  1.  kashmir pandit  Ukraine absolutely deserves it, too. Thanks to Ukraine, Russia -- and China -- will think twice before acting on their imperialist ambitions.

  2. A Shahed drone with its 40 kg warhead lacks the oomph to destroy a whole power station. The damage is likely to be $400,000 at worst, but more likely, considerably less.

  3.  kashmir pandit  We're in the EU, but I can't think of a single case where we could conceivably be accused of imperialism. Russia, however, is a clear-cut case. There's no unclarity whatsoever about Putin's imperialist ambitions since Russia illegally annexed Crimea and more recently, the four oblasts in Ukraine. Putin even compares himself to Peter the Great, who forcefully expanded Russia westward. Then there was Catherine the Great, who oversaw the vast expansion of Russia both westward and eastward. Worst of all, Russia retains most of its colonies, while the few Western powers that engaged in colonialism have long since decolonised, save for the few microcolonies that they can't rid themselves of. Russia accusing "the West" of colonization, that's your "hypocrisy unlimited".
