I wonder if these two breakaway regions will be allowed to retain their independence post any invasion? My guess is that the issue will quietly be shelved, it having served its purpose.
On one of the many Whatsapp groups now populated by hundreds of foreign journalists covering this crisis, beleaguered Ukrainian officials are trying desperately to stem the flow of bizarre and potentially explosive allegations coming from pro-Russian separatists in the Donbas.
Have to say the western media is playing a full and central part in amplifying this BS propaganda. Almost every UK MSM outlet is running with the story about the alleged Ukrainian incursion. Is fact checking not a thing anymore?
