Ukraine’s corruption is a legacy of the kleptocracy that arrived during the collapse of the Soviet Union, and Putin’s interference has always been about keeping that corruption in place... provided his crime syndicate can hold onto control over it.

The Donbass leadership is sponsored by Russian kleptocracy, and led by a guy who was in on one of the world’s biggest ever Ponzi schemes.

The Kremlin’s man in Kherson failed twice at the ballot box to event come in tenth... In polls of mostly pro Russian electorates. They knew he was a crook and a merc. That’s why the Kremlin installed him.

Every attempt Russia or Ukraine made to take power away from Kremlin installed racketeers, has been met with interference by Russia.

When Russia’s richest oligarch turned his back on corruption, invited the Big Four in to review the clean-up within his own business, pitched open democracy and the rule of law, Putin had him thrown in prison and his business empire stolen, then broken up and sold at pennies on the dollar to jis loyal mates.

When China tried to bid in an open auction for a Rusdian corporation Russia kidnapped the bidding proxy and frightened away other bidders allowing a Putin sponsored oligarch to pick it up at a fraction of the valuation.

Russia and its poodles like you are REALLY in no position to claim any moral high ground. Every charge you just laid on Ukraine and its sponsors is Little League; Russia’s corruption and kleptocracy and Nazi Germany homages are World Series.

yes, Putin raped Ukraine.

Perhaps the nuances of the English language can escape one compared to Ruski.

Putin said “I raped here then wanted to negotiate so I could do it again, but Ukraine refused to negotiate to let me rape her again “.

And you support that.

No leader of a nation is going to simply accept another nation coming along and annexing his nation’s territory.

That's a misrepresentation of the negotiation. The Russians were going to move back to pre-Feb24 positions in exchange for Ukraine's neutrality and presumably some Minsk-2 like arrangement for the Donbas.

The Ukies will never get a better chance to end the killing in their own country and they a corrupt meddlesome American administration and bloodthirsty neoliberal cheer leaders like you to thank for it.

Then I guess Mexico has a right to the southwest United
States too then nimrod.

I’ve seldom seen as blind a group as your moron on this
forum.

Some of the old Bush supporter squads came close.

Have fund being Putin’s neocons, and telling yourself you’re
the best Conservatives around if it makes you feel good.

Laughing at your nonsense makes me feel good.

Insult away...

Is that what your simple mind sees as analogous to the situation in Ukraine?

Much more likely would be Texas (or some other region) deciding its had enough with DC corruption/stolen federal elections and voting to separate...kind of like the Donbas did in 2014.

What will you dopey neoliberals do then, huh?

Another likely scenario would be Mexico petitioning future President Occasio-Cortez (stolen elections have consequences) for reparations and she decides to give away some part of the Southwest as a result...much like Stalin did with Crimea in 1954 .

How likely is it that the European elites your ilk sides with today are gonna object to that rebalancing of national equity?

What an adorable Potemkin facade picture !
Just so you know, Russia got a “no” for all its demands from China and India.
So... this picture is only a polite cosmetic.

Russia doesn't make "demands" on its business partners, that's strictly an EU/US behavior pattern.

Also bilateral trade with China alone is up 20% this year and growing.

Sounds like your full of merde Frenchie.

That is what the NATO/Gobalist proganda machine told you and you gobble it up over and over again "as a dog returns to his vomit".

Just because a country (Russia) hopes to have allies against a foe (NATO) does not mean they want to rebuild a soviet empire, that is pure MSM/ bullcrap to stir up public opinion to go kill the "enemy" ( when the TRUE enemy is right here in the Deep State bureucracy, deliberately causing inflation to milk more USD for the globalist interests),

the CIA helped put Zelenski in Ukraine to make Ukraine a racketeering politician money laundering operation. For decades we have been sending our soldiers to die in order to keep us dependent on foriegn oil and keep the USD on top as reserve currency (even WW2). Its the primary directive of the Military Industrial Complex and Russia is not in the Globalist NATO country club anymore, anyone like Russia who tries to sell oil in non USD gets the Mohammar Ghadaffi treatment, it's why the Bushes killed Saddam, why they got interested in Syria.

RAH RAH SIS BOOM BAH, go kill the "bad guys" so your kings and queens can stay in power over us

and history repeats the same old lines.

Simple mind...

At least you’re on the right topic. Once you’ve mastered it
you can slink back onto the forum and apologize for your
ignorant spell.

What takes place in the Ukraine is of no business to Russia
whatsoever.

What takes place in the U. S. is of no business to Mexico
as well.

Wrong...both countries have security and economic interests with their neighbors in the region.

What is true is that the US has no business meddling in Ukraine and Russia has no business meddling in Mexico....and the sooner you dopes understand that the better.

So far the only real allies you share with Vladimir are North Korea and
Iran.

Both China and India are distancing themselves from you two and
making public statements revealing they do not buy in.

Even Poopin’s own military is voting with it’s feet.

The CIA had nothing to do with putting the comedian Zelensky in. The previous guy, Poroshenko was the pro western candidate in 2019
