Who still supports Russia?

[Ringo]

I am asking about today.

I think that if Mexico had the power, it would have done so long ago and would do so today.

Should Trump defend Texas?

 

[Litwin]

Should Trump defend Texas?

defend Texas? Did you know that the Moscow empire’s GDP is actually smaller than that of Los Angeles County, New York City, or the state of Texas—not combined, but each one separately?

 

[JoeB131]

Ukrainians say that is wrong.

Tell us all this. Texas is ethnically Mexican. Can Mexico invade Texas to do what Putin did?

Except Texas isn't ethnically Mexican. It's only 39% Hispanic.

 

[Robert W]

Because they are ethnically Russian.

Self-determination.

Ukrainians are not ethically Russians. Amazing you back Putin.

20% of the population of Ukraine is Ethnically Russia, you ****!

This is the whole problem here. When the USSR fell apart, many Russians were left outside of Russia.

And from 1990 to 2014, that was mostly fine. Russians were participating in the process, and their voices were heard.

Then in 2014, the Maidan Coup happened, and Russians decided they'd rather be part of Russia after that.

Even then, Russia didn't feel a need to intervene directly. They retook Crimea (which never should have been part of Ukraine to start with, it was only assigned to the Ukrainian SSR in the 1950s by Kruschev), and Russians in Luhansk and Donetsk set up their own governments.

It isn't really about "Putin", it's about what is a reasonable solution everyone can live with, even if they don't like it.

Your vile nasty temper shows up so often.
First, they lived in Ukraine because they loved Ukraine's system.
Last, when 80 percent are Ukrainians, you do not leave Ukraine like the South left the Union for which you hate your ancestor Democrats.

 

[Robert W]

You promote the Russian view. Also, you promote that 20 percent (your figure) are within their rights to control the 80 percent, yet you call me vile names.

 

[Robert W]

Except Texas isn't ethnically Mexican. It's only 39% Hispanic.

Yet you claimed here that Ukraine is 20% Russian yet belongs to Russia.

I lived in Ukraine from the age of 12 to 38, so you can take my information to the bank.
I lived in a city on the western side of the Dnieper River, in the city of Krivoy Rog. Population: 700,000. Practically 100% of the population spoke russian, read russian, and listened to the First TV channel from Moscow, also in russian.
Yes, the city published a newspaper in ukrainian, all the signs in the shops were in Ukrainian, you could buy books in ukrainian, but otherwise it was practically a russian city.
And that was the case in 80% of Ukraine. Much has changed since the collapse of the USSR, but even then russian was the predominant language, despite all the political attempts from Kiev.

On language. My American antagonist however does not get it that language does not decide. His case is people living in the USA and other places are English for speaking English.
Ukraine is decided Ukraine due to the fact it's government and people call it Ukraine.

No, they didn't live in the Ukraine because they loved the Ukraine's "system".

They live in Ukraine because when the USSR existed, the internal borders were arbitrarily drawn.

The South left because a few wealthy people wanted to own slaves. So did Brigham Young, when he tried to make Utah a slave state.

The Donbas wants to leave because they don't feel represented by the Kleptocrat Comedian of Kyiv.

 

[JoeB131]

Yet you claimed here that Ukraine is 20% Russian yet belongs to Russia.

I didn't claim the Ukraine belonged to Russia, but the Crimea and Donbas, which are predominately Russian, do.

You clearly don't understand the history.

Democrats were the wealthy class you talk about. Why didn't you remain a republican I ask you.

 

[Dr.Destructo]

Like any country with people who just want to live, be happy, and not worry about the atrocities of corrupt government............
I support the Russian people, NOT the Russian government.

Putin flat out stole Crimea.

I support both.

 

[Robert W]

Russia has the corrupt government.

 

[JoeB131]

Because the Republicans saw the Racists leave the Democratic Party in 1968 and said, "Come on in, we still hate N****rs as much as you do!!!"

Putin flat out stole Crimea.

No. Putin liberated the Russians who lived in Crimea.

Here's the key thing. Crimea was not part of the Ukrainian SSR before 1954. Before that, it was considered part of Russia in the former Soviet structure.
