    No. But I don’t want to fight a war that’s not mine. Every single time when a war is starting there are people that suddenly get warlike AF wanting to kill every Russians. You just don’t know what you’re talking about, you feel like doing it because it feels good being the ‘savior’ but you’re just delusional

        He’s being very short-sighted, as if Ukraine was the final step to this war.

          I don’t even know that there is a final step for Putin. Just endless conquest. Good thing he’s not very good at it so far.
