As America’s propaganda machine loves to spill it, the great ‘Ol United States of America is a beacon of Justice, Freedom, and the opportunity for Self-Actualization, hence it’s propagandist hatred of China’s treatment of the Uighurs.

Alright then, let us examine the facts as to how exactly the Donbas Region of Ukraine fared relative to the rest of Ukraine subsequent to the breakup of the old Soviet Union. Inclusive of the Donbas Region, Ukraine gained independence from the old Soviet Union in 1991. Well, what then ensued?

“The region’s economy deteriorated severely in the ensuing years. By 1993, industrial production had collapsed, and average wages had fallen by 80% since 1990 (Wikipedia).”

“Small strikes continued throughout the 1990s, though demands for autonomy faded. Some subsidies to Donbas heavy industries were eliminated, and many mines were closed by the Ukrainian government because of liberalising reforms pushed for by the World Bank (Wikipedia).”
