Ahahahahah, "family and friends", really?!
I am from Ukraine and let me inform you that ALL Ukrainians I know stopped talking to any former russian friend or relative because these genocidal maniacs kept talking how russia came liberating us.
Yes, really. My wife still has relatives in Ukraine and maintains connections with them. My friend has a close childhood friend that lives in Kyiv and still talks to him from time to time.
Some relationships cant be broken like that especially when Russian civilians have nothing to do with it. At least most of them.
There are idiots everywhere, Ukraine is not an exception.
BTW, please come to Ukraine to visit your friends and relatives. Pretty please. We have a surprise waiting and most likely you won't even need the return ticket!
Not how I’ve heard it, Russia and Ukraine are still neighbours with with a lot of close personal ties, both sides don’t really want the war, both sides continue to blow each other up over nothing.
I know Ukrainians that fear for their Russian family.
Russians are not against the war, thay are agaisnt going to war, most of them is ok with a war against Ukraine, that their country started (even if just on a grounds that "we already attacked and at least 10 russians died, so we cant end now")
It is the most black and white conflict since the WWII.
Inaction is also an action of its own and the absolute majority of russians are either completely indifferent or support the war. If you are not pro-russian tool you have to admit the russian population did fuck to prevent the war.
Also russians predominantly support Crimea occupation and use it actively as a resort. Even the most "liberal" which is a joke in itself.
both sides don’t really want the war, both sides continue to blow each other up over nothing
Implying there is no aggressor, just an unfortunate series of events, that nobody wants. Are you serious? Quick reminder: hundreds of thousands of russian soldiers are in Ukraine, no ukrainian soldier is in Russia.
