      Nothing to do with it? There are thousands of uninvited members of a foreign military in five of their oblasts right now.

        The statement is a bit ambiguous. They might mean it in support of Ukrainian independence.

      If it has nothing to do with it you certainly know some different reasons why Ukraine was attacked and carved piece by piece since 2014.

      Please elaborate.

        Russia isn’t a federation. It’s still the USSR but different tactics and name.

        Why did Russia start this in 2014? They lost their puppet government in Ukraine. Russia desires secure borders. They always have. Ukraine slipping away necessitated Russia to invade to reinstall a puppet government. The bonus for Putin was retaking Crimea after the USSR gifted it to Ukraine in the 80s I believe.

          Ok that’s bullshit. They’re hyper capitalist and anti communist and anti equality. They share similarities to the USSR, but those qualities also appeared in czarist Russia. Russia is just like that and will be until they fix it

            USSR was barely communist. They were closer to fascist than communist.

            Releasing the grip slightly to appeal more to the global market was strategic to adapt to the times.

              It’d be cool if the anarchads and demsocs of yesteryear had coined a catchy term to describe the Soviets who were genociding them and making deals with Hitler.

              Oh wait, they did.

              Red Fascists.

                Yeah exactly lol USSR was not a communist nation. Soviets aren’t communist, Maoism is closer to Marxism.

                People look at the name of the country and assume it all changed. USSR -> Russia was just a rebrand and trimming the fat of the less than useful “members” of the “alliance”
