LOL. I see you can't understand that the point of view, opposite to yours, can be independent, but it's not my problem. |

Stalingrad the Movie. ypa! BTW, if you think this movie has something about a "glorifying Stalin", that's not right. This movie (BTW, a little silly and illogical movie) devoted for the people's feat. |

Ukrainian ex-president Yuschenko: "I understand that you can offend, of course, the occupier Putin, who has gone mad, but, on the other hand, there is a feeling that he came to where least of all Ukrainian, where there is no our language practically, where there is no our memory, where there is no our church, where there is no our culture" And if so, Putin, Russia can grab this territory and stay with "clear conscience" (or with "high level morale") after this grabbing? ![]() |

I am losing respect for you. IMHO, just try to cool down - differences in mentality lead to misunderstandings. Social researches show, unfortunately, brutal and black reality - at least 3/4 of Russian people worldwide are today patriots of Empire or Putin followers. Russian journalist A. Troicky did a small research inside of Russian diaspora in Estonia. IMHO, this episode shows the mentality of typical Putin lower... Q. (A. Troicky) If You are so unhappy here, if You hate Estonia so much, why You do not repatriate to Russia? A. I was born here. Q. So, Your Motherland is Estonia? A. No, my Motherland is Russia. Q. If so, why You do not repatriate then? A. What I will do there (in Russia)?! My own conclusion from this episode - Russian people do not want to live in Russia, but everywhere, they live, they want Russia. Are You able to understand such logic? If "Yes" then, IMHO, You are a genius. :-) If "No" then do not worry. I am 1/4 Russian by blood, I know Russians very well (including direct contacts with them in my real life), but I am not able too... C'est la vie. ![]() |

My own conclusion from this episode - Russian people do not want to live in Russia, but everywhere, they live, they want Russia. I can. I guess its always easier to remember the past as happy Days. 'It was better before. The more before the better' But Russians going back to Soviet era or Russia Tsar era... Seems very strange. Don't the Russian people suffered enough? |

My own conclusion from this episode - Russian people do not want to live in Russia, but everywhere, they live, they want Russia. Russian remedy. Vodka is consumed in incredible amounts perhaps because of the difficult life in Russia. My girlfriend (she is half Russian) brother was in Russia once and ordered vodka and coka cola in a bar. He got a liter bottle of vodka! Life expectancy in Russia is about 10 years less than the rest of the world because of alcohol problems |

You're kidding. You're kidding. :) You mixed different things in one. The Ukraine is an artificial country, it's my point from 1991. Crimea must be Russian, it's my point from 1991. Putin is not a good leader for Russia, I think. He tell many right speeches but he don't do a real modernization of economy, etc, it's very bad. I don't trust him. But he is really much better in comparing with Yeltsin and sometimes he do some right things, for example the Crimea reunion. |

Ukraine is already receiving electricity from Russia, said the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko. http://www.microsofttranslator.com/bv.aspx?from=&to=en&a=http%3A%2F%2Feconomics.unian.net%2Fenergetics%2F1027564-ukraina-uje-poluchaet-elektroenergiyu-iz-rossii-poroshenko.html P.S. Once again, it is VERY strange "war". |

You're kidding. Every country in the World is artificial:) And that Crimea belongs to Russia is pure nonsense. Read some history. https://translate.google.se/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsv.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FKrim&edit-text= https://translate.google.se/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsv.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FRurikdynastin&edit-text= And today Russians are treating russian ethnics in Ukraine like low life... Both in Donbass and the refugees coming to Russia. Not to mention Crimean tatars who are treated as terrorist and FBU searching their homes and deny them to have meetings. |

Ethnic Russians are NOT the majority in either Ukraine, nor Crimea. Not true in Crimea. Here is some figures from 2001. Russians:1,450,000 (58.5%), Ukrainians: 577,000 (24.0%), Crimean Tatars: 245,000 (10.2%), Belarusians: 35,000 (1.4%), Volga Tatars: 13,500 (0.5%), Armenians: 10,000 (0.4%). However remember that ethnic cleansing of non-russians in Crimea started mostly during the Stalin era. A lot of russians moved to Crimea at that time and got privileges far from ukrainians. Likewise in other occupied countries by the russians. And now the same:( Übermensch comes to mind! |

Ethnic Russians are NOT the majority in either Ukraine, nor Crimea. Stop your bs! Ethnic Russians are the majority in the Eastern Ukraine and Crimea. Ukraine could become the normal state after 1991, for example as Belgium or Switzerland, but she preferred to build the mono-national state with single official language and aspiration to convert all ethnicities into one. And you don't know the history well or you don't understand what is enslaving. |

And that Crimea belongs to Russia is pure nonsense. But it belongs to Russia from 1783. Unfair casual of 1954 accidentally was not corrected in 1991 (because of the drunken Yeltsin's obliviousness) but it was corrected in 2014. Justice triumphed. |

And that Crimea belongs to Russia is pure nonsense. If Russia Gets Crimea, Should Germany Get Kaliningrad "Königsberg"? http://www.themoscowtimes.com/news/article/if-russia-gets-crimea-should-germany-get-kaliningrad/496558.html Kaliningrad FSB finds ‘deep offence’ in a German flag http://khpg.org/index.php?id=1403487420 Finnish Karelia was a historical province of Finland, and is now divided between Finland and Russia, often called just Karjala in Finnish. Is it OK if Finland now annex Karelia? And should the US hand over Alaska to Russia? |

The leaders of the terrorists of Eastern Ukraine and Boroday Bezler now admit that the so-called Novorossiya does not exist:) http://www.microsofttranslator.com/bv.aspx?from=ru&to=en&a=http%3A%2F%2Fpodrobnosti.ua%2Faccidents%2F2015%2F01%2F02%2F1009796.html |
