Unlike the Crimea, I think the Donbass region has always been a part of Ukraine. Which I think why Russia relies on those poor freedom and democracy fighters for independence from Ukraine
. Tuff titties though, I'm really not worried about provoking Russia on this one. Ukraine has every right to ask for help from NATO and defend it's security and borders from Russian backed separatists or overt armed military incursion. Putin;'s claim of defending ethnic Russians isn't much of an excuse to move Russian armed forces into the Donbass. They choose to live their if they dont like it they can move.
Would have been great if we at least tried to establish better relations to see what could be done. But I think instead as we move warships into the Black Sea we're on the road to armed conflict, we must listen to our generals they know best.
