[[Crimea]] held a referendum and rejoined Russia rather than live under an illegal government. However, Russia did not accept the results of the [[Donetsk]] and [[Lugansk]] referendums in the Don River Basin, collectively known as Donbas. Donetsk and Luhansk declared independence from [[Kyiv]] and became known as the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics. The Kyiv regime tried to retake the two separatist provinces.

An email sent from [[Hunter Biden]] to his business partner [[Devon Archer]] on April 13, 2014 contained information from a classified [[State Department]] memo one week before Joe Biden visited Ukraine to meet the then prime minister [[Arseniy Yatsenyuk]].

It will also result in further destabilization of UK nationally and for whatever govt is in power. And the US will respond with even stronger sanctions. Those sanctions will threaten the tenuous support of the [[EU]] which does not have the political will to incur steep energy price increases.”<ref>https://nypost.com/2023/01/22/theres-no-hiding-bidens-fright-over-classified-document-scandal/</ref> }}
