As the White House continues to escalate tensions in/around Ukraine, in order to create the self-fulfilling prophecy of Joe Biden as the magnanimous savior of all things Ukrainian, Russian President Vladimir Putin now starts positioning his own leverage against the western geopolitical narrative.
Delivering a national address today, Russian President Putin announced Russia would recognize the eastern Ukraine regions of Donetsk and Luhansk as independent breakaway territories. “I deem it necessary to make a decision that should have been made a long time ago — to immediately recognize the independence and sovereignty of the Donetsk People’s Republic and Luhansk People’s Republic,” Putin said in his televised address.

Immediately following Putin’s remarks, the Joe Biden administration began organizing other allied governments to condemn Putin’s decision as a flagrant violation of the Minsk peace accords. The prior agreement of ‘limited political autonomy‘ paused a nearly eight-year-long regional fight in the Donbass region of eastern Ukraine. The people within the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of eastern Ukraine are favorable to Russia, supportive of Russia and do not align with the official government of Ukraine.
European leaders and the U.K. then vowed to trigger additional sanctions against Russia for Putin’s decision to support Donetsk and Luhansk as independent regions within Ukraine. However, the EU/UK did not outline what sanctions would be triggered, in part because the EU still wants to purchase energy from Russia, and in part because, well, meaningless prose is always the way the EU works.
This is, after all, a geopolitical exhibition of political theatre, you’ll see how below.
