Manchu Communard reaction to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine

As a result of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, relations between the Manchu Commune and Russian Federation have soured. It has resulted in a diplomatic crisis between the two countries in which Russia once again became a major player in the Manchu Communard Turmoil, effectively restarting the Manchu-Russian Schism. The Manchu Commune has recognized the problems Ukraine has as important to note, but has spoken out against the full-scale invasion.
== Pre-invasion ==
=== Recognition of Donetsk & Luhansk ===
Three days before Russia began invading Ukraine, the Russian Federation official recognized the Donetsk People's Republic and Luhansk People's Republic on 21 February 2022. Like the Republic of Cuba, Ansar Allah, and many other countries, the Manchu Commune declared the recognition of these countries as a necessary and good thing. On 22 February 2022, Donetsk and Luhansk were both recognized as independent by the Manchu Commune.
== Start of the invasion ==
On 24 February 2022, the Russian Federation sent troops into Ukrainian territory and Russia began attacking Ukrianian cities. This was declared the '2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine' by the international community. On this first day of the invasion, the Manchu Commune recognized the military conflict as 'Russia's Special Military Operation', standing on the side of Vladimir Putin and declaring Ukraine a 'neo-Nazi state'.
== Condemnation of the invasion ==
On 25 February 2022, the Manchu Communard government realized that Russia's military operations in Ukraine were actually an invasion. The Manchu Communard government then condemned the invasion and announced Vladimir Putin's actions illegitimate. However, the Manchu Commune refused to place sanctions on Russia.
== Refusal to sanction Russia ==
On 27 February 2022, the United States diplomat to the Manchu Commune demanded the Manchu Commune sanction Russia. As to not harm Russian civilians by causing starvation, the Manchu Commune refused to place any sanctions on Russia. Later that day, World War III broke out between the US and the Manchu Commune over the American invasion of Iran.
== Military clashes in Siberia ==
Main article: Manchu incursion into Siberia
On 4 March 2022, the Manchu Communard Armed Forces attacked Russia for its invasion of Ukraine, capturing the Russian city of Vladivostok in Siberia. However, in order to not escalate the diplomatic crisis, the Manchu Communard government apologized and withdrew its troops from Siberia. Afterwards, the Manchu Communard government agreed to pay reparations for the incursion to Russia.
== Supplying of the Russian Armed Forces ==
On 1 April 2022, the State of Japan launched an invasion on the Kuril Islands controlled by Russia. Japan argued this didn't violate their constitution orWorld War II treaties because Japan and Russia were technically "already in a state of military war". The Manchu Commune responded by declaring Japan's invasion illegal. In order to fight the Japanese invasion, the Manchu Commune began supplying the Russian Armed Forces. While the majority of these supplies were used to fight Japan as intended, Vladimir Putin redirected some of these supplies to the invasion of Ukraine.
