This is narrative of the MSM Kremlin.
Ukraine was invaded by the Russian expansionist power (Putin's party objective is to conquer all the old Russian areas, this is openly spoken in Russia; look at Chechnya, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine…).
Russia promoted and armed a terrorist uprising in the donbas. Terrorist separatists…
Kremlin stooges, ex-USSR, ex-KGB, Yukanovich and Poroshenko, pro-Russian, pro-separatist, pro-Burisma, pro-ROSATOM.
Ukrainian patriots are fighting to defend their homes from this invasion.
