I hope the Russian people get enough courage to put an end to Putin and his private war to make himself great by re-creating the Soviet Union, starting with Ukraine as his first victim.

Zielinsky has done a great job of rallying his people to reject the idea, that in spite of their Russian heritage, no longer want to be under the thumb of oppression that seems to continually reign in Russia.

United States and the European Union (NATO) are strapped because, aside from the attempts at diplomatic discussion, entering the war would mean nuclear war and World War III. Something that Putin may want to happen for some perverse reason.
