The Ukrainians are valiantly fighting to free their country

LMBO, no no they're not. They were already free, until the empire engineered a coup in 2014 to overthrow their elected government and install a genocidal nazi regime. Russia is currently fighting to liberate ethnic Russians from the oppressive vassal state but also the Ukrainian people at large
