  1. Russia helps them in that regard by destroying infrastructure that was built in USSR

  2. Majority of Ukrainians speak Russian. And how exactly Ukrainian culture different from Russian? Kievan Rus was formed after Russian city Novgorod captured Kiev. Same dynasty that captured Kiev and former Kievan Rus' later called themselves Tsars of all of Russia

  3.  @JeroenvanHaren  I indeed don't care about internationally recognised things. I care about the will of the people who can choose future of their land. And eastern Ukrainian regions chose to become part of Russia

  4.  @occhamite  yeah, but same dynasty that ruled Kievan Rus later ruled Russia. If historians named this country Novgordian Rus - would you consider it to be Russia?

  5.  @occhamite  don't remember Britain and France being the same country for hundreds of years And Donbas wants to join Russia. Why shouldn't they? Ukraine never had their own nukes, those were Russian nukes with codes in Moscow. Ukraine sovereignty should have been respected also. But in 2014 Ukraine lost it's independence and sovereignity So whats the difference between Ukrainian and Russian culture? As a Russian, I met many Ukrainians, but I had no idea if they're Ukrainians or not before they told me. So maybe you can enlighten me

  6.  @occhamite  you haven't answered. What's the difference between Russians and Ukrainians? You're avoiding this question because you have no idea, because you wouldn't distinguish one from another if you met them too Can you also say that Donbas/Crimea were also under Ukrainian sway and were Ukrainian dominions like India to Britain? Because everything you said is just nonsense. People in all regions of USSR had the same rights, they weren't colonies, they were regions, no different from regions in your country One can also say that legal government on Kiev in 2014 was overthrown by lawless bandits from Right Sector. "Had Ukraine been equipped" - if they had a death star it would have been even easier for them. But it's kinda hard to outgun a country that outproduces entire NATO. But you're right, maybe they should have developed their country, instead of relying on someone else's money

  7.  @occhamite  Ukraine does has it's own language, tho half of it prefers to speak Russian. How can Ukrainian culture predate Russia if you have no idea what's the difference between Russian and Ukrainian cultures? The only difference you know is a language in western Ukraine, admit it and don't try to act like Russians and Ukrainians are different people "I don't believe it" - you don't need to believe it, you can try to find a single law in USSR that would take a person's nationality into consideration. Every region sent mobilised troops to Ukraine according to their population, it has nothing to do with race. No need in treating Russia by racist standards of your country. But yeah, poorer regions have more volunteers than richer regions, same goes for any country ever Pretty much all western media admitted that Russia makes at least 3 times more artillery shells than entire NATO. GDP has little to do with military production. The Russian military industry was created for war, western was created for profit. That's why the entire NATO struggles to scramble enough equipment for Ukraine to do anything of value

  8. ​ @mariaf.6601  Russia outproduces the entire NATO combined. What are you on about?

  9. According to the World Bank and IMF - Russian economy grows faster than any G7 member

  10.  @occhamite  same goes with Russia. What's the difference between Russian culture and Ukrainian? Same language (for Eastern half of Ukraine), culture, architecture, mindset, looks, religion, history etc. Can't think of any differences other than haircuts a few hundred years ago

  11. ​ @phaelox  by "Kremlin talking points" you mean reality? There's a reason why you couldn't dispute his points and you know that

  12. Like USA did in Baghdad. But unlike USA, Russia kills far more enemy soldiers than civilians

  13.  @mariaf.6601  in artillery shells, tanks, rockets and bombs

  14.  @mariaf.6601  I don't know about aviation ones, but Russia fires more rockets than USA makes patriot missiles. Russia also uses around 200-300 dumb bombs per day, while USA makes 170 jdams per day Pretty much all experts admit that Russia makes 3 times more artillery shells than the entire NATO. What about quality and effectiveness? During war you want as much ammo as you can get. I don't think that anyone ever said "I wish I had less weapons". Also USA bought ammo from South Korea and Japan, I guess it also means something bad Even Russia lost all of their tanks - they would still have more tanks on the battlefield because Russia produces more tanks than entire NATO. Btw, leopard 1 is as old as t55. But, unlike Ukraine, Russia doesn't use their old tanks as MBT, but rather as artillery systems because they fire different caliber than newer models

  15. But USSR won in Afghanistan and when they left the country - the pro Soviet Afghan government still controlled the country

  16.  @occhamite  locals asked Rurick to rule them. And he did a great job, conquered Kiev

  17.  @JeroenvanHaren  history of 2014 would disagree
