People of Donbas whom the Ukrainian regime was abusing for the past eight years asked Russia for help to defend their lives and home. The atrocities the Ukrainian regime was committing were even covered by CNN in 2014 https://twitter.com/paulius60/status/1611148483859255296

Meanwhile, the west is not helping Ukraine, it's prolonging the war which results in more people dying without changing the outcome.
