Just tried to be nice, I could've said hi ukrainian multi troll

Thats what Russia planned to do all along is actively doing in all parts of Ukraine it illegally invaded if you haven't noticed.

Just remove yourself, you are pathetic teen turning debates he knows he cannot win into feces throwing contest "for the luls"
SMH

you're strawmanning me, i never said or implied those wars are ok. the only "flaw" here is you trying to justify russia's war by dishonestly pretending i suggested other wars are ok. if you knew anything about me you'd know that i've been one of the harshest critics of american / western imperialism (i know, you don't know imperialism exists, just ignore the term then) - but that does in no way make russia's slaughtering of innocent ukrainians any better. the whole world, INCLUDING russia, agreed to ukraine's borders, including crimea and donbass - so stop pretending russia's invasion is any more justified than mexico attacking the US in order to reclaim previously mexican territory and liberate ethnic mexicans...

They are both authoritarian regimes.
The most disappointing thing is the complacency of Russians to allow Putin the type of unquestionable power. Enough people did well enough to not question Stalin 2.0

Agree. Wasn't Sarkozy the one who returned France to NATO full membership in 2009 and lo and behold 2011 came.

For anyone interested, you can find the declassified documents on NATO expansion in the national security archive. The documentary "Donbass" is a good look into the situation eastern Ukrainians were experiencing. Graham Phillips is a good resource for information on the current situation in eastern Ukraine as well.

I'm here since 2010 unlike you and I never had a multi account.

You're just a dishonest shit multi, you do honest ukrainians no favor, lol

that narrative has been debunked a million times, you're just not intelligent enough to accept FACTS that don't fit your propaganda narrative.

NATO doesn't actively expand. it doesn't look for nations and invites them to join. it's a defensive military pact, not an economic union. sovereign nations can APPLY to join, and they have to fulfil a whole bunch of criteria in order to do so.

the ukrainian PEOPLE have decided they want to associate with the west. it's their right to do that, they are a sovereign nation. they realised that western democracies provide their people with freedoms and prosperity, opposed to russia's authoritarianism and poverty. history does NOT give russia the right to determine who other nations are allowed to associate with. yes, you can argue that russia thinks that, and i'm sure many in russia genuinely do, but that does not make it a valid argument.

They are but China is nowhere near as vertical as Russia is. China has answers to what it will be after current leader and next 3 leaders that follow, Russia does not.
Its very true that letting Russia "officially" get away with landgrab will only lead to push the constraints even further as it pours its resources into its military and catches its breath domestically speaking. The rampant corruption doesn't help but the gears are grinding with scapegoats and new appointments every few weeks.
