If pootin isnt trying to take over Ukraine, then why did he invade them?
Ukraine had a civil war for 7 years, Russia said stop, Ukraine said mind your own business, Russia asked the US "Will you send troops to Ukraine if we invade?" the USA said "No" and Russia invaded. you can read about this in the 1st post in this thread or in the old Russia / Ukraine Thread.
Did more Ukraine or Russians leave their country at the start of the war?
its estimated now that 15M ppl left Ukraine since the start of the war. Ukraine was invaded by Russia. ergo, more ppl left Ukraine then Russia. When a country gets invaded, people flee.
