If you think there are lots of Ukrainian government supporters still living in the Donbas then you are delusional. The ones there were fled long ago.
You ignore how much prevents Ukrainians from migrating or evacuating temporarily Russian-occupied territories. There is a river with many bridges out, the roads are mined, and the Russians run human safaris hunting civilians. But sure, everyone could have gotten out.
You are also just spewing the standard Russian concern-trolling line about "Russian speakers in Ukraine".
You may be fooling yourself about being some kind of "unbiased" observer, but you aren't fooling anyone else.
NO, the sides are not even close to the same. Stop stanning for Russia
