Sadly, Zhanna has no understanding of political realities, international relation any understanding of the past 30 years than what she has heard debated by Moscow trolls on Russian TV. I have spent the past 30 years living in Russia and surviving these extremely naive and simply wrong views. I have had 1000s of discussions/arguments with people who have absolutely zero ability to understand that what they are saying is pure horse shit. BUT, Zhanna, like most extremely misinformed people in many other countries will always look at things throught the lens of their own country's reality. The problem is, Russia's present gets regularly erased by some shithead corrupt leader who is aging, sick or bored--30 ago the Soviet Union collapsed and the blames goes 100% to the Russian nation; 30 years later, the "good life" earned despite all of the terror, the crime, the corruption is yet again being erased for no other reason that some imagined "threat." NATO NEVER would have attacked Russia, still won't and all we ever wanted was Russia to just pull it's head out of it's ass. Finally, Zhanna is a very TYPICAL RUSSIAN in that they can NEVER accept blame for anything and will ALWAYS blame everyone else but themselves or their government. It's not a war in Ukraine, it's a jihad. https://medium.com/politically-speaking/the-pride-of-russia-is-a-potemkin-village-5f64722d9435
