In his future policies, including those on the Russian track US President-elect Donald Trump will rely on the commitments to the forces that brought him to power, rather than on election pledges, Russian presidential aide Nikolay Patrushev told the daily Kommersant in an interview. "The election campaign is over," Patrushev noted. "To achieve success in the election, Donald Trump relied on certain forces to which he has corresponding obligations. As a responsible person, he will be obliged to fulfill them."

Stalin was the first to annex Novorossiya to Ukraine on the map. At that time, Ukraine was a completely agricultural country, and the Bolsheviks believed that the basis of the communist system was the proletariat, so Ukraine needed the proletariat of Novorossiya/The proletariat are factory workers.

@@ГалинаБрагина-п2т You are not that correct here. In the Russian Empire, Ukraine as any kind of single administrative unit did not exist. Forming Ukraine became possible only after the February Revolution, and the result was autonomy of Ukraine within Russia. That included the so-called "Novorossiya". So, you should blame Kerensky, not Stalin, if you wish to. "Novorossiya" was the areas conquered from the Crimean Khanate. Majority of the settlers became ethnic Ukrainians. And the claim that all cities were Russians is not as simple as that either - the Russian censuses recorded the language, and as the Ukrainian language had no official status and its use as a written language was prohibited, anyone bilingual got registered as Russian.

Crimea hasn't always been Russian, that claim simply isn't true. Not that it matters, what matters is that Crimea is internationally recognised as Ukrainian territory and Russia had no right to militarily invade it and the Donbas in 2014, conduct ethnic cleansing and fake a referendum in a conflict zone. It is unacceptable in international law for one country to militarily invade another and occupy its territory. That is why the UN General Assembly voted unanimously (bar 6 minor dissenting countries) to condemn and oppose Russia's invasions of Ukraine. It is not just the West that oppose Russia's illegal actions and support Ukraine liberating its Motherland and returning its displaced millions of citizens to their homes.

Another thing, people in this video keep mentioning how US is helping Ukraine, so its a war against US and not Ukraine, ok, but then again by that logic, since Russia is receiving aid from North Korea and Iran, does that mean it's a war between US, North Korea and Iran on Ukrainian soil? What is this double standard bullshiit? So, Russia who is the aggressor in this case, can receive military aid from other countries, but Ukraine which is defending itself, cannot? Wtf is wrong with these people? Putin keeps saying how NATO is expanding towards east, key word expanding, but just because you see it that way, does not make it true, what expansion are you talking about? And more importantly, who the fuckk are you decide who is going to join NATO and who won't? If Ukraine feels like joining NATO, who the fuckk are you to stop them from doing that?
