You may want to follow the string of posts I was responding to before accusing me of being off topic rather than trying to bring in "Chechnya, Kosovo" into the mix. As for your opinion on Thailand's decision, good for you. I would expect nothing less based on your previous posts.

You agree with it after you are faced with evidence, before that you claim something else. The rest of your post is off topic unless you want to also bring in Russian support for separatists in other countries as well?

Oh please, 2014: Russia took advantage of them to launch a coordinated political and military campaign against Ukraine.[64] Russian citizens led the separatist movement in Donetsk from April until August 2014, and were supported by volunteers and materiel from Russia.[65][66][67] As the conflict escalated in May 2014, Russia employed a "hybrid approach", deploying a combination of disinformation, irregular fighters, regular Russian troops, and conventional military support to destabilize the Donbas. As for the rest of your thoughts, you provide just that, thoughts and no evidence, I stick to facts and opinions based on those. Feel free to ask me any opinions based on those and I'll gladly respond.

You need to sort out what my topic was, then you may have some idea of what I was responding to, ie the bio labs conspiracy which is indeed laughable: It was a lurid and difficult to believe claim: that Ukraine was developing biological weapons with the assistance of the U.S. government, in fact, U.S. assistance to Ukrainian biological labs has been targeted at strengthening public health measures, both the U.S. and Ukraine have also signed a treaty vowing never to produce or use biological weapons. But unlike most Russian efforts to spread false narratives justifying its invasion of Ukraine, this one found a receptive audience in the United States among far-right social media channels, Fox News and followers of the QAnon conspiracy theory. Biological Threat Reduction Program https://ua.usembassy.gov/embassy/kyiv/sections-offices/defense-threat-reduction-office/biological-threat-reduction-program/ Russia has accused Ukraine and the US at the UN security council of a plot to use migratory birds and bats to spread pathogens Russian lawmakers have accused Ukraine of using “mutant” soldiers, supposedly created in a U.S. operated biological laboratory, to fight off Russian soldiers Russia even brought these claims to the UN Assembly with no evidence: No evidence Ukraine has biological weapons, UN says following Russian accusation | FULL The UN Security Council met at Russia's request on Friday to discuss what Moscow claims are "the military biological activities of the U.S. on the territory of Ukraine." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrYwtS-ENps Your video by the way shows nothing of the situation back in 2014 aside from what the reporter said, filmed and witnessed which was the Ukraine military going to engage "terrorists" but were blocked by a group of civilians so stopped & no that's nothing like 24th Feb in Kyiv.

All I see are the Ukraine military not hurting civilians and nothing to do with the bio labs points I took up with the poster. Maybe you can share a video of the mutant Ukraine soldiers or the pathogen infected birds ready to fly over the borders to Russia?

Saw that on yahoo too, brilliant!! They called it the result of a "two-man referendum" on "annexing" the spot for Ukraine. On Thursday the city announced it would not paint over the impromptu protest. https://www.yahoo.com/news/two-finnish-guys-annexed-russian-084922132.html

That's not how Russia see's the Minsk Agreement though: A major blockage has been Russia’s insistence that it is not a party to the conflict and therefore is not bound by its terms. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/2/9/what-is-the-minsk-agreement-and-why-is-it-relevant-now
