My thoughts exactly. This should have been done in 2014, when the two provinces in the Donbass both decided by referendum that they wanted independence from Kiev. Under International Law, they had established grounds for independence. They wanted to decentralise away from the corruption. For their pains they were shelled and villified in the press.
Putin is the first to recognise them: They are celebrating in the streets with flags and fireworks. Those poor people were desperatly hoping for a sign of recognition.
Also, Kiev bastards wanted them to join NATO and the EU. NATO manifested itself with some of biggest corruption ever, through the NGOs that came with the energy sector. Nuland handing out cookies to the protestors was just a final straw. Hunter Biden has a lot to answer for: where did all that tax-payer money go? Into a quisling's pocket? In exchange for what?? The Russians in Donbass can see that clearly. The Bidens may already be on a wanted list over there.
Putin has shown so much restraint when the whole thing went genocidal, and now he is acting as the most pragmatic problem solver. Those people want to govern themselves. Russia will make sure they are not killed in the process. End of.
