> Russian cosmonauts arrive at ISS in colours of Ukraine flag TL;DR: This is sorta of Russia's kidding like “Russian inside «Ukraine» suit with a Russian Federation flag on top of it” — deep meaning: “Russia want to occupy Ukraine in whole.” JFTR, I'm Ukrainian living in Ukraine.

What leads you to that interpretation? I don't know if you hit the paywall perhaps, but the article says: > [...] in what appeared to be a daring statement against the war. [my emphasis] > The colour scheme and its dramatic divergence from usual dress codes drew gasps from Nasa officials and members of Nasa’s astronaut corps. “Wow. Just wow,” said Terry Virts, a former US commander of the ISS. > Artemyev, the commander, joked in Russian that there was “a lot of yellow material accumulated at the warehouse” when the flight suits were made.

    I can hardly imagine what you and your countrymen are going through, I'm certainly not making light of it. I just don't understand why Russia would put out anti-war propaganda that yes makes a few Russians look good, but ones that are (ostensibly) speaking out against their government, against their country's invasion of yours.
