Except in the parts that are ethic Russians in the East and where you have seperatists that actually were fighting to break away from Ukraine. hahaha
It appears, that “collateral damage” goes all the way back to Vietnam, where our freedom and democracy bombs were also at work.
Look, I’m not even neccessarily against helping Ukriane, BUT do not pretend like we are the good guys here, that we’re doing this for some moral higher cause. We are breaking our promises to the Russians, we are doing things we would not tolerate ourselves, and the Russians have a reason to be nervous when a world power has the ability to set up shop in a neighboring country.
Finally, do not pretend like this will be without consequences. The Russians can return the favor, may it be selling or even giving arms to nations that we see as threats (example Iran), they can destabilize places that are alied with us, there are even consequences economcically for us (the embrago goes both ways), and this will push (major boost) BRICs along. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BRICS
I hope it was worth it.
