Ruthenians are attested as an ethnicity prior to the advent of Ukraine. Ukraine was given to a people based on where they lived

Taking it back is referred to as genocide and ethnic cleansing. Hope this helps

You’ve never read life and fate? You might as well be illiterate my good irishman

How 'bout some self-determination for the Donbas? :p

How 'bout some self-determination for Texas? :p

"Guys, guys! I know how we can kill Sontalak! We'll make 1000 accounts and powerlevel 8000 characters to level 10, then swarm him to death in waves! There's no way he could kill 8000 characters!"
^About how I expect this to go.

To be fair it doesn't sound all that different to how they zerged Germany 80 years ago with conscripts.

True, but it was much easier to train the average soldier back then.

And they had a MUCH larger population to pull from.

Ireland doesn’t have a tradition of independent statehood

Time to be subsumed by the UK?

AND determination. They were invaded and even though conscripts were forced into combat at gunpoint in Stalingrad as a whole the USSR was determined to punish Germany severely.

Fighting in Ukraine not so much lol.

Ulster made their choice and we should and do respect it.

The island had never been an independent and unified polity until 1917

If part of Ukraine should be Russian, all of Ireland should revert to the UK
