You mean RUSSIA isn’t trying to take the whole country for “gain”
——-
Vlads intentions and goals were clearly spelled out from day one. He is much like Trump, putting his citizens first. I suggest you read his speeches- he is accomplishing everything he stated- No NATO, a neutral Ukraine, and destruction of the Ukie Neo- Nazis.
I suggest you get used to the outcome, the ethnic Russian provinces and Crimea stay with the Russian Federation….” Unfortunate “ NATO and the West suffer a black eye for their meddling in foreign affairs, a huge lesson to be learned.
Putin is attempting to close the door on Russia’s Marxist past. At last 3 Times in the last century have Marxists betrayed Russia and Ukraine
In WWI, Trotsky and Lenin gave Poland and Ukraine to Germany, to focus on their own communist revolution. The German army occupied Crimea and went as far East as Rostov-on-Don
In WWII, Stalin’s deal with Hitler again brought the German Army to Ukraine’s border, giving them the ideal invasion route
In the 1950s Kruschev gave Ukraine administrative control over Crimea, which was never Ukrainian, to appease powerful politburo members from industrial Donbas and Kiev
NATO is using this marxist legacy to play the same century-long game of destabilization of Russia via control of Ukraine. Regardless of whether you support it, or not - Putin and anyone who might replace him, will NEVER allow this to succeed.
DC Neocons should be prepared to fight a hundred-year war. Two years into their project, and there aren’t many Ukrainian men left. Next up will be German and French men, and after that, Americans will be needed to fight. Will they ever be honest with the American public about this?
Oh, how many of his now dead citizens did Putin put first?
