I just transported a group of Czechs in a van. The spoke a bit in English, and discussed Ukraine. Their take was, “there is nothing that Ukraine did or did not do, to cause Russia to invade. Russia wanted to expand its borders.” That was their opinion.

Siberia is underpopulated. Why not move there and develop the region? A lot of natural resources. Think of it like Alaska in USA.

Do we have any confirmation of this or is the UK Daily Mail making up news again.

++++++++ Truth! Putin wanted to expand his Tsarist borders. He was alone in this or just about all alone. His inner circle thought, Ukraine? Who needs the headache. They thought, I just want to make more millions and be with my hot young mistress, on my yacht preferably.

Maybe they should have watched “Donbass: 8 years of War,” on YouTube. It’s a documentary by a French journalist filmed in 2015 showing the daily shelling in the Donbass area that killed over 14,000 ppl over 8 years. Ppl were living in their basements for months because of it, even tho they had apartments and homes. They were treated like dogs by the Azov battalion with the authorization of the Ukrainian govt. Ukraine has a lot to answer for. I find it ironic that the entire country is now suffering the same way as ppl in the Donbass have for years now.

‘told him Ukrainians would welcome invasion’ -— well, in that case, since he was wrong, it’s just packup and go home now... right?

That’s what I meant by wanting to ‘put the band back together’. Restore or as close as possible the Imperial 1914 borders.

I hope Putin learns not to trust Biden when Biden gives him a green light to invade another country.

You do know the CIA has a correspondent on staff at the Daily Mail don’t you?
