A country split in half by a Russian military occupation is a direct result of a Russian military occupation

The goal of Maidan was to push Russian oligarchs out of Ukraine. You can't call that a success, unless you just stop recording history after 2021.

The idea that Ukrainians just showed up with guns and poof they won, is blinkered.

We didn’t choose to get invaded.

Simply showing up with guns did not make a rival military force vanish.
