this is simply not true. This is not Putins war alone, he is backed up by a lot of russian people who actively support his cause, mildly support his politics or don't care at all (which is basically the same)

Of course there are also people who are afraid to speak up, but they are not the majority in this country. Putins raise to power was also backed up by many russians and they a pretty much doing the same thing that nazi germany was doing before and during WW2...

So please stop saying that this is only putins fault...the hate for the west is very real and very deep in russia's society
