Popular Post daveAustin Posted March 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 22, 2022 I know it’s not really their fault, but hard to feel much sympathy given what’s happening and certainly some in Thailand will be nationalist and support that maniac. Hopefully Russia will be put down so much that eventually some of those with half an ounce of compassion and empathy will take out the maniac and his band of thugs. The Russian gov needs to join the human race, as do some unmentioned others. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those who have no ties to Russia except the passport usually do denounce what "their" leader does (its not actually their as they did not elect him) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they voted for Putin, they enjoyed all benefits, they tolerate his cruel wars, they did not demonstrate against it as eg Nawalny. Now Russians are the outcasts or Pariahs in our world.

Popular Post Aussieroaming Posted March 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 22, 2022 The Russians should be complaining to their embassy about their sudden predicament. Putin needs sustained pressure from decent Russians who don't support this attack on Ukraine. As for the pro Putin Russians.....well be careful about who you are whining too. Let us hope that Ukraine gets some relief soon. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When they close fb, and other social media, treathning with jail up to 15 years for spreading the truth about the war, and much more should wake up even the worst Putin fanatics that something is wrong, so no excuse there 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post wwest5829 Posted March 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 22, 2022 sad situation for many but certainly the majority of nations have condemned the unilateral invasion of Ukraine by Russia. Main concern and support for the citizens of Ukraine. Yes, saddened about the position of Russians caught up in the worsening economic punishment but I am the bearer of more bad news. There is a fair chance that Russian citizens will be paying for their country's actions for a long time. War reparations on the back of the sanctions are not a new idea .... Continue the human and property damage and the costs will only continue to rise. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not ALL. There are decent brave Russians who oppose Putin and his criminal corrupt regime. Oppositions leader Alexei Navalny in Jail and his followers are being targeted and oppressed. Anti Putin men are chased abroad and assassinated with Polonium (Alexander Litvinenko) or Nerve gas agent (Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in Salisbury -England). I know Russian tourists have never been liked by most western expats but there are decent people among them and should not label them all as pro Putin. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If millions of Russians would show that they disagree with Putin's dictatorships there will be overflowing jails. But there are only a few brave Russians. Not enough for a change. So No Mercy for those who are stranded. A train ticket to Burma or China doesn't cost much. Maybe we should start a go-fund them campaign for buying tickets. ???? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I could feel sorry for them. Know a lady who left non Russian husband & kids in Bkk and flew home to "support" her country. Maybe some of them do. I don't know any so I couldn't say. If they don't there may be reasons. Perhaps they have family or other connections in Russia which could be put at risk if they say the wrong things. Its not a normal democratic country unfortunately.
