The Russians think they just have to kill enough Ukrainians, win the war, and then their trading relations will get back to normal.
Today, my generation has a very positive view of Germans, but I remember growing up in the 1980's in Denmark, where some of my dad's business relations still would not do deals with anyone from Germany.
That was forty years after World War II and Hitler's occupation of Denmark.
Forty years — this is the kind of anger the Russians have drawn upon themselves.

@randahl Probably much longer than 40 years. Ukraine still has survivors of Stalin's Holodomor genocide walking around, and most Ukrainians have neither forgiven nor forgotten it. This latest in a long line of Russian atrocities only adds fuel to their rage. I'm not a Ukrainian, but I have a Ukrainian great-grandfather and a Polish great-grandmother. #SlavaUkraini

Holodomor survivor: 'I want to witness this victory'

Liubov Yarosh survived Soviet dispossession, the Holodomor famine and World War II. At 102, she is living through war once again, supporting Ukrainian troops in their fight against Russia's war of aggression.
