This video is fake too my brother.Harkov is badly damaged indeed.Mariupol too.Russians destroy a lot,but made anything possible to not target civilians.If they don't care for the innocent the war was over about a week.Ukranians blowns up most of their infrastructure for blaming for that evil russians,weep for guns,wich they sell to anyone they want.A big Game.All around Bucha-fake.absolute.Russian forces withdrawn before four days-movies shows no corps on the street.Then enter ukranian spec.operation units-all along the way people shot dead with tied hands?And russian leave the bodies just like that?God they have mobile crematoriums used for their soldiers to quickly incenerate them and send his ashes in home.The win of Zelenski is,that he won the media war with all his weepings.Putin acts-don't talk.Just how they teach him in KGB.Yes,he is a tyrant,yes he got blood on his hands....but he is elected with majority so many times and huge part of russians are behind him.Cause they know 90 of Elzin-Russian mafia rages across the country and was scary and hard to live.Here was hell 90 can't even imagine what was in Russia then.Sorry-but this will be eventually future of Ukraine after the war.A devasted country and Ukrainian mafia is huge and very powerful.We walk this way more than 30 years and still is shit here.The way to democracy,which in many terms is democracy only on pappers.
You are absolutely right
We all know who Putin is, but Zelensky/ Ukr govmt is not better at all.
He is Smart, tho. He saw a problem coming from all that nazis he had in the army. What did he do, then? He left them to fight in Mariupol, a city where a hugh part of population is Russia friendly, a city surrounded by Crimea and Dombass, basically a lost city.
Now, what did he got?
1- Azov and other nazi groups are very brave soldiers. They have killed a lot of russians and kept the russian arrmy busy for months.
2- they lot have been killed or made prisoners by the russians. So they are not nazis anymore, they are heros now. Brilliant.
I have not doubts about who is the agressor here, Russia is.
But pretending that NATO moving east further and further has nothing to do whit the current situation is just plain stupid.
Psychology is key into international affairs:
russians are proud people, as proud as US citizens. They can very well remember the shame of Yeltsin. They remember, just after they defeat in Cold War, fucking Gorvachev doing tv comercials for Pizza Hut, for fuck sake.... can you even imagine american people having to see Nixon or Ford advising on their tvs some kind of viet rice brand, just after their defeat in Vietnam??
Like we wish fair play for sport games, but somehow, we are fine with our politicians doing shit all over the world and buy every kind of bullshit from our govmts before think that, perhaps, truth does not belong only to us.
Putin is guilty of invading Ukraine, but just weeks before he asked for them not to join NATO. I know Ukraine is a sovereign country to do wathever they want. As sovereign as Cuba was when they wanted to hold russians nukes in the Island, and kennedy didn't allow that to happen, WWIII was closer than ever, but no one called Kennedy a new Hitler.
We got to respect other countries' position, because no respect means no peace.
