  1. It's hilarious that Putin claims those lands were Russian. Anyone can check What Russian lands were when Russian tsardom was first created and it were much smaller then what it is now. Heck, Ukraine, Lithuania and Belarus have once formed single nation known as Grand Dutchy of Lithuania. And this was before Russia even existed.

  2. The West also has 300 million or billion Russian foreign currency frozen, which can be used for reparations.

  3. Because of WW2 is my guess. And the whole Soviet Union thing. The thing we forget is that victory came at the cost of 20+ milion lives. Far more than any other nation. Back then they had a lot more expendable cannon fodder than today.

  4.  @theblackhand6485  actually, it would make region more stable. Russia would be unstable perhaps and fall apart into smaller countries but region it self should stabilise as the person in charge will seek to consolidate power in Russia, so war with Ukraine might be called off and replacer will blame everything on Putin and ask sanctions removed.

  5. Soviets also didn't push Germans out of the country in one day. It took time and equipment that came later.

  6. Happy to hear your family left Russia and your life is better. Though, why did they have to move so dangerously? My grandparents emigrated to Lithuania in 60ies just fine.

  7.  @thegrizzlyfamily1374  okay, gotcha. They were escaping Soviet Union as a whole at the time. Yeah, Soviet bastards were definitely not happy when free people tried that.

  8.  @KameraShy  Not a fan of the guy but credit due where credits due. His project did help Ukrainians at least a little bit, even if USA paid for it.

  9. Asshole Kyril being banned isn't a surprise. In my birth city of Klaipeda, some dumb orthodox priest tried ether support Russian war or even recruit younger people for the cause, this resulted in possibility of one of two orthodox churches being shut down. Not sure if they actually did it since it's been awhile since I spoke with godmother who still lives in that city. Hope they just sack the priest and replace him with someone who isn't a warmonger instead of shutting down the church.

  10. You are right about annexation. Belarus is already being prepped to be annexed peacefully and the same fate was made for Ukraine. Russia is indeed in trouble. As you said, he build it up so only he can control it. This is his way of preventing coups as everyone knows that once he dies, Russia will follow the fate of USSR. The thing about Hitler is that even his own generals attempted to assassinate him. Putin can push the button all he wants. The only thing is does is signal someone on the other side to launch nukes. The question is, are people responsible for actual launch are suicidal enough to die and kill other Russians in the name of Putin?

  11. False flag wouldn't surprise me. USSR justified winter war against Finland by shelling their own village and blaming Finland for it.

  12. Ah yes, it's a trap. That is why Russians left equipment worth billions to Ukrainians.

  13.  @rogerwilco5918  Zerg rush does seem like the most popular Russian tactic.

  14. You don't need to supply cannon fodder.

  15. It's interesting that Russia blames Ukraine. It's pretty much them admitting that Russia isn't as safe as they claimed and Ukrainian agents can easily infiltrate even mid war with them. More Russian incompetence.

  16.  @rockmusicman21  is it Volodymyr Zolkin?

  17. I can't imagine the logistical nightmare to look after these men when Russia can't even simply them. Russia you drunk, go home.

  18. I haven't seen full video, but what was shown translates as " to all soldiers. Christ got resurrected and went to heaven and we all will go to heaven as well." This is ludicrous.

  19. Most of those depots are probably worthless since it's Soviet era stuff that Russia been using. Meanwhile Ukraine has all the 21st century toys gifted by the West.

  20. Jake, in Russia a guy killed recruitment commander after his friend was taken. Shouted after that, that no on will be taken anymore. We need more Russians like him. Raising up against their fascist government.

  21. A friend likes to visit Lvov. Definitely should be numero uni priority.

  22.  @marveloussoftware4914  Firstly, Lithuania never took control of Ukraine as by the time Ukraine was born as a nation, Lithuania was to weak to do anything but defend it self. GDL did take control of lands that currently belong to Ukraine during its wars with Moscovita after the fall of Kievan Rus. And unlike Russia, GDL accepted Ruthenian culture and let it prosper, instead of snuffing it like Russia done to lands that fall into its hands.

  23. Eastern Europe countries would happily polish the knives extra shiny before stabbing commences.

  24.  @_josephbogdan_  yeah, but the person wrote Russia, hence confusion on my part.

  25. The problem is, Russia isn't North Korea. Russians as docile as they are, and willing to suffer hardships for victory, are only willing to tow the line as long as leader is able to convince them he is strong and Russia is wining. Take those away and Russians will do to Putin, what they've done to their last Tsar. Which is poetic since Putin sees him self as tsar of Russia. As Lenin once said, Russians are three meals a day away from descending into chaos.

  26.  @charlesross2439  Russia started attempting to overrun whole Ukraine, failed and are now forced to pull all their forces in eastern and southern Ukraine. How does that translate into Ukraine losing? Actually, even if they take over Odessa, what reason would Ukraine have to negotiate the loss of territory for peace when they can just retake it later. Surrendering territory for peace right now would be stupid. Russia will just attack again when the next oil prices align and it's not guarantee that West will help as much again. They are better off continuing the war since they are litteraly being subsidized with weapons, ammo and money.

  27. Yeah, fighting us over small island with no benefits and population that hates them is definitely less valuable then taking territory with a lot if recourses and a more friendly population.

  28. They hit ot when it was supposed to be impossible. Seems successful to me. Especially since this forces Russians to move recourses towards it and away from other things.

  30. There were no national identities? Calling bullshit on that. I've been told by parents and grandparents that during Soviet times, you had to select what nationality you wanted to be put on the passport. They thought Lithuania still done that decades after leaving USSR. My grandfather who was of Russian nationality demanded I select russian one. I didn't like being pushed into such things and to annoy him told him I would select Lithuanian, which I got from mom's side. If he annoyed me to much, I threatened to have German placed on it. Thankfully I never had to make the choice as my country removed it long before I had to make one. I just have my citizenship in there. Which is proud Lithuanian.

  31. So does China. The question is, will Putin risk nuclear ahnialation of Russia over the loss of outer Manchuria?

  32. Russia defaulted in 1918. Soviet Union didn't exist untill 1922.

  33. Putin doesn't sound very Putin like.

  34. I don't see how referendums in Russian occupied territories matter? No one will believe the results. It's even sillier than Hitler's referendum in Austria.

  35.  @IldarIsm  Stalin seems to disagree with you. Though a lot of Soviet blood was spent on victory. Like a lot.

  36.  Blib Gluntner  you need to get off the shrooms. Germany didn't answer any call. Lithuania and others were not independent when Germany forced Russia to surrender in ww1. They actually gained independence after Russia was forced to give up the East European lands. And after that Germany didn't fight Russia since Germany lost ww1 to Allies. It's hilarious that you try to portray Nazi Germany as a hero. Ever heard of Holocaust and Auschwitz? Allies didn't back the wrong horse since they fought Germany before Soviet Union joined the fight. In ether case, in modern times Soviet Union is gone and Germany has reformed and part of NATO.

  37.  @Deezter16  isn't that how they got poisoned the last time?

  38. ​ @stormmoster No. Baltics got occupied mid ww2.

  39. @stormmoster  They were occupied in 40ies so they were occupied by Soviets mid ww2 and became part of the USSR. Post ww2 they remained part of USSR because unlike on Warsaw pact nations, Soviets didn't need to hold elections.

  40.  @victoremman4639  you mean to rebuild Ukraine as Russian puppet state, preferably with Ukrainians replaced with Russians.
    1
  41.  @victoremman4639  it's nether yours not fascist Putin's decision whether Ukraine should be a neutral state with aggressive imperialistic nation gunning for them close by. The choice is that of Ukraine and it's people and government. USA hasn't caused a coup in Ukraine. People got pissed of cause Russian puppet followed Putin's command and tore up agreement with EU, agreement he promised them. Here's a better solution. Russian orcs go back into its land of Mordor. And Sauron stops invading every country that after managing to free it self from him , asks for NATO protection. If Sauron didn't cause conflicts and trouble for neighbors, NATO wouldn't have reinvigorate it self and would just fall apart eventually.

  42.  @victoremman4639  that is a lot of lies. While true that both Russia and USA attempted to influence Ukraine since 90ies, USA didn't attempt to destabilise the country and most certainly didn't wish create russaphobic attacks against local russian descendants. Russia on the other had actually had a hand in creation of separatists in Donbas and supplying them with arms and people , hence the civil war in Donbas. The problem is also in the fact that Ukraine can never be truly neutral as Russia will always attempt to force it self on it. Putin even recently admitted he wants to recover old russian conquered territories. Ultimately, it's nether yours, mine or Russia's decision what path Ukraine should take, it is Ukraine's. Funny you mention Hitler when Putin is litteraly reading from his handbook, including shooting civies in the back and rape of local Ukrainian women, along with forced conscription of Donbas Ukrainians into the army as part of his genocidal plan to use them as cannon fodder and replacing them with Russian population if he manages to win. Everything you post is litteraly for the benefit of Russia, not Ukraine.

  43. Yeah, sure. Its not as if its age old tactic to strike at supply routes. Russian troops will do just fine waiting longer for supplies. /s

  44. Except China has its own nukes. Would Putin risk nuclear ahnialation over scrubby borderlands? In fact, why would Russia station so many troops if nukes can be answe to any agression? Why did they go to China to ask for permission for this war?
    1
  45. It never was. Russian tactics haven't changed. Putin even admited as much when he talked about Peter the Great's conquests and compared that to what he was doing.

  46. Being in war by it self, doesn't make one a war criminal. Otherwise every soldier would be one. Persecuting every russian soldier just for being a soldier not only would set up bad precedent (USA. looking at you) but also would turn away other russian soldiers from fleeing. If they feel like they have no other choice but to fight, they will fight. And nothing is worse than a cornered animal with nothing left to lose.

  47. Russians having logistics problems again? You don't say.

  48. I think Russian soldiers already lost the will to fight, but kinda hard to leave when your notification of leave isn't accepted and monsters are put behind you that will tear you apart if you retreat.

  49. It's a conditional support. Yes, they kinda support Russian war machine with money but at heavy discount. Would they buy it at full price? They can afford to not buy for a while. Russia can't afford to stop selling.

  50.  @rusdram4294  yes, the money of some EU nations supports Russian War machine but countries themselves are opposed to Russian war.
