Trust me, no one likes Russia.

Most see it as lesser evil due to 90s.

You will also hear an argument "Who did Russia invase while US was sowing death across Middle East?"...

Of course with whole Ukraine deal argument shifted to "Well if US can act as world police so can Russia".... And these people are not majority. We dont go to East for better life and freedom, but to the West.

We'd be most happy.if EU actually stood by their democratic values and join them gladly if that were the case.

But as seen with how tbey keep financing Vucic it's just unacceptable at this point.

The global war on terror in the 2000's has really hurt the credibility of the collective west. Especially the Iraq invasion. I totally understand it if people think it's hypocritical to call out invasions with no UNSC support if you yourself just did that 2 decades prior.
