And let's not forget the parts if Siberia that weren't always part of Russia. There are still a lot of places where the population is primarily Chinese.
Yes i know, but what we see is war which is no civil war between east and west but a war between Ukraine and Russia!

Installing a puppet that can be controlled is the US way instead, with the manipulation of CIA. Why take over the land when you can get all the pros and none of the negatives of ownership thru puppets?
Then you can even claim you are not the aggressor, even when you steal all the resource thru corporations to your Empire. Both good economics and propaganda merits.

I don't. And I don't know what they have to do with it. The people of Ukraine wanted to be free of their corrupt Russian overseers and chose another path. Russia didn't like it and has sent in soldiers to fight.
Ukraine will never be free if they join the EU. They will become debt slaves to EU for ever.
Debt slaves of a EU that is loaded With debt already. Does that sound like freedom?

About half a year ago I thought it could be a good source of information and have visited it a few times and been reading a few articles every time.
Same as StopFake.org, Bellingcat and Syrian Human Rights Watch...they have only one goal, West is good and Russia and or Syria are bad, and it doesn`t matter if you post BS to make that impression.
StopFake.org and Ukraine@war blog are probably run by people like this...
He`s right in what he says in his Tweets, but Ukraine@war blog needs to make it look like he`s a Shill...sounds familiar ?...it`s a common tactic to try and discredit someone.

You know it's a violation of the Geneva conventions on war to humiliate captive solders...including putting them on TV...yet you keep posting links to those violations. Clearly you derive pleasure from spreading war crimes.
ATS should be deleting those links, but that's my opinion.

humiliation is a big part of my culture. when someone does wrong you show them. no one is going to change that.

lol, what exactly did russia gain from ukraine? ever.. i mean ever ever. like once.
heres a better idea than letting keiv and Novorocciya slaughter each other, let the eastern republics have autonomy and call it a day.
TextWhen Russia seized Crimea in March, it acquired not just the Crimean landmass but also a maritime zone more than three times its size with the rights to underwater resources potentially worth trillions of dollars. Russia portrayed the takeover as reclamation of its rightful territory, drawing no attention to the oil and gas rush that had recently been heating up in the Black Sea. But the move also extended Russia’s maritime boundaries, quietly giving Russia dominion over vast oil and gas reserves while dealing a crippling blow to Ukraine’s hopes for energy independence.

Bama dont have to get re elected so they cant force him really unless they get a 3/4th majority in both houses and then he cam let it sit for 90 days before it becomes law and goes through.
