Some #Soviet history for you:
The technological heart of the #USSR was #Ukraine
#Dnipropetrovsk (aka #Dnipro) was nicknamed "Rocket City" during the #ColdWar
So when #Russia invaded Ukraine, Ukrainian innovation answered. Russia has been paying for that miscalculation ever since, and will pay a lot more for their colossal error
Ukrainian ingenuity will win this stupid war

@benroyce That’s why Putin is desperate. Moscow without Kyiv is just oppression, theft, spies & violence. Most things ”Russian” aren’t from Moscow, but russianised through imperial coercion. Even the name of the state is!
When Muscovy & Novgorod merged in turn of 1500’s, Moscow’s Tšar simply assumed the title of ”King of all Rus”, which was the name of a Ukrainian civilisation from before the Mongols.
We all know Russians cheat & steal, but they even stole their origin story!!
is finland ready to secure karelia?
or maybe also the kola peninsula with your neighbors
i know it's russified now, and russia's chance of collapse is tiny
but it's not zero, and it grows daily as long as this stupid war continues
