No, it's not at all what happened when the Nazi's advanced in WWII. If you watch the Vice News reports, it seems that the people are ambivalent to who rules over them, they just want the fighting to stop. In contrast, in WWII, the Nazis were not much liked by the occupied peoples.
- adestefan 12y agoWhile it was a little bloody (mainly through assassinations), there was a sizable faction within Austria that hailed the unification of Germany and Austria. The Reich was cheered by thousands on their celebratory tour through the country in 1938.
- falcolas 12y ago> it seems that the people are ambivalent to who rules over them Based on my contacts in Ukrane (4 colleagues), no, they are not ambivalent. They don't want Russia in their country. Hell, we've had to help one of those 4 re-locate due to the invasion.
