They don't want to stand up for Russia because they know it is a murderous state responsible for many deaths of Russian and Ukranian soldiers and Ukranian civilians. Russia is bringing about its own destruction in a stupid war.

In this conflict absolutely.

It was Ukraine that started the Donbas war against Russian citizens.

Do I defend Russia in everything?

Of course not, it's an issue by issue thing.

Why all of you on the left think that Ukraine is some beacon of light is astounding to me and shows your ignorance.

They were and are one of the most corrupt nations on the planet.

Their number one export is child sex trafficking followed closely by drugs.

Their entire government has been run by an oligarchy of their version of the mafia.

They are considered the gateway to Europe for illegal activity, everything going into Europe flows through Ukraine.

Ukraine has been a source, transit, and destination country for human trafficking since the early 1990s. Men, women, and children are trafficked for the purposes of forced labor and begging and sexual and other forms of exploitation. The main countries of destination for trafficked Ukrainians have been the Russian Federation, Poland, and Turkey, as well as internal human trafficking within Ukraine. The problem has been exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

Even before Russia’s invasion, Ukraine was already facing an increase in the scale of human trafficking caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing displacement from conflict-affected eastern Ukraine and occupied Crimea. The population is extremely vulnerable, an issue severely exacerbated by Russia’s invasion and the need for millions of people to leave their homes for safety in Ukraine and abroad. Fraudulent labor intermediaries/recruiters may take advantage of the war to exploit at-risk people.

Prior to Russia’s invasion in February 2022, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Mission in Ukraine[1] estimated that more than 300,000 Ukrainians had suffered from human trafficking since 1991. An estimated 46,000 Ukrainians were trafficked during 2019-2021; 29,000 abroad and 17,000 in Ukraine.

Many of these Russians ended up in neighboring countries, setting up new lives and businesses, and ended up boosting the economies of these nations, the independent Russian media outlet Novaya Gazeta reported on Friday.

The GDP of the South Caucasus — a region comprising Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia — grew by an outsized 7% in 2022, according to the World Bank. This far outpaced the 5.6% growth that World Bank economists had predicted.

Armenia — once known as the Silicon Valley of the Soviet Union — saw its 2022 growth spike to 12.6%, per the World Bank. The institution's economists had forecast a 7.0% growth for the country last year.

Demonstrating once again, the number one factor impacting growth, if getting out from under Putin's rule.

That is big reason why Putin felt he had to attack Ukraine. The country was showing the early stages of a hockey stick type growth curve, when Putin's Oligarchs were pushed out, and with a massive influx of foreign investments just starting to flow in that curve was only getting to get more sharp for Ukraine and thus more bleak for Putin rule.
