“Putin will be seen as liberator of Russian speaking people in Ukraine”
Only according to press beholden to Putin, NOT to any majority in Ukraine.
“Whoever is causing the mischief there”
LOL, as if the “whoever” is not Putin!!!!
If I were an ethnic Russian living in the liberated areas, I’d look at Putin as a savior. Ukranians there likely view him a bit different.
Putin does not care about MAJORITY of Ukrainians. He only cares about the Russian speaking faction in Ukraine.
