“Because in 2024, Ukraine is no longer facing Russia. Soldiers from North Korea are standing in front of Ukraine. Let’s be honest. Already in Ukraine, the Iranian ‘Shahedis’ are killing civilians absolutely openly, without any shame,” said Zaluzhny, adding that North Korean and Chinese weapons are flying into Ukraine. Zaluzhny urged Ukraine’s allies to draw the right conclusions. “It is still possible to stop it here, on the territory of Ukraine. But for some reason our partners do not want to understand this. It is obvious that Ukraine already has too many enemies. Ukraine will survive with technology, but it is not clear whether it can win this battle alone,” he said.

    It was never Khrushchev’s to ‘gift’ after Stalin ravaged the population for geopolitical reasons.

    Ukraine was more loud mouth whiny bitches over “holomodor” than genuine victims relative to other USSR members. Western nazification of Ukraine started with UN manipulation to celebrate their non-victimization, and reinforce “Stalin bad” narrative. Stalin, during a global famine had to make decision on how to deal with extortionists.

    Tartars

    Opening up a history book in order to find more people/ghosts who should share your hate, to start a discussion on reparations, has to be viewed cynically as intentionally divisive rather than productive. Tartars where in the apartheid outgroup of US nazification 2014 coup.

    signed agreements of mutual peace, affirmed borders (including then semi-autonomous Crimea as part of Ukraine), and confirmed equal rights for all.

    Exactly. Changing that path required political interference for nazification motivated by ever more distant history.

    Russia cannot seriously claim other nation states as a required ‘neutral buffer’ whilst they themselves seek a return to empire. If the anxiety is truly about foreign invasion, then why wasn’t the border fortified AT ALL before? Finland and Sweden respected that request for neutrality for decades - and Russia proved that political norms, memorandums of understanding, and treaties were worthless - NATO membership is the best bet of territorial integrity against Russia.

    What you project as Russia’s past is the US present. It is only extreme corruption for colonial subservience that explains anchoring to a declining empire in order to become its sacrificial pawn and dependence on Empire’s demonic evil. Humanizing the US, and its hypocritical rules based world order (ICC inclusive), brings US threats to annihilate their allies dependent upon them, when enthusiasm for their genocidal operations is lacking. The US led nazification of Ukraine was always an intentional plan to suicide the nation.

    Absolutely, Russia should understand the reality of US evil and demonism, and defend accordingly.

      You’re on tankie bingo speed run - genocide denial, USSR was always right, anything I don’t like is CIA/Nazis, everything is active measures/color revolutions not populist uprising, cynical claims to defend human rights whilst promoting pan-nationalism, aneurism world salad posed as coherent thought, and the classic ‘great evil’ line parroted.

      Enjoy your block I’m done attempting a dialogue with you; you’ve dodged basic questions and cherry picked, refuted basic provable facts, and through this brought ZERO citation for any of your bullshit. Not everyone 100% buys the Nord explosion narrative or that there are 0 ultranationalists/neo-nazis in Ukraine, but goddamn you have either swallowed the Kremlin line wholeheartedly or are a sock puppet troll.
