Native Russian speakers in Donbass.
Listen: the issue is about the IMF vs Russian banking. Has nothing to do with the will of the people.
Could you explain please
You have to go back to waaay back when. There was a dispute over how Ukraine was going to lean. On the one side they had austerity IMF loans on the other Russian banks saying maybe not so much, so really it's a war among capitalists for market share. And of course resources, the breadbasket, the access to the black sea military shit. But mostly it's the opportunity to sell off all the Ukrainian public resources and services to third party capitalists.
Thanks :)
