- throw310822 1y agoWhy would Russia, the largest country in the world, scarcely populated, try to steal more territory? I understand that Ukraine's territory is more valuable than the equivalent parts of Siberia, but still, is it that important? Isn't it more obvious that Russia considers Ukraine part of its own backyard and doesn't want an aggressive, confrontational superpower to attract it in its sphere of influence?

- sam_lowry_ 1y agoAt least once, @selivanovp is right here. Russia invaded because it could, and because the existing political system needed a war to consolidate power and justify oppression. The alternative was internal political tensions, weakening economy, and eventually an end to Putin's rule. Don't forget that he is 72 and senile or, as Trump put it, "absolutely crazy".
- ponector 1y agoThere is no point to argue with russians here. They perfectly know they are lying. They are fine with whatever atrocities have been done by russian people.
