Nope, Russia did not "invade" anyone because it interfered with a war on the territory of the two independent republics who ASKED Russia to interfere. Russia did not touch Ukraine, it confronted UKRAINIAN ARMY on the DPR and LPR territory. You have to revisit the Geneva Convention and the international law. Who cares whether Ukraine "recognizes" or does not recognize the refusal of the Donbas to participate in Russophobia. Russia never invaded anything, it is fighting the UKRAINIAN JUNTA, not Ukrainian people. Popularity of fascist regime does not serve as its justification.
