I don't know what Ukraine and Ukranians will be if they become part of the EU, but I think they earned the right to try.
Hopefully, they'll become Russian via Ukraine ceasing to exist.

NATO had absolutely zero reason to exist after December 26, 1991 with the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Russia has had several treaties with NATO guaranteeing no eastward expansion trampled on, that now wants to park nukes on Russia's borders, and you're trying to call those of us who actually know what the fuck is going on 'traitors'? Nah, fuck off with that.

Not because of any merit, just because it's really big, not even your dictators could genocide all the undesirables.
The UK is multi-ethnic due to conquering the world and allowing Commonwealth citizens in. The US has genocided Native Americans and bought a lot of slaves.
Is that what you mean by merit? Elaborate, please.

Your dictators can´t even handle Greece (6mio). Its debt crisis has not been solved.

I couldn't care less about what the far right wankers think. They're the same people gushing over Putin, therefore they're traitors.
So you condemn your own Nazis who are against Putin, but you praise Ukrainian Nazis who oppose Putin. Makes total sense.

I want to see a rocket hitting that supermarket.
I don't care what you want to use for masturbating to.

So you call Putin a dictator. Will you only refer to the Russian president as president once the Russian people elect a ski instructor to your liking?
When Russian people elect someone who doesn't lock up or kill anyone who tries to stand in opposition.

Putin is done as far as the west is concerned. He is destroying Russia, lying on the internet about how great he is won't change anything. All these deals with the east are bad for Russia.

Anyway, we'll see how this ends up in 10 years when China owns Russia & all Russians are slaves to the CCP.

Excellent example of "whataboutism". Greece will eventually work out. If Russia stopped trying to steal Ukraine and making up shit to justify it, Ukraine could join the EU and everyone will be happy except the Kremlin. Who are triggered by a country on their door step that they want to own, could show Russian citizens what life is like outside of their dictatorship.

Russia-Ukraine war: Moscow politician gets 7 years for denouncing war​


Well this shows you there is no freedom of speech in Russia,

Judge Olesya Mendeleyeva ruled he had carried out his crime "based on political hatred" and had misled Russians, prompting them to "feel anxiety and fear" about the military campaign.

Why is Putin not in the dock, the lies he's told is on video. he's responsible for the deaths of 1000's of people.

What a close call, now that Putin doesn't shut down Nordstream 1 anyway
But lets see when winter comes, if he will use energy as a weapon, as they say
in the Eu parlament.

And we Europeans will need to import gas from Usa, and other places around the world.
The only good thing you can say about climate change in this circumstances, is that the winters
will be warmer, so hopefully we are less dependent on gas

People get angry at me when I state that Ukrainians are also Russians.

Now Zelensky said the same. He wants to reclaim the name because he sees Ukraine as the rightful heir to the Kievan Rus. One of his advisors, Alexey Arestovich, suggests the name "Rus-Ukraine".

Amazing! It is similar to how the Republic of China sees itself as the rightful heir to all of China.

I have followed Darya Dugina's assassination, and I have an observation that isn't really important in the scheme of things, but it's something I doubt will be much mentioned. Alexander Dugin was probably the intended target, because he was going to board the blown car and traded positions with his daughter in the last minute. Dugin is a political theorist whose ideas align with the russian government's, but he isn't directly connected to the government. Dugina was a journalist and political commentator, a media figure who appeared on russian television to analyse the Ukraine invasion. Yet, the news titles don't say "Darya Dugina killed", they say "Daughter of Alexander Dugin" or "Daughter of Russian ideologue", like he's some known entity for the western public or she didn't have a personal existence of her own.
