“There is no good guy in this mess.”
Then answer my question: Why is Putin the bad guy and who told you so?
The Ukraine’s government is as crooked as a dog’s hind leg, and Putin INVADED A FOREIGN COUNTRY, STARTING A WAR! He actually used the identical excuse that Hitler used to invade and take over Czechoslovakia (protection of an ethnic minority).
Like I said, there is NO GOOD GUY here. Why you can’t see that is confusing. Ukraine is run by a bunch of crooks, and Putin is a bully.
For what it’s worth, I am of Ukrainian descent. While it gives me no insight into the situation, it does raise my interest and I may look a little further than some others.
