Baltics were part of Czar empire till first world war then occupied by germans. It was bolsheviks who first recognized them as independent states. Later they became soviet republics with the right to walk away whenever they wanted which they did.
Konigsberg is a unique area .It was a small...
He is right. When did USSR annex anything ? they actually liberated so many republics from czar empire - the baltics and poland were all liberated by bolsheviks from czar. After second world war too most of eastern europe had thier own countries. only a few became soviet republics. And each one...
Another funny thing is despite all the claims about civilization in europe this war once again underlines the savagery there. People willingly killing their own neighbors or egging one fighting against other, raping and pillaging them because they cannot sit and negotiate like adults. And same...
Ukraine is a near nato nation and maybe the biggest cheerleader of it right now. what are its living standards ?
You dont get western living standards by setting your own house on fire and sucking up to west.
lets see for how long. Uk quit EU because of the mooching Poland did on them. Right now everyone got germany has the milching cow using their past guilt. They want german economy to power every radical east european country and military to support them as well. eventually it may break EU .
I am not supporting Russia at all and was taken aback when they launched the war. And i dont support wars and neither do i support oppression in the name of national sovereignty or whatever Ukraine is doing right now . At the same time i don't have any antipathy to Russia per se based on...
An 18 year old partisan is a terrorist? and nazis are carrying out justice in Russia ? she was murdered by nazis in moscow oblast - her own country - not in berlin. Are you saying an 18 year old murdered in her own country by an occupying regime is a terrorist because she resisted it?. And i am...
i dont know you at a personal level at all and i dont need to. Claiming credibility on your behalf by basing it on your ethnicity claims (which have been all over the place) is not going to gain any favor from me. If indeed your source of credibility is being a Slav why should i not go with...
I don't know how anyone can say with straight face that victims of colonization don't value freedom. its basically saying they are subhuman - in fact the language you used before is they like to be on their knee pads or something.
Saying Russia has colonial ambitions is just not true. And your...
Atleast in this forum i haven't seen anyone really anti-US . They are really about their country's interest and don't agree with us policies impacting them - like chinese regarding taiwan or sanctions on their companies because they trade with some iran or Pakistanis upset about drone attacks...
Russians forced ukrainians in to a famine ? you fabricate a lot of things. i dont think you are telling the truth when you say you want them to be free and live in freedom and prosperity. If so you would have spoken about donbass and also treatment of ethnic russians in ukraine and minsk...
Nazis occupying you as a nation and forcing you to work in their factories at gun point is same as bosnians individually taking a decision to work in german factory for their personal benefit ?
People migrate to persian gulf too - in millions. There is no democracy there. it is a historical...
what a load of garbage. So many words just to say " i identify as european white and i claim superiority to you and it sucks to be you ". And you think people cannot see through the sophistry.
When were ukrainian people colonized by russians ever ? Russia declares itself as multi national...
Even if china were colonized there is no shame on Chinese - yes its unfortunate for chinese and lessons to be learnt. but one should never shame victims.
@thetutle once told me he has no shame if nazis were to win and use bosnians as cheap labor. After all they are doing the same now in German...
