I’m for the independence of any part of a country that wants it (after hearing everyone’s opinion), most large countries probably need to be broken up e.g. US, russia, China. But this is not the case, this is the largest country in the world absorbing a part of another country because some of its russian-speaking population wants to be russian but doesn’t want to move there.

You can ask for independence, but it’s just a scam when you do it just to irreversibly join their much larger neighbours, particularly if they are the ones sending weapons and people to kill you, take your rights away and send you to fight your own people.

PS: Oh shit, just realized that I’m in lemmy.ml instead of lemmy.world :/ sorry guys.
