Russia don't exist for 'hundred of years'. Why you people are repeating the nonsense?

Russia as a country exists only for ~25 years. Also even it had Crimea for thousand years before, it still won't matter - they've signed numerous international agreement s which stated that Crimea belongs to Ukraine.
It wasn't _their_ naval base in Crimea.
>Yandex predates Google. Yandex - founded in 2000. Google - founded in 1998. Predates for sure.
>Russia, and the Russians in the region that was invaded, can justify its mis-deeds as protection of its sovereignty. America, and thus Americans, cannot. There were no Americans to protect in Iraq. And there was no…
> Russian military action in Ukraine was for the purpose of protecting its sovereign borders and access to the Black Sea. Without Crimea Russia won't have access to Black Sea? Or it will lose her borders? Please clarify.
Looks like our Russian friends strongly disagree with you.
Nice twisted rhetoric, really. For a split second I did believed you, that Russia haven't invaded Ukraine, it merely 'protected it's local territory'.
It's worth noting that Latin was introduced by Asian republics, not Russia or USSR - they forced cyrillic on all republics.
US humiliated Russia? Care to provide some clarifications?
There's a definition for that: "reverse cargo cult". Russians are told to believe that Westerners build their planes from branches and dirt too - but Westerners pretend better.
Putin is angry because Yeltsin died from alcohol? What US has to do with it? Or with the fact that Putin's family died in the siege (which was USSR faut, by the way, since they've friended Hitler in 1939)?
Please do tell me when Poland captured USSR territories.
Yes, they're invaded Poland. And no, Poland didn't captured any USSR territories before that, so you can't justify that invasion.
Wrong. That would be derailing.
Where did I ever said anything about 'wrong and despicable'?
Curzon line was suggested _during_ the war. Besides, as I said - Poland had the same rights to these territories, so it was a fair game of whoever captured them first. And if we're talking about broken agreements -…
How about common sense? Or you plan to detail the discussion by switching context to talking about far-right fiction?
What "same lands" are you talking about? Poland had same rights as Bolsheviks to parts of Russian Empire. If you don't know, Lenin proclaimed that Bolsheviks aren't successors to Tsarist Russia.
You're confusing non-aggression pacts with MR pact, which in fact DIVIDED Europe between two different dictators and basically lead to WW2. Also that guy Starikov is nota a historian, but an ultra-right nationalist…
> There most definitely is an anti-russian, anti-china/asia, anti-iran/middle east/muslim, etc "sentiment" in the US. Can you provide some examples? Especially for anti-China/Asia sentiments.
For starters, they're not trying to kill their own citizens by millions. Except North Korea maybe.
