Not only it... What about your Biden and Ukraine?In fact, Western support of Muslim terrorists in Chechnya, and straight aggression against Serbia, were perceived by Russians as an aggression against Russia. Therefore West destroyed Miloshevich, but promoted Putin.I get what you are saying (i think) but "Western aggression" has been more of an excuse than a reality for quite some time now. Shitty countries all over the world love to blame some foreign foe for The People not being free.Russians have never known or accepted anything other than autocrats. A western style democracy is probably not possible in a country that demands strongman leaders.
At least, we never know time without western aggression against Russia. So, we elect chief commander, not president.
When it was unique time without western aggression at begin of 90th, democratic Eltsin was good for Russia.
