He just wants areas with oil, natural gas and valuable minerals. Or ok, putin wants to stay in power. He does not mind also doing genocide of all Ukrainians, and same time killing as many as possible minorities living under russian power. Buryats, Tajiks, and many other minor groups are pushed to die in Ukraine instead of 'elite' of Moscow and St Petersburg. And sure, he does not mind how much he kills even main russians, as long as they kept away from doing revolution. National guard taking care of putins safety is stronger than their army, for a clear reason: avoid army attacking emperor.Gps wrote: ↑Fri Oct 14, 2022 4:39 pm The alternative media I follow said from day one, Putin never wanted to take over all off the Ukraine, just some areas like the donbas.
Now I see a Russian music friend stating something else.
Let me wish you strength in this madness, because as always the people are paying the price.
Alternative media you follow is most likey something financed by russia. Or sure, there is some fools some who are convinced even without financial support.
Take a look at nations that are living on russian border. All democratic countries living on russian border, previously under russian power are the ones that oppose russians hardest. Estonia, Poland, Lithuani, Latvia. They know what russians are. Now russia is getting weaker, and nearly all of its allies are escaping it, sor example Kazakhstan, Georgia, etc. Educate yourself with stuff like Holodomor
Take a look either one of these:

After watching that, understanding russian state and people is much more easier.
