OK, I'll say something. This is pathognomonic of your problem. You don't understand what you're reading and you comment. I was for the Multi-polar world & Russia is fighting for a multi-polar world. The US wants a unipolar world.

If you think Russia wants a multipolar world, you must have been asleep for the last 200 years, or know absolutely nothing of Russia's history. You at least remember the Soviet Union, right? There is a major misconception between what USA wants and what Russia says USA wants. When USA is "expanding," it is trying to open up more countries to international trade, so that countries will have their economic levels brought up and supported by other major world economies. And sure, sometimes that means deposing dictators that stifle economic and personal freedoms, and steal their country's resources. When Russia talks about USA wanting to expand, they claim that it's USA wanting to expand dictatorial military power, because that's what Russia is, and has been trying to do since it was taken over by Mongolians many centuries ago.
Why do you think that a culture that was literally creating a unipolar world throughout most of the 1900's, that now has many of the same people in power that were in power when it was USSR, suddenly wants a multipolar world?

Frankly, I'm not too sympathetic with innocent idealists. They should know if they were falling into the wolves' lair. That's what happened in Maidan. They could have read more & if they did, they could have learned they were falling into the usual trap of the CIA, they should have been wiser. They were stupid, to be frank.

Look what happened...

What happened is Ukrainians deposed a wanabe dictator with close ties to Russia. They chose freedom over strong rule, which Russia is yet to do. And if the new government is as bad as Russians claim it is, they will do it again and again. Ukraine is no longer safe for socialist dictators that rob the country of its resources with Russia's blessing. That's what happened.
