Russia doesn't want to annex Ukraine, and they have never stated as such. I don't know where you people got confused.

Have you told them that? Because they have already officially annexed 4 different oblast.....

[–] finderscult@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 months ago (4 children)

They haven't, they are securing territory in a war, which isn't annexation.

Right, they're even holding elections there!

[–] finderscult@lemmy.ml 5 points 5 months ago

They're over seeing elections held by a different government. I know you uke supporters hate facing reality but those are different countries now. Your guys did a genocide and the victims decided to be different countries instead of just dying.

They're certainly not holding elections in Ukraine, but the regions under Russian control very much did have elections.
