      DPR, LPR, and Crimea were Russian for most of the history of Russia and Ukraine, and are still majority ethnic Russian. Ukraine’s “sovereign” state is only legitimate in its native territory. The above regions have all voted that they’d rather be apart of Russia.

      Meanwhile the US annexed Hawaii and ignored a petition by the vast majority of Native Hawaiians to stay independent because… Because. It was because they’re not white isn’t it?

        And Finland belonged to Sweden for 600 years before Russia took it. Are Sweden allowed to invade and annex Finland? Of course not. And great voting lol. Vote yes or risk being shot.

            Well for those 600 years they were Swedes. So I guess? Anyway, so Sweden could potentially claim the parts with a Swedish majority at least?

            Haha yes, and Russia penalizes not participating.

              What deluded thinking, with such line Ukraine would even not exist since all of them would be Poles or Russians, you’re either the most ignorant man on Earth or are pointelssly trolling.

              Haha yes, and Russia penalizes not participating.

              Again practically impossible nonsense without any proof.

        have all voted

        You don’t mean the ballot after the Russian invasion by any chance?

        Meanwhile the US annexed Hawaii

        I don’t know anything about this, but this seems to be entirely unrelated.

          If the US is to have any right criticize Russia’s annexation of the DPR, LPR, and Crimea, it should free Hawaii and all other Indigenous lands. Otherwise it is sitting in a pool of blood while calling Russia for having blood on their hands.
