You used an image the portray Putin as some kind of hero, and talking about victims off the Dombas ignoring simple facts like even today the dombas isn't flattened, very much in contrary to Ukrainian cities Russia invaded.
Pulling other conflicts in doesn't strengthen your argument, thy to uphold your original point instead of just adding more bullshit to the hot mess or just admit you're once again wrong.
No Russia agreed with new borders under Gorbachev, just because Putin retrospectively thinks ''i don't like that'' because he wants to see himself as Josef Stalin doesn't make it any more justified.
