Well Putin and his crew would have not started This war if those pesky freedom loving Ukrainian “Nazis” voted for Russia’s pet president in 2014. The Russians only wanted a compliant nation that supported Russia’s goals of of a free world. A world were all Russian Eastern Orthodox loving people can be told how to pray by the metropolitan out of Moscow.they would buy their energy from Russia without complaining. They would work in the military equipment plants that produce the needed parts for jet fighters, helicopters, and apc/tanks without price gouging the Russian government. They could mine the large lithium and other ore deposits than are in Ukraine.
There is so much the people of Russia and Ukraine could do together in a new utopia.
I try to refer to it as Muscowy rather than Russia.
Masterful example of sarcasm in your post :)
