dude is waxing nostalgic about the old days of the soviet union and saying ukraine is inherently part of russia. he said ukraine was never a true nation.

clearly laying the nationalistic pretext of russia being the rightful 'owner' of ukraine to justify invading it.

he even says lenin was wrong for creating ukraine and the ussr should have never let soviet republics to leave during the breakup of ussr.

this is straight up czar shit. not even cold war shit.

another reminder...

ukraine is a free independent nation recognized by russia itself and guaranteed security from russian invasion in exchange for ukraine handing over its nuclear weapons to russia.

putins invasion of ukraine in 2014 and potential invasion now are both violations of this agreement.
