Among various reason for attacks like re establishment of soviet empire , novo russia , fighting gay lesbians , now this pre empted invasion to prevent genocide in future . No one should attack another country based on fortune teller advice
There's no fortune telling here, it's what the Ukronazis have themselves announced.
Socialism , communism both ideology of left spectrum . Communism cant happen in a democracy . But if you read my previous comment you ll realize , our policy makers left no coin unturned to destroy the economic life line of nation . Our economic policies were inspired by soviet , just like other nation in that era .
Socialism can be part of both democracy and communism, even fascism or any other form of govt, 'cause socialism has got nothing to do with the system of govt. Haven't you read India's preamble?
en.wikipedia.org
WE, THE PEOPLE OF INDIA having solemnly resolved to constitute India into a
SOVEREIGN SOCIALIST SECULAR DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC and to secure to all its citizens:
Socialism is enshrined in our constitution. It's why we have govt companies.
Before that color revolution event something happened . Putin visited Ukraine and advised Ukranians to vote for his nominee . That shd tell you abt the forces at play in Ukraine . It was population wanting to get away from soviet influence , get economically more connected with Euro Atlantic vs the one opposing it . Yes there is evidence that protests were funded by Eurpean American agencies , but at the end of the day which block invaded their country started bombing their cities and took over their land . Now if someone says what Russia doing is for its own national interest .. I wld nt say anything . But trying to project some universal morality at this point where 1 year of war has passed and 100s of thousands have died is no more valid .
All sides want their puppet installed in every single country on the planet. It's how things run.
Stop trying to defend Ukraine's actions, they go completely against Indian democratic principles. You do not subjugate your minorities in that manner no matter what.
The Verkhovna Rada has adopted a contentious bill on protecting the Ukrainian language. The draft law will now be… - Apr. 25, 2019. By Oleg Sukhov

What Ukraine has done is exactly the same as what the Sinhalese did to the Tamils in SL. Can you imagine the same thing happening in India with Hindi?
The article doesn't even cover the whole story. All positions of power must only have Ukrainian speakers, meaning if you speak broken Ukrainian, you can't stand for elections or hold public office. The official language is Ukrainian, so you can't converse with the govt in Russian. All election broadcast and campaign material must only be in Ukrainian. All information in public display, like advertisements, road signs, signboards etc must be only in Ukrainian. No public broadcast of Russian music, lol. Import ban of Russian books and media.
Even in healthcare Ukrainian is mandatory now. Meaning a patient must speak to hospital staff in Ukrainian, and if the patient desires to speak in Russian, it's up to the hospital staff to engage, lol. Restaurants, shops etc must speak Ukrainian, unless requested by the patrons. Meaning, if you and the shopkeeper are Russian, the shopkeeper has to only speak Ukrainian, and you have to specifically say you would like to speak in Russian, or the shopkeeper will get fined heavily.
Look at the rules in print media. Any Russian print media must have a Ukrainian translation provided. Meaning the media houses must pay for the translations themselves, and then print it even if no one buys it, so they have to eat up all the costs themselves. They have no chance of survival against Ukrainian media that don't have to bear these extra costs.
So the only avenues for Russian language in Ukraine is in private speech and religious rituals.
With just this move alone, Ukraine proved itself no longer a democracy. The minute the Maidan Revolution happened, where a democratically elected govt was illegally removed from power, it signalled the beginning of disenfranchisement of the Russian speakers.
More rules have been added to the law since it passed in 2019. So yeah, the people in Donbas are having none of that. I don't know how you are gonna argue against that.
What's funny is Zelensky came to power by championing for Russian language rights.
Zelensky supports Russian language, claimed he will resist the new law, wins election:
As Russian-speaking Volodymyr Zelenskiy leads in the presidential runoff, his challengers have made his mother tongue a subject of debate.
theworld.org
In a campaign video released less than two weeks before the decisive second round vote, Zelenskiy says in Ukrainian, “They divided us … but we are all Ukrainians … In the north, south, east, west and center … Ukrainian and Russian speakers … We are different, but so similar. We are uniting to move forward.”
Poroshenko bans the language after losing elections:
Ukraine's parliament approved a law on Thursday that grants special status to the Ukrainian language and makes it mandatory for public sector workers, a move Russia described as divisive and said discriminated against Russian-speakers.

Zelensky comes to power and bans more Russian:
Zelenskyy accuses the channels of spreading Kremlin-funded ‘propaganda’, drawing support in the US but ire in the EU.

This guy's not in power in Ukraine, there are other people running the show.
