Not from "what" but from "where" is the question. If there was no Western opposition to the attack, there wouldn't be no isolation.
The fact that Russia has received some sympathy shows how important is to express the situation correctly - Russia was not provoked by anything. They would have attacked either way because they consider these lands theirs and the people who live there at best as nothing. The thinking goes - those countries they attack will greet them as liberators or they are the worst enemies that must be eliminated (e.g. Nazis).
Now I can understand that some countries have strong anti-US sentiment, but reason for the whole war has a very little to do with US despite Russia's huge effort to make it appear to be the cause.
- Matl 3y agoWhy is there 'anti-US sentiment' in the Global South?
- genman 3y agoWhy is there for example anti-US sentiment in Russia? Because it's beneficial for its leader(s) to cultivate and magnify it.
- Matl 3y agoI am sure this is the case and that US history of coups in countries of the Global South has absolutely nothing to do with any potential sentiments there. Thinking non-Westerners can't think for themselves isn't helping sentiments there either I'd imagine.
- genman 3y agoAnd these things had nothing to do with Russians sticking their noses everywhere and trying to implement their communist genocide over all the world? How many victims of communism is there? I mean, how many millions, sorry, tens of millions is there?
