Sad. Regardless of what side you're on, Ukraine is sovereign. They gave up their nuclear missiles on exchange for sovereignty and protection from both Russia and the USA. It was Ukraine's sovereign right to join NATO even though I hate NATO. This IS a war crime.

I didn't say I support Ulraine as a country. I just said Putin is a piece of shit and a war criminal. What both sides are getting away with doing to the Ukrainian people is appalling. I'm aware of the fighting tactics being forced on them.
