Invasion of Donetsk and Luhansk has never been proven. Crimea, sure I will concede that. For the record, I don’t approve of it, even though Crimea has been under Russia’s control for hundreds of years, and was only given to Ukraine by Khrushchev in the 50s.

Yes. Some knowledge of history helps in these conversations. Crimea has been under Russian control in some form for hundreds of years and is the home of their most important naval installation. Under political pressure from the West, the felt that their position there was threatened.
Anyone who thinks America wouldn't do the same given the circumstances is mistaken. We're not the "good guys" in the world.

Russia don't exist for 'hundred of years'.
Why you people are repeating the nonsense?
