I find it’s great to ask them what they think about NATO invasion of Yugoslavia where NATO recognized the independence of breakaway regions on the pretext of genocide, and then held referendums while these regions were occupied. It’s really fun to watch them explain that’s completely different from the approach Russia took in Ukraine.
Yup. Like, Putin did say at the time that it was a dangerous precedent.
Putin did follow up supporting independence of ossetians who preferred joining North ossetia to being in Georgia.
He also supported ethnic Russians for joining up Russia in Crimea.
Like, the west opened up this melon, and act all surprised that its spilling on their hands.
