When are you going to realize that the Russians are fighting for Ukrainian freedom, by trying to remove a fascist/Nazi Ukrainian government that the Ukrainian people are mostly against? If Russia wanted to conquer little, dinky Ukraine, they could have done it any minute over the last 20 years.
Dude, are you brainless? Almost all Russian "victories" were at the expense of other nations, including Ukraine.
And in the Second World War, Ukraine took upon itself the main blow, giving tens of millions of lives for the victory.
