Thank you for considering this, and I don't feel offended. You are just sharing your opinion on the matter and we all appreciate that.
But do you think you can clearly assess the situation with everything that's happening on your doorstep? Because I can imagine that is difficult. If so, please don't let the emotions take over.
{as I write this, my city and neighborhood are being shelled by return fire from Russian artillery, following the daytime AFU strikes on Energodar that I wrote about in a previous post. It's very loud and close again}
Believe me, it's not emotions. I try to be objective and think in a balanced way. Of course, all these terrible events cannot leave me indifferent and have their effect. But I am not a "hothead."
I am a strong empath, such is my soul, and I feel the pain and suffering of others very strongly, worried about the whole damn world. It's very hard.
Of course, we cannot see the whole chessboard of geopolitics and all the moves behind the scenes. But it is also easy to determine for ourselves the analysis of the situation, to judge what is happening, the strategy, while being very far from the center of these events. But is it right, how accurate is it?
I understand that all this is a redistribution of the world, a confrontation between the world elites and centers of influence, where Ukraine is now just a field of battle, a bargaining chip, a victim on the altar.
But I also look at all these events from the inside, as I wrote above, I see the sentiments and experiences of people on both sides, I see what they are focused on, what they expect from the government, what their hopes are. Most Russians want to see tougher and more appropriate actions by their country in response to all the Ukrainian provocations, terrorist attacks, murders, and ever increasing violence.
I also see that even the leaders of public opinion are perplexed as to why there is no adequate response. Why isn't all this being stopped. How many more cities, people, pro-Russian politicians and activists will Ukraine destroy? Even the Russians "joke" that it seems that for the Kremlin to wake up, Ukraine/NATO must strike at the Kremlin itself.
