I'm not sure. To them, this Ukraine situation is an existential threat to their country, meaning that NATO and the West, if they continue to push east, will eventually threaten Russia and throw it back into the failed status that it was in the 1990s under Yeltsin. Only this time, they will go all out into breaking up Russia and destroying their culture. The West does a poor job of understanding just how important Ukraine is. And, the West has zero consideration for the security concerns of Russia, yet countries like the US, Israel, Turkey and Saudi Arabia can make all kinds of military moves that are justified by their particular security concerns and the whole world is supposed to simply oblige them.
Those days and that level of hypocrisy are coming to an end... and it would be good for humanity, including us here in America because it would help to bring an end to our MIC and war based foreign policy that has driven us to the verge of bankruptcy/insolvency. It will also kill the entire green agenda movement as the normies on Main St USA realize that for now (for now, not saying never), we do not have a practical substitute for fossil energy or nuclear power. The leaders running the West are all incompetent... not a statesman or pragmatist in the entire lot. They care more about advancing their agenda than they do the immediate needs of the people in their own countries. The only true nationalists and pragmatists out there are Putin, Xi, Modi, Orban and maybe a handful of others that are starting to breakaway from this wicked Western system.
Oh, and it isn't just about economics. We here in the West have a wicked culture that needs to be destroyed with all of the grooming of kids, LGBTQ+ nonsense and the destruction of the traditional nuclear family. None of the leaders in the West are pushing and promoting these values. That is another reason why the West needs to fail in their endeavours. They are the enemies of humanity.
