You’ve been consistently wrong in this thread so wherever you’re getting your information from certainly can’t be trusted.

You’re not getting your info from state run media in Russia are you? Surely not?
It is akin to asking the paedophile Epstein if he was abusing teens as you believed when he had previously said he wasn't and him saying "no" and then saying to everyone who would listen "see, I told you"
 
My wife’s late father’s family are Ukrainians’s from the north of Ukraine and her mothers family were migrated by the soviets into Ukraine from Russia after WW2 and live in the south, she studied Ukrainian at school and her degree in Russian and has a masters in Philology, she was a teacher of both languages, in Dinepro. She says she’s never felt any amimosity from either side based on spoken language nor heard or it happening, not saying I don’t believe what’s happened to your friend, that’s terrible but I am surprised and your right issues like this should be addressed once this horrific conflict is resolved.
I do hope it's only small localised pockets of the country were such things happen. But it's being used (and twisted out of proportion) as an excuse here.

It's a big $%@#ing mess. I find it all too depressing that this is happening. People are dying and being hurt on an evil man's crazed orders.

It’s terrible for all concerned and yet some that are not seem to be utterly reveling in it, when I say some I mean one person.
 
I wonder what role the democratic processes in the west have contributed towards what is happening. There is lots of talk about Putin being mad, through illness or hubris but he always seemed from the outside to be extremely calculating. There is no Merkel, UK has left EU and might as well be run by the PG Tips monkeys the way things are going. The EU politically at least, has probably never been at a weaker position during his reign.

He probably underestimated the strength of resistance they would meet in Ukraine or the extent that the Russian economy will be hit but it wouldn't be a surprise if he went full tilt on Kiev. Hope not but there is a lot at stake...
