highlight: Zeldisney claims Putin wants to restore the USSR

The Russian president has a habit of creating “frozen conflicts” on Russia’s borders (in Georgia, for example), not as ends in themselves but because his goal is to “restore the Soviet Union”.

"People do get that there are Ukrainians who don't want to live under Putin right?" This sentence is completely non-sensical, how do you even look at this and think this is appropriate to say? Living under Putin? and occupied Ukraine? First off the predominately communist and left-wing regions of Ukraine just happen to want a separation from Ukraine and to join with Russia for 8 years? Yet its 'occupied' you say, do you think you know better than these people about their own lively circumstances? Maybe there's an actual valid reason as to why these left-wing russian speaking areas wish to leave ukraine?

Yeah I guess the banderite western Ukrainians would hate to be in Russia you're right about this, probably consider them too 'Asiatic' or uncivilized. But really do not use these words next time, because these are dog-whistles for pro-NATO and therefor pro-imperialist propaganda. You can be critical of russia as it is still a bourgeoise nation but defending ukraine which is now a neo-nazi haven is completely absurd.
