    That was my point. Ukraine has been recognized worldwide as being its own country for quite some time now. So I don’t understand how the person I replied to said they compare what is happening with Taiwan, which is not universally recognized to be its own country, with what Russia is doing.

    Edit: unless I misread what they said… if they were meaning that Taiwan is a complicated situation when compared with what what is going on in Ukraine.

      Yeah I think you misread it, they are specifically saying you CAN’T compare because Taiwan is such a complex issue

      Ukraine was very black and white compared to it
