Who Else Noticed This In Battle Field In This Russian-ukraine War? by Goodmarlian: 12:51am On Feb 27, 2022
Russians and Ukrainians seem to speak the same language,there seem to be no language barrier between the two countries,I have seen 4 videos of captured Russian soldiers being questioned by Ukrainian army they seem to understand each other very well,and there is this video of a Ukrainian lady yelling at Russian soldiers that occupy her street telling them to leave that they are shameless assholes the Russians soldiers seem to understand her very well and try to calm her down.
let there be peace between two brothers their ancestors would really be ashamed of them for killing each other.

I think there is a common lingual they all understood, just like speaking pidgin English to someone in Cotonou or Ghana, they would surely comprehend and respond in affirmative

Russian is still the most spoken language in Ukraine, its like the way Fulanis and other northerners speak Hausa, its not their language but they prefer it daily.

Thats one of the reasons why this war of aggression makes no sense, even the Ukrainian president and most of their top leaders can't speak Ukrainian properly.

Putin is just a despot and a bully and all his supporters are the usual weaklings who look to hide behind bullies so they can conceivably feel what "strength" is like. Pathetic.

If your sister joins your enemies to gang up against you won't you try to fight her at home since she's the closest person to you others may use her to kill you

Russia is like a family member who other family members are ganging up against
For no seriously serious reason, America should focus on their soon to be dwindling economy and also tackle homeless people littered all over new York and los Angeles and stop sticking their heads into what's not important

Many Ukrainians speak Russians due to Russian influence over centuries.

Lol... It's annoying...

Imagine if Putin were an African or Arab leader...

Do you know how many Congolese the Belgians tortured and killed? Far more than the Jews Hitler killed...

How did they belong to Russia originally? Yes, part of Russian empire. Do we still have Russia empire? Ukraine is Ukraine. Russia is Russia. Instead of declaring war on Ukraine, Russia should have shown some love. Russia has nothing to offer Ukraine or world expect AK47.
The main reason Russia invaded Ukraine is because putin hates to see a flourishing democratic nation with liberalism in his border.
Don't blame western nations for present situation. When Russia was weak economically in 90s , Ukraine had chance of becoming a nuclear power but West and Russia prevailed on Ukraine to release nuclear arsenals to Russia in exchange for oil.

This is a misleading argument and used as an excuse by Putin sycophants and just a few genuinely ignorant people on the facts. Ukraine (before this war anyway) was not in anyway closer to joing NATO than it has been in the more than 20 years it has tried. This is a fact.

In fact it is well known that most members of NATO could not see the advantage in getting Ukraine to join and could not be bothered (before the war). UKraine was very close to joing in 2008 during the George Bush regime but the same weak two- faced western European leaders led by France stood in their way. That was their closest period to joining . A fact.


https://www.google.com/amp/s/mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSL0115117020080401

Another more important fact is that Russia already has 5 of it neighbors it shares borders with in NATO already. Russia is already encircled by NATO and Putin has known this for years. In fact in the days he was pretending early in his reign there was talk about Russia joing NATO!

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.rferl.org/amp/russia-putin-says-discussed-joining-nato-with-clinton/28526757.html

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.nato.int/acad/fellow/98-00/davydov.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwih6di1gKD2AhUS_rsIHfxRC204ChAWegQIHRAB&usg=AOvVaw3FsCOretFTkFcJZGdHWr0z

Now it seems Putin has made the biggest miscalculation. Public opinion in all the countries that blocked Ukraine from joining is now in full support of Ukraine joining and you will see how thise selfish Western European leaders will now push for Ukraine to join. Also other countries close to Russia like Finland and Sweden who NATO has been begging to join for almost 50years now have suddenly turned around to say they want to join!

Truly when the gods want to destroy someone, they first make him mad.

Most analyst that know have said Putin did this out of a personal grudge (very similar to Hitler's behaviour, history repeating itself) and you will see that he only becomes weaker from this story, that is the ultimate outcome for insecure despots who bow to their emotions.
