No they are not. If you spend a hour and learn what happened there, you'll see it's almost the same situation as in Syria. There is an official government and a few groups that fight for the territory (each of them has its own goals). Nobody wants to join Russia. They want their own regimes (land of Cossacks, Novorossia, the Ukrainian autonomy etc). Thus if Ukrainian separatists are Russian rebels, then trained and backed up by the USA Syrian separatists are
American rebels. So when another Islamist cuts a throat of some Christian in Syria or Iraq, I should say: "look American rebels did it again!"
