      You mean how Yanukovich’s snipers have been shooting the protesters at the Maidan square? Yeah, sure, that one as well.

          Very sad event indeed. But I don’t know what’s your point. Are you trying to justify a war which killed tens of thousands of people by an unfortunate event killing 48 people?

            I assume you didn’t read the second one, about your claim over the snipers. Go back and read again. And who started the Donbas war?

              Katchanovski is known for his pro-Russian bias and his work isn’t accepted by mainstream scholars.

              And who started the Donbas war?

              Mostly Russian “vacationers”.

                Please elaborate on what’s wrong with the article. Proclaiming “biased bias” and quoting mystical nameless “mainstream scholars” ain’t scientific.

                And also explain who those Russian vacationers are who managed to singlehandedly declare two independent republics and a separatist movement. Might as well give me your Fantasyland timeline of the war against the DPR and LPR, because you are quite vague in everything you say and I can’t read your mind.

                  I myself am not an expert on the subject, but other experts don’t seem to accept his work.

                  How about you study what happened yourself? Read e.g. Hybrid Warriors which is not a bad account on the events, even though it’s also Putin apologetic.
