The minute they bring out that nonsense the move is to draw out their racism, asking over and over; Why is it OK for the US and it’s allies to violate the borders of a hundred non-white countries? HAMMER THE QUESTION

Fortunately, in this case it is easy to ask the question of whether people in Donbass and Crimea deserve self-determination just like the people of Kosovo did. Taking a closer look at the region and its nuances, 11 years ago, was what made me stop automatically receiving the NATO worldview.
