TN – States “launch an unprovoked attack on Russian speaking Ukrainians.”
However according to TN (24-01-23 @ 12.45pm), ethnic cleansing of Crimean Tatars was “Necessary given the existential crisis unfolding at the time and the groups’ collaboration with the enemy.”
Exactly the same justification the Ukrainian government is using to explain their actions regarding ethnic Russians.
Presumably, TN thinks that the undemocratic overthrow of the Russian Constituent assembly in 1917-18 by the Bolshevik coup d’etat was justified, whilst the undemocratic Maidan revolution was not.
Yet more evidence of TN’s inconsistency and anti working class sentiment
