I think it's a clickbait channel & that loads of western brands announced their departure from Russia in early March, incl IKEA. Pro-west Russians are sad & that's not necessarily a bad thing for the country.

The ruble move by Putin holding the enonomy up by a thread. We should have seen a total collapse of the economy..... it's comming obviously, only so much you can do! 

 

Europe has demostrated a willingness to suffer hard with russian sanctions and is likely to continue for years. Europe is taking a major gut punch.... major...... way beyond reason, no one in their right mind would cut their own wrists for another nation!

 

I for one hope the west keeps up the hard stance even though it means bleeding money! Ending any war between nations in Europe is paramount! 

 

It's way to dangerous!

the stance the west has taken so far has been to escelate & extend the conflict in Ukraine.

if you're keen on no war in Europe you'd want to see the west get behind a diplomatic solution, no?

Dan, you're saying that as if giving Putin what he wants here would do anything but embolden him. Please explain why you think it would end with Dunbas.

Very informative video with honest commentary. Watch til the end where videographer drops the social façade and shares what he and others are feeling inside.  Russians have a history of suffering, so you can imagine the alarm bells going off in their heads just about now.
