This was never Russia's goal, you can't quote a single Russian official stating that this was the objective of the SMO.
No, Ukraine's goal was to "liberate" Donetsk, Lugansk and Crimea and return to their 1991 borders.

They've failed and will never reach this goal.
It is, you're just not on the side of the good guys : )
I love how libs just regurgitate the same lines in lieu of an argument like trained seals. 😂
Pretty funny how you can provide an explanation backed by references and then get mass downvotes because libs still have problems engaging with reality after a year and a half of being wrong about absolutely everything.
I wish I didn’t have to individually block lemmygrad accounts- it’s my only issue with kbin.social. Still love you, Ernest.
You are really living up to your username.
I love how libs can't even block others without doing virtue signalling 😂
Could you whine less? I like the positive energy of this place and you are ruining my vibes.
I’m positive that this comment will help me find more users who stray from your echo chamber. Keep ‘em coming.
The people straying from the "echo chamber" aren't the ones blocking others for dissent. Sounds like you're projecting.
I’m open to new political opinions, just not regressing through yours.
I completely understand blocking or ignoring those who engage you in bad faith, but when someone disagrees with you and also engages in a discussion in good faith, you are merely silencing voices of dissent by blocking them.
How is that approach not creating an echo chamber? It seems hypocritical to label spaces that welcome good faith discourse "echo chambers" while creating your own.
Are you upset?
You don’t understand blocks do you? Here’s another shot.
