You are assuming that Putin isn't liar and is acting rationally from Western point of view, both of which are false.
i look at the world from the greatest possible distance. i am not a party to any war as a free individual. all these state representatives are liars. or do you seriously believe that the numerous wars that people like George Bush Bill Clinton or Barack Obama have started or even this completely stupid current president in any way justify millions of civilian collateral damage?
reply
Not all state representatives and politicians are equally evil. Russia is and has always been more evil than average country. Even under democrat Yeltsin they started and participated in multiple wars (Abkhazia 1992, Transnistria 1992, Chechenia 1994).

Good and evil are not categories in which I judge politics. we do not live in a binary world! that is too simple - things are much more complex and Russia has been deliberately constructed by the western media as the realm of evil. it is the ever-popular foreign policy enemy that the British and neocons from America use to activate their partners in Germany, France and other countries. Russia is the most resource-rich country in the world - that is its problem and its strength

They have been realm of evil since foundation of Muscovy in 13th century. All their history have always been conquering and killing.

okay, if that's the category: then what about the Germans? or the Spanish and Portuguese who conquered half the world? or the Romans as the ancestors of the Italians? Are Italians then also all the bad things in the world? or what about the Americans who were not exactly friendly towards the Indians? or the Japanese at the time of the Chinese war? that is sheer nonsense. And the Brits???

Difference is that Russia is still doing this today, they do ethnic cleansings in a two ways - first against Ukrainians in Ukraine, secondly by conscripting in army mostly non-Russians. Same as communist China.
