They are waiting for a fair Russian trial
They wil be waiting for ever then.
Just like the British mercenaries already on death row in the DPR. This is just the beginning.
They were warned. The time for negotiations is over.

All of Europe was with Hitler. You will never get rid of this fact.
As the world-famous Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov wrote, "manuscripts and documents do not burn."

The Russians say, "They don't hit on a passport or document, they hit in the face."
What's that got to do with Russians and Ukrainians using cluster munitions in Ukraine?
And Russian children, on whose heads the forbidden French and American shells fly, do not care. They just die.
What will you say if such shells start falling on your peaceful cities? Immediately remember the Convention?
At this moment, remember the dead Russian children.

It's fascinating that Russians are so obsessed with the West. Most Westerners don't give Russia a second thought owing to it being a cultural and societal jerkwater. On my list of places never to visit it's right at the top.

Hello!
Pacifism is good until things get out of hand. Now all the "red lines" have been crossed by the West. It is impossible to play the movie back to December 2021, when Putin offered reasonable solutions.
We just have to wait and see where all this will lead.

The Russians will take your opinion into account when the hostilities are in Britain and the USA
Moreover, the Chechens are Russians, the same citizens of Russia. They fight as members of the Russian National Guard. Well, the Syrians are not there. If you think that they are there, then provide evidence, not rumors and fakes.

I think it is so whoever is the leader at the time can create a siege mentality to boulster their position and consolidate power... It's the standard model of a dictator... Create fear and claim to be the antidote to the fear...

Hello, my friend. I'll try to answer your question.
1. Of course, the West is forcing Russia to take some steps. He just leaves her no choice. For example, back in November, Putin offered ways out of the crisis, but they did not listen to him, on the contrary, they made the situation even more dangerous. Putin responded, and six months later the West proposes to return to the November proposals. But now it is no longer possible, the situation has changed a lot and then the Russian people will not understand Putin.
In general, the West cannot understand that Putin's first proposal is always the softest one. Then it gets much tougher. They do not accept the first, the situation worsens for them, they think about accepting, but "the train is already leaving", and the West is faced with a new reality that it does not want to accept. Time passes again, the situation worsens even more, the West thinks about agreeing to accept the second proposals, which are worse for it. So time passes, the situation becomes catastrophic and the West accepts conditions that are much worse for it than the original ones. This happens in all areas - politics, economics, energy, etc. The only problem is how to "save face". But experts in PR solve this problem.
2. Now Russian society is so united that the authorities do not need to study public opinion. The peoples of Russia are united now more than ever. the only task for the authorities is to replace the former hardened liberal elites with new, honest and patriotic ones so that this happens with minimal losses. After all, any breakdown always comes with losses. Therefore, in Russia everything happens slowly and carefully, without sudden movements. society understands this and supports the authorities.
Thank you.
