We've heard it all before. The Russians lie and pretend they own Ukraine. Ukraine declared independence from the Soviet Union and the USSR officially recognized the state of Ukraine and formally agreed to respect its borders in 1991.

The Russian Federation agreed to honor the Soviet Union's treaties and agreements as a condition of inheriting the USSR's permanent seat on the UN Security Council, including recognizing Ukraine as a sovereign state.

Russia signed the Budapest Memorandum in 1994 assuring territorial integrity for Ukraine.

Putin's Russia signed the Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation and Partnership of May 31, 1997, which assured that Ukraine's 1991 territorial integrity would be respected.

Russia agreed to Minsk I cease fire, OSCE monitoring, Russian forces violated the agreement the next day

Russia agreed to Minsk II cease fire, removal of forces back to Russia, OSCE monitoring and respect Ukraine's borders. Putin did none of that. He violated the agreement almost immediately and 6 days later led a bloody assault on the Ukrainian town of Debaltseve.

If Putin the Prevaricator had honored any of Russia's previous signed agreements, there would have been no need for Minsk. Obviously Putin/Russia will never honor any future agreements. Russians are treacherous pieces of shit who cannot be trusted to keep their word and their actions prove it. Now wonder the civilized world puts up with nogs, but refuses and avoids Russians.
