Look, the obvious point here is that you can't take someone's pretext for war at face value like the fuckhead who thinks it's okay to starve Yemeni children because of Iran did. There's always some kernel of truth to hang them on, but it doesn't justify criminal military aggression, either in Ukraine or Yemen.
I completely agree. But we’re talking about Yanukovich here, who was deposed by a revolution, not a war. There were many reasons why the Ukrainians were fed up with him, it was well justified.
