Ukraine told critics of the pace of its three-month-old counteroffensive to "shut up" on Thursday, the sharpest signal yet of Kyiv's frustration at leaks from Western officials that say its forces are advancing too slowly.
Oh there’s plenty of other reasons to impeach Trump. Why would he even be impeached over that, though. I don’t really follow US news, it’s silly over there.
His first impeachment was over him extracting personal political benefit from sending weapons to Ukraine that they were using to carry out their ethnic cleansing
If the ethnic cleansing were 100% fabricated by Russian propaganda then the Hillary Cliintons of the USA are Putin bots.
You are aware that Russia already invaded in 2014?
No they didn’t. They were already there. The biggest feature of Crimea is the naval base that Russia had been leasing since Ukraine had a legitimately elected government. When the US supported Nazi led coup regime took power they tried to cancel the lease. The Russians simply stayed put. They didn’t invade. They were already there.
Are there any more fundamental understandings of recent history you would like me to catch you up on?
Nah it shows that the US had opinions on Ukraine. US emissaries also tried to convince protestors to enter negotiations and compromise with Yanukovich and they were having none of that.
US emissaries and the Rada coming to the same conclusion when it comes to who is a good interim whatever isn’t terribly surprising, you always pick prominent, well-respected, honourable, non-partisan middle of the road people for that kind of thing. People who can be trusted to organise proper elections and not fuck shit up in the meantime.

Is this a joke? The US sidelined the main opposition forces who wanted to stay on good terms with both Russia and the US in favor of literal nazis. The new president was the leader of the “fatherland party” until he splintered it off into an even more conservative group which had a military council of nazi paramilitary leaders and was basically generically called “national socialist party”
Turchynov? You can say a lot of things about him especially that he’s conservative, but not that he wouldn’t be a democrat. But who was interim wasn’t important in the first place as then there were elections.
Those were won by Poroshenko who was rather heavy-handed in the east, also socially conservative, which made people (for one or both of those reasons) vote for Zelensky – an ethnic Russian, running on a “let’s try to be friends” platform, but not one of those “let’s just bend over for Russia and let the Kremlin rule the country” people, either.
Those are all descisions of the Ukrainian electorate. To imply that that was all the US reeks of conspiratorial American exceptionalism. Believe it or not things happen without the CIA having their dirty fingers in it.
Ever wonder why they impeached him over some bullshit most people didn’t give a fuck about in a country most people didn’t know existed at the time instead of the mountains of evidence of his predatory behavior?

You are aware that Russia already invaded in 2014? That this war has been going on for a while? Why wouldn’t the US send Ukraine aid to defend itself?
Regarding the US reaction back then in general, though: Why didn’t the US enforce the Budapest memorandum?
No they didn’t. They were already there. The biggest feature of Crimea is the naval base that Russia had been leasing since Ukraine had a legitimately elected government. When the US supported Nazi led coup regime took power they tried to cancel the lease. The Russians simply stayed put. They didn’t invade. They were already there.

You realise that Crimea is larger than Sevastopol and Donetsk and Luhansk are not on Crimea?
Also, that “US supported Nazi coup” is 100% Russian propaganda not backed by anything but fantasy?
Nuland/pyatt call at minimum shows that they took advantage of already existing protests to do a soft coup.

No. Yanks impeached a President over a blowjob, that is, any- and everything.
