Are you high, friend? They speak Ukrainian, it’s a completely different language. Similar, but different.

Imagine you’re suggesting that Spain is “basically Brazil” because they “speak Portuguese”.

Brazil was a portugal colony that’s why they speak Portugese.

But being a colony is different from being an equal part of the nation where you have the same rights as everyone else.

Ukraine and Russia were one country before 1991, equal rights for everyone. Taiwan and China were also one country. Both breaking is because of American intervention.

  US and UK used to be one country. Should US now become subservient to the UK based on that?

    US and UK weren’t one country. US was a UK colony. The UK passed the baton of being the world superpower to US.

    Yeah, so exactly as with USSR and Ukraine.
    
    that’s why they celebrate independence day
    
    Yeah, so exactly as with USSR and Ukraine.
    
    The only reason Ukraine and Taiwan want to separate from Russia and China respectively is because of American interference
    
    Nobody gave a shit about Americans in Ukraine when the Orange Revolution happened, or during the Maidan Protests. They just wanted democracy and re-integration with the West.
    
    One more time: Ukraine was an independent country around 400 years before Muscovy (proto-russia) became a thing. It got gobbled up by the various superpowers of the area, but always retained its national identity. Culturally, there’s a very clear continuation from the Kyivan Rus all the way to modern day Ukraine.
    
    You might as well suggest that the Scottish independence movements exist because of “American interference”, even though they existed for hundreds of years before the American Independence.
    
    You’re just repeating russian propaganda points verbatim, so I don’t know if you’re this ignorant, or a russian bot. If it’s ignorance, feel free to ask questions, I know lots of people are super confused with what’s going on in Ukraine and that area due to russian disinformation campaigns.
