No, this is not why Russia needs to win.
Russia is just as bad as they’ve ever been. They think North Korea, Communist China, Cuba and Iran are wonderful countries aligned with good and right.
Further if you recall they devised a postwar strategy against us (America) to strategically work within to weaken erode us morally as a people, and they succeeded. At the same time they worked the plan, they also sit back on their high horse and criticize the very decay they helped foment with willing liberals and democrats here.
And recently Russian efforts to rehabilitate Stalin’s legacy were demonstrated again in occupied Lughansk. The Russians destroyed a monument to the victims of Stalin. The hammer and sickle flags are marching on.
There are no good guys in the world these days.
