USSR never admitted defeat and certainly did not internalize it, and here we are again. People from East Germany have been fracturing Germany since day one of the wall coming down, most likely part of a long term Russian strategy. You are either an appeaser or supporting the other side. Whatever the case, you are misguided unless being paid to espouse these thoughts to the unsuspecting.
It is pityful to watch a Putin Puffer, like yourself, squirm because most Americans know Russia, under current leadership for what it is with the same intents as back in the 70s, and still bound to fail at it. Tuff Sh#t for you comrade. There will be no return of a united Soviet, taking over nearby countries in Europe or exerting military power around the globe. Go outside, bum a cheap Sobranie Black Russian smoke (as is custom) and a shot of Rusya vodka out of your desk to ease your pain.
These dire warnings and other forms of fearmongering got old and tired really fast.
Yeltsin was leader of the Communist Party from 90-91 in the "Supreme Soviet", and president from 91-99 how was he replaced by Bush who was long out of office by then?
You make sub-moronic fool of self, he's done nothing to de-escalate the situation, indeed, he has called for regime change and opened up an economic war upon Russia and this is on top of both Biden and Obama starting this war way back in 2013/14 by sponsoring a coup, and then sending us to train Azov Nazi's in asymmetrical warfare fighting, even as Azov Nazi's were waging an ethnic cleansing attempt upon the Donetsk region where population is overwhelmingly Russian! Russia did not start the war, the two worst presidents in US history did, all so the US senate could launder their ill gotten gains through the Ukraine, in this war Russia wears the white hats!
Vlad did not have to attack, and does not listen to US presidents when he want to do something. Joe could have told Ukraine to roll over and play dead for the bear at the back door, but I wouldn't and neither did he. If Ukraine want to fight to preserve their independence from the invading Russian, trying to take over their country a few miles at a time, they deserver our support. If they want to try to take Alaska back, are you in favor of rolling over and giving it to them?
You have no military experience or understanding so you are among the least qualified of people to comment on it.
The right move would have been to not cancel the lethal aid to Ukraine shortly after taking office that was helping Ukraine fortify itself against invasion by creating a significant deterrent to a Russian invasion.
No, what he did do was offer Zelensky a ride out of the country instead of pouring lethal aid into the country.
A near unanimous vote by the parliament to remove Poroshenko in accordance with their constitution and laws does not equate in any way to a coup, much less one engineered by the US.
No. You leave out parts on purpose. You are talking about the June 18, 2021 announced freeze of a package put together but not shipped. Russia had put 100,000 troops near the border for what it said at the time was, supposedly for a Zapad military exercise, an exercise held with Belarus every few years. In April Kremlin Defense ministry said they were planning to withdraw troops from the region. A Summit with Vlad was held the same week, but was more discussion of cyberattack launched from inside Russia on US business and probing of US infrastructure, than about Ukraine. From what I understand the package was kept together in a wait and see kind of thing. I got no problem with this administration's diplomatic approach, last summer. Remember, Ukrainians were saying as late as December, they did not think Russia would actually invade, that it was just more saber-rattling.
If I meet a Democrat sometime soon, I'll ask one.
I haven't revised anything what I stated is 100% factual. His approval numbers went into the negative starting in November and didn't begin to improve until he finally got on the right side of supplying Ukraine the aid they badly needed AFTER the invasion had begun.

You tunnel vision it to cause and effect. That is where you made your mistake. Lethal aid resumed and arrived Jan 22, 2022 and NATO allies that had not been supplying lethal aid started at same time.I haven't revised anything what I stated is 100% factual. His approval numbers went into the negative starting in November and didn't begin to improve until he finally got on the right side of supplying Ukraine the aid they badly needed AFTER the invasion had begun.
He said we'd do nothing about an incursion but that their might be some sanctions if he went beyond that. That is a greenlight.
The buildup of forces was an obvious prelude to invasion to anyone with a modicum of intellect.
