be totally different story if lets say Poland or Sweden were invaded.

Putin is a great man. Protect what is his unlike some greedy imperialism who take more than they can chew.

When the Mongols genocided the Chinese, the Mongols lost any conquest privileges over the Chinese. The Chinese fighting against the Mongols were good. And the Mongol barbarians were evil.

Same with this genocidal Russian Empire/USSR/Russian Federation. Each state genocided Caucasian minorities. Lost any and each authority to govern minorities, especially those genocided. Unless should we start supporting the Yuan Dynasty again.?.

Barbarian genociders and cia endless warnomgers have zero privileges in ruling a boy scout squad, let alone any country.

Break up the Russian Federation.

China has to worry about the putin Qanon movement to unite Washington and Moscow against Beijing.

 

[帅的一匹]

China should stay out of Russia Ukraine conflict.

When should focus on the Taiwan strait.

An excellent decision by Russia.

Declare Donbass independent states. Then their leaders will request Russian help to protect against Ukrainian military aggression.

As I said before, Ukraine will lose territory if they play games with Russia and that’s exactly what has happened. They have lost Crimea and now lost the Donbass since the 2014 coup.

West would have sanctioned Russia regardless and Putin made the correct decision.

NATO won’t do shit against Russia.

Well done Putin.

 

[nang2]

Now that is an very interesting move. Who has thought of that? It is not invasion. It is peacekeeping?!

Putin protected ethnic Russians without firing a shot. A great leader.

Ukraine have now lost Crimea and Donbass since the 2014 coup. This is what happens when you become cannon fodder for the Anglosaxons.

It's only for 'peacekeeping' nothing bad will happen.

annexation of donbass...

Peacekeepers?

Of course, Ukraine is not part of NATO . So no treaty obligation for NATO to interven. In fact this also reinforces the decision those small Eastern European countries made to join NATO despite the fact that some of their people were against it at that point. I am sure that today they are counting their lucky stars for joining NATO when they still had time/chance to do so. Else they would have been the ones facing similar invasion /secessionists backed by Russia like Georgia/Ukraine and the likes have been victim of. Had Geogia and Ukraine been part of NATO then this would have never happened. I suppose this also serves as a reason for NATO pessimists like Turkey, Finland, Sweden etc who have been pessimistic about or reluctant to join NATO.
I think Finland especially will want to review its decision to remain out of NATO in future.

Moreover as a Chinese I thought your government is even more wary than most countries on earth to support secessionists movements which they often deem as terrorism(If not worse). So it sounds weird to see you cherring for secessionists movements from another sovereign country(which your foreign minister was just recently supporting its territorial intergrity and was against any invasion) while calling your own secessionists movements as terrorists and radicals. Lol
You should remember that just over half a century ago Russia tried to use the same method in Xijiang to separate Xinjiang from China(like they did with Mongolia earlier) as a satellite Soviet state (like most of its central and Eastern European states) unfortunately they failed since KMT nationalistic Chinese Government/military intervened promptly, else if KMT government was a tad bit weaker back then, Xinjiang won't be part of your country today. Lol

As I said before we live in a world of the strong preying on the weak, there is no right or wrong here . That's just how the world works. As you can see it can be very risky and unlucky to be a neighbour or Russia. Lol especially if you are weak in that case it's either you submit, fight or cede your territories to them for peace to reign..

Putin orders Russian military to Donbass Republics as peacekeepers​

The president has signed a decree outlining roadmap for cooperation between Russia and the republics recognised by Ukraine as its own territory

Russian President Vladimir Putin has officially recognized Donetsk and Lugansk republics as independent states and ordered the Russian military to “secure the peace” in the two former regions of eastern Ukraine.

The Russian president officially signed the decree recognizing the independence of two breakaway regions on Monday. He has instructed the Russian Defense Ministry to send peacekeepers into the Donbass, while telling the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to establish diplomatic relations with both Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics.

annexation of donbass...

Peacekeepers?

It was pure sarcasm my friend.

The rational minded know exactly what this is.

 

[Beidou2020]

Everything I predicted has come true regarding this situation.

Russia used the Georgia strategy from 2008 regarding South Ossetia and Abkhazia. Declare them independent states and send Russian peacekeepers to protect those states against aggression. They won’t be absorbed into Russia.

Crimea was directly absorbed into Russia as it is far more important strategically due to the naval base in Sevastopol.

Ukraine is the biggest loser in this as they have now lost Crimea and the Donbass since the 2014 coup. That’s what you get for being a vassal state of the American empire. What a bunch of idiots.

Russians played this magnificently.

Hurry up and grab a piece of the cake.

Smart move by Putin. He is doing a limited incursion... Which gives the West a face-saving option of not doing anything...

Good job Russia... Standing up for Russian interests.
