Interesting article that talks about the similarities between now and 1938, and the sort of lessons we can learn from history.

    The US/UK supporting the Russian Czar during the Civil War isn’t an invasion.

    Yeah just like how this is special military operation!

      There is no civil war in Ukraine and Putin recognizes Zelensky as the legitimate head of state. So not the same at all.

        But the two republics are also recognized and did ask for help as well, hence the SMO- and idk what you would consider 2014-2022 in ukraine but civil war would be a fair description in my opinion.
