In a meeting with the Russian security council, Vladimir Putin has asked for the separatist Donetsk and Luhansk "people's republics" to be recognised as independent states.
Russia-backed rebels in those areas – located in Ukraine's eastern Donbas region – have been fighting the Ukrainian military since 2014 but Moscow has not officially recognised their self-declared republics.
Ukraine and the West fear that if this happens, it could lead Moscow to openly send military forces into the area.

They will do the same as they did in Crimea, make the region independent then annex it.
they already did, when they started to giveaway russian passports to everyone in Donbass. And now they say that in Donbass 800k russian citizens, and they need to protect them. how convenient
This is, regretfully, possible
and the vast majority of the population wanted it ,
Donbass is total wreck, not much of a price at all to ‘win’. It’s the etnical Russians there that is the issue of Putin.
Being Russian is million billion trillion times better than being a free Crimean
Maybe start recognising Ukraine as an independent state first?
there is Russian embassy in kiev but the president of Ukraine is the US ambassador
@@louisecorchevolle9241 What?
Washington has no intention of allowing the Ukrainians to become independent. Victoria Nuland picked the leader after the coup.
The Ukrainians think they will get independence?
Just look at Iraq.
Maybe start recognising Crimea carrying out a referendum to become part of Russia because they wont like to be part of a country that removes politicans who are too “Pro rus” and with help of a german coup put a president in power without elections.
2014 is when Ukraine become western puppet
“Peace was never an option” best said
It never was
Putin is paranoid and delusional. The West has zero intention of ever invading Russia.
@@CarShopping101 because of Russian winter
@@rockyyyy225 No bc the West has no interest in an offensive war and occupying a giant country like Russia. Putin still has a WW2 mindset while civilized countries have moved on to the 21st century. Western countries want peace bc peace means lots of money to be made by countries that get along. War is bad for business.
In peace always prepare for war history always taught that
If Putin recognizes Russian held regions in Ukraine as independent then that would risk the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO as a defensive measure which would defeat his objective.
NATO has a general policy of not admitting states with ongoing territorial disputes
Yeah but might add two minutes flight time to nato nukes. Something at least. Let en have it … west goes west east goes east
I don’t think he means that kind of independent, i think he means the Putin version of “independant”
@@LordDim1 Greece, Spain and Romania have territorial disputes and claims yet they are in NATO
First of all there is ongoing dispute so big no, second they are not part of cool kid.
it seems illogical to me to be aggressive towards someone and yet expect that person or country to not be aggressive back, be it passive aggression or regular aggression
Sanctions against crazy aggressors and Putin’s mafia immediately!
Monster Putin !
Hands off Ukraine!

It’s a bit like how the Americans went to the Middle East and showed aggression, all over oil. As soon as the citizens fought back they were instantly labeled as terrorists.
@@user-vf7cx9lu9g Noop you are late Russia already put sanction toward USA and UK also few EU state.. No more iron wood Copper Carbon Fibre go to EU supercar company .No more oil To country been Sanction ..Keep brag
It does but it does in fact happen just look at Germany marched troops into Austria and just took it no repercussions
I can’t imagine what these people must be going through. My hearts go out to the soldiers fighting the war and their families.

Killer Putin!👹☠👎
Hands off Ukraine!
Is it time to punish this monster Putin !!!👹👎☠✡👎☠👎
Don’t fool yourself. They deserve it. If the Russo race were sensible people they wouldn’t have killed millions of their own citizens to appease an impotent Czar. This is the same situation, all for a man’s ego. This is also why USSR fell apart. Everyone wants to be the king.
Why your heart is not with ordinary people of Donbass that are killed/shelled every day ??? (by Kiev regime army and nazi troops)
many people are suffering in this world from war not just in Ukraine
Saying he’s interpreting the Ukraine as separate regional jurisdictions means that he’s open to invading certain areas but not others. How obviously political.

His idea of a compromise? Poor souls.
Because ukrainians are firing artillery on civilians in donetsk…?
He already declared it independence. 🤔
What he has done is (1) create a legal framework for facts on the ground, from a position of strength relative to Nato, (2) in effect created a buffer zone between Russia and Ukraine, no matter what happens — it’s undeniable the people in these regions support Russia more than Ukraine, (3) create a justification for military activity to the domestic Russian audience, the vast majority of whom are against Ukraine even though a majority do not want war, and (4) create a situation whereby China can support Russia against any Western economic sanctions, without compromising China’s relationship with Ukraine–since China enjoys close relationships with both countries.
Putin is playing on another level.
Yeah, Hitler also wanted to recognize Austria’s “German” ethnic group – but decided to take the whole country instead.
Putin is a Hitler of the 21th century!
The world must unite and push on crazy monster Putin and his bloody mafia immediately!!!

It was necessary to think back in 2014, when a coup d’etat was carried out in this country with the full support of the West.
This is Putin’s Sudetenland. History tells us what comes after.
I hate that morons keep comparing this to ww2, when it’s not even close. It’s like it’s the only piece of history they know. 🤦♂️
@@user-nn5sl7nh8n People got rid of a dictator who gunned them down. Not likely to allow Putin in easily to do the same
God this whole thing I wish as normal people who actually have to fight the nations battles information would be so much more crystal clear than it is. Anyone effected sending love , hope, and prayers to all of you. May peace prevail through all darkness. 🙏❤️
@Investigative Audit And who are those “same people”?
Hope so too
The less info the easier our diplomats can make deals. Its business ethics. Putin had ramped this up by loads in terms of lying, then trump. So we know even less as we were starting to know more. If you wanna help run for a position.
Russian people loves fighting for their families and hometowns than for justice.
Bible says ,abandon families for justice. But it is so difficult thing.
@@user-or2yx6zr8y where are you from
I couldn’t leave my son’s behind to fight, I’d rather I did that and they were safe
“War never changes” – fallout
For those who are interested, he recognized them as independent and signed agreements on mutual assistance (including military), and also demanded that Ukraine cease all hostilities.
Update: ffs, I just translated Putin’s speech for you, there is not a single word of mine here. No need to write me angry comments just because I’m Russian.
Update 2: Putin has just issued the following decree: “In connection with the appeals of the heads of the DPR and LPR to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, ensure that the armed forces of the Russian Federation carry out peacekeeping functions on the territory of the republics until the conclusion of the agreement.”
If diplomacy doesn’t work, it’s definitely war.
Except that it’s not Ukraine causing the hostilities, it’s Russia.
@@liukin95 Putin said exactly that, I just translated his words for those who want to know the direct translation, I do not interpret this conflict.
lol
We are not interested KGB propaganda

Or in this case stealing what isn’t theirs.
This is exactly what Putin did in Georgia back in 2008. Recognised South Ossetia and Abkhazia. Waited some time, provoked Georgians so they launched their attack and his mission was successful. Same thing is happening.
