Empire’s mistake. Famous Russians are speaking about aggression in the Crimea
Crimean military conflict may become personal “Afghanistan” for Volodymyr Putin
Despite the power of the state propaganda in Russia, many influential and popular Russians do not support military aggression in the territory of the Crimea. Famous actors, writers and Russian opposition politicians spoke out against violence on the peninsula.
M.M. Zhvanetskiy(Russian author and comedian, best known for his shows targeting different aspects of the Soviet and post-Soviet everyday life) :
"It seems to me that the Russians are insanely jealous of the Ukrainians.
Because they managed to overthrown the regime of swinish, brazen thieves, who crossed the line. It does not mean that the new ones won’t appear.
However, they shall know that there is a counter-force, which can fight back.
The insecure majority of Russians justifies its inaction, its hatred and its powerlessness by the “wish for stability," by the assumed fact that “all of them there are Bandera followers and fascists”, etc. In reality though, it’s nothing but jealousy that Ukrainians could, let themselves do it, did not remain silent, and did not eat the dust... Eventually, yes, all of you will be poverty struck in that European Union!..
Yeah, as if everyone was a fucking rich man in the Customs Union! "
