Kleptocracy is what we and the Europeans are evolving into as well except using the central banks. As with Russia it is a separate problem, separate from Russian nationalism. I don’t actually know (or care) how to solve Russian nationalism in countries like Ukraine, but I do know that we can’t fix it.

The West is not morally equivalent to Russia, or China, or Iran, or North Korea. Relativism like this is tired old leftist trash, as if we should not mind the Russians killing people and preparing for war against us because "we are no better."

I don't know what you mean by this, but I suspect it is very stupid.

Russian nationalism is not the problem in Ukraine. Russia is the problem in Ukraine. Only a minority in the East and South support separatism. The conflict itself has been in the works since 2006, with the current Russkie terrorist leaders receiving leadership and guerrilla training as far back as back then, with the stated goal of creating a independent Pro-Russian enclave in Ukraine.
