Russia’s war in Ukraine is already in its 17th month. In that time, President Vladimir Putin has clearly demonstrated that he is not bothered by losses — whether they be financial, material, or human. His war will go on as long as he needs. And, judging by how the authorities have woven the so-called “special military operation” into Russian life, that will be a long time.

    Surveys conducted in 2013.

    Gee, I wonder if anything might have happened from 2014 to present that would have changed those numbers a bit.

    Also, to dig up an old favourite, you forgot Poland. And a bunch of others. More countries were “living under the Russian thumb” than just literal members of the USSR. Here’s 14 former Soviet republics that joined NATO, whose primary purpose is to defend against Russian attack.

      To ja ci kurwa powiem, że lepiej było dla młodzieży za PRLu niż teraz. Jebać Solidarność, chuje sprzedali nas za paczkę fajek.

      Gdyby nie program ziemii odzyskanych nigdy bym kurwa nie marzył o tym że kiedykolwiek będę miał dom na własność.

      Prawie każdą osobę którą znam chce spierdolić na zachód za “lepszym” życiem, więc dzięki wielkie za tą waszą “wolność”.

      Ingles?

      NIE

      LOL. Looks like the 2013 study decided not to ask anyone they knew for sure would answer that they were glad they were free from the USSR.
