    If the US ever favoured peace and stability it would have had the 2-state solution done in the 1990s. The US always wanted the conflict to be a managed conflict, but never ending.

      While the US has its stated policy, it cannot interfere with sovereign authority without unilateral justification. A 2 state solution needs agreement from Palestinians and Israelis alike. I truly hope this can come to fruition to end the needless loss of life.

          The Donetsk Republic is not a sovereign nation and has never been recognized to be.

              What international body has recognized this separatist movement?

                The UN charter gives them the right to self determination. As a Russian minority in a majority-Ukrainian state they have the right to do so.

                  It’s possible an separate representing body could be a part of a Ukrainian republic. That’s an interesting thought and I’d love to discuss it further!

                    The only discussion the West understands is at the end of a gun barrel. Otherwise nothing but hypocrisy and double standards.

                    I mean imagine if I said “It’s possible an separate representing body could be a part of the Russian Federation. That’s an interesting thought and I’d love to discuss it further!” about Ukraine.

        So why did Joe Bellend and Obomba overthrow a democratically elected Yakunovich 10 years ago? Or joined up with france-cool in Lybia? Or propped up ISIS over a decade ago and try to overthrow Assad, creating a refugee crisis? Or attempt a failed coup in Xinjiang? Or hell, even in December of 2019 overthrow MAS in Bolivia? Just a few recent examples.

        Sure as shit sounds like anything except “interfering with sovereign authority without unilateral justification”.
