“During a reactionary war a revolutionary class cannot but desire the defeat of its government.”
Yes. Which is why those of us who live in the West desire the defeat of NATO and its fascist Ukrainian proxy in the reactionary proxy war that they launched against Russia.

Yes they did and they were right to do so.

Because they recognized the real nature of the Ukraine regime and its purpose as a weapon of Western imperialism against Russia and against the people of the Donbass.
