My recollection is that the fighting stopped by 2014, then Putin invaded from the north and tried to take Kiev by force, and failed.Rejoin with Crimea went fine. But DPR&LPR were attacked by Ukraine.
And when Ukraine attacked DPR and LPR, allied of Russia, it was equal to attack against Russian Federation itself. So, Russian actions are simply collective self-defense.
I have no clue why internal laws are criminal? Just the opposite. What examples are you referring to? Putin cancels election results as well as kills opposition leaders.From the Russian (and not only Russian) point of view, they are criminals. They violated international law (but unprovoked aggressions) and their internal laws (like, say, legalisation of MJ, homosexual "marriages" and cancelling the results of elections) looks like criminal.
If you think NATO has no military power you are mistaken. Some Russian leader said that US society was "decadent". Democrats are, Republicans are not. Please recall why the USSR broke apart, because of those ones and zeroes in bank computers.And this point of view leads you directly into WWIII. Actually, "Global South" see "West" as guys trying to play God, with no mineral or military resources to support their claims. Ones and zeroes in bank computers, as well as the hordes of lawyers and prostitutes are not "resources".
Not a master race, but the "world's cop", not by choice, but by necessity.And we know what we should do with those, who pretends to be the "master race".
Very bad idea, rethink that opinion.Of course no. Russia can defeat the USA, and the whole NATO. It might be gambling and the price of victory might be terrible, but we have pretty good chances to do it.
If people elect leaders, and they ask to join NATO, that is how democracy works.There were no any referendums about joining NATO, as far as I know. Nobody asked people of those countries if they want to join NATO. And Russia always ask people.
NATO countries are peaceful and cultured, and do not invade other countries. Those are facts, not lies.Plain lie & Plain lie.
Which country did NATO invade? Hint: none
Putin's evil allies are everyone's business. No one wants brutal dictators governing any country. Communism is a disease.Non of your business.
Now you're hallucinating. Capitalistic countries want to make business deals, not killing workers and consumers.Of course no. We would be in start officially discrimated and abused, and in the end - genocided. It were Western countries who started genocide of Russians.
True, if the dollar collapses that would be very bad for the US, which is why we elected Trump and Republicans. Russia's economy is not prospering, but its their choice, be wealthy, or be kulaks.For you - may be. Dedollarisation of the world economy will cause collapse of American economy. For Russia it is all pretty fine and getting better.
I only know what my own eyes see.You can't imagine how am I hurt because of your denialism of the obvious facts.
We don't kill Russians. We help Ukraine defend from Russian invasion. If Russia stopped the invasion no one would die.Actually, no. You agreed that you can discriminate and kill Russians, not we.
Putin is a dictator, he planned and ordered the failed invasion of Ukraine, so it is his personal project.Its not about Putin at all. Its not his personal project or something. There is only one way to avoid WWIII:
In Ukraine: denazification, demilitarization and neutral status.
In Europe: creating the system of the equal safety and equal rights, return of NATO's military infrastructure back to 1997 borders, end of discrimination of Russians. Denuclearisation of France and the UK and well as division of Germany might be useful, as well.
In the world: end of Pax Americana, returning to multipolar world system.
Ukraine is a sovereign country, there are no Nazis, Hitler is dead. NATO membership is being negotiated, maybe EU membership, they don't want to be in Putin's "sphere of influence".
Europe and NATO are not in Russia's "sphere of influence" so Putin cannot make any demands.
End Pax Americana? Does that refer to American foreign policy? Not sure what a "multi-polar" world looks like?
No world wars in 75 years is a good thing.
