Original Note:
The poster claims that Ukraine "started" the current ongoing war in Ukraine. This is demonstrably false. Russia itself started the 2022 phase of the war. Direct from the Kremlin: http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/67843 From Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_conducting_a_special_military_operation The 2014-2022 phase first became a hot war due to Igor Girkin's actions. https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2014/11/21/russias-igor-strelkov-i-am-responsible-for-war-in-eastern-ukraine-a41598
