This is the first time I've ever heard a Russia apologist even try to call it "Ukraine's war". Almost like it's a surprise Ukraine fought back when Russia invaded.

Even Putin was honest enough to call it an invasion and limited his lies to attempts to justify it.

Yes retaliation for sanctions can be expected. But Russia is still the bad actor here.

Call a Russia apologist someone else.

As stated, I support both supporting Ukraine and the sanctions.

That doesn't make our policy makers any less ridiculous and short sighted in their expectations.

In retrospect I suspect you might be a non-native English speaker? ("Call a Russia apologist someone else" would normally be written "Call someone else a Russian apologist").

In English "Ukraine's war" give the ownership of the war to Ukraine, making them responsible for it.

If this isn't your intent then good, and I apologize for calling you a Russian apologist.
