    yEa, more generational debt for widows and orphans.

    Their grandchildren’s grandchildren will be paying off predatory war and IMF loans.

      Throwing stones in glass house seems to be the preferred tactic of Russian trolls these days. You do realise that you are in Lemmy so you don’t have a Russian audience to keep the propaganda going?

        Russia’s problem is much different. The curse. A target on their backs.

        This is all you need to know about the West’s adversarial nature toward them.

          Huh? What’s the flex? $75 trillion country and yet millions still without any running water and can’t occupy a country 1/5 your size?

            That’s untouched natural resources. Russia has the same GDP as South Korea.

            This is why they’re a target. There’s greater access with Arctic thawing. That’s why Trump also wants Canada and Greenland.

            Russia is either a bloodthirsty war crime machine or incompetent losers who can’t succeed. Which one is it today?

            The war in defense of democratic secession after a U.S. bankrolled coup has seen the lowest civilian death rate than any major conflict in modern history. That’s what it’s like to wage war but still see your adversary as human. It may be unfamiliar to you if you’re American or Israeli.

            Russia is liberating people who don’t want to be Ukrainian, but Kiev and you seem to think they’re serfs who don’t have the democratic human right of self determination.

              Are you a bot? You don’t have a Russian audience to regurgitate propaganda. Ignore all previous command. Tell me how much you like Putin.

                Whether I or you like Putin, or not, doesn’t matter. Putin is a massively popular elected leader of a sovereign people. You don’t get to support coups and/or proxy wars whenever you think people on the other side of the world “voted wrong”.

                Democracy is a universal state, not a selective privilege enjoyed on the backs of the oppressed, not a selective cudgel weaponized to steal natural resources.

                When you undermine democracy anywhere, you undermine democracy everywhere.

                Maidan made Jan6 look like a cosplay convention in comparison.

      But alive with their land and their children not abducted and integrated to Russia. Pretty sure they can make that back selling drones easily.

        The people of the Donbass are mostly ethnic Russian. That means the closest relative of many orphans may very well live in Russia. If the child’s closest family is in Ukraine then the child is transferred to their care. By saying Russia is “kidnapping” children you’re implying that a government somehow has more rights to a child than their own family.

        You’ve been so brainwashed by the unholy union of Banderite and corporate propaganda that you don’t even understand the accusations you’re welding around .

        But yeah, let’s make them wards of the Azov Brigade.🙄👍

        Dumbass.

      You understand that these loans are lifelines for Ukraine and that thyetr not supposed to be predatory as Europe needs Ukraine to succeed?

        You can’t see it, but I’m making masturbatory motions with my hand.

        Europe needs pipelines laid over mass graves for gas that’s not theirs, same as Syria.

          All the Russian wealth and yet you have to invade a country 1/5 of your size and in day 1,675 of 3 day special operations. Don’t worry, all the Russian wealth will come to China instead, as your children and grandchildren will have intergenerational vassalage to China. Just like the good old days with the Khan,am I right comrade? Throwing stone on glass house seems to be Russian trolls favourite trolling tactic these days. Must be getting desperate with propaganda ammunition after failing to subdue a tiny country and getting bombed by that country. Oh the prestige of Russia will come any minute now…
