Arguing that way, do you know who will be the biggest winner of WWII? It's France. Change sides for two times, become a winner in the war, get a place in UN securuty council - with almost no losses or destructions.The suffering of Soviets is something which I feel real compassion towards them. Maybe that is also the root cause why they act so idiotically nowadays, seeing threats where there are non and letting kleptocracy run wild in the country. Loosing 80% of a generation is unimanigible. Even if Finns lost the war, in the end we won. Soviets lost even in victory.
BTW, I can agree with you that many of our power people are corrupt. But at the same time you say that Ukraine, where corruption was twice as high and further tripled after Maidan, is on it's path to civilization and European values bla-bla-bla, that makes my mind blow up. Furthermore, this "kleptocracy" appeared after shocking ultra-liberal reforms of the 90-th, made with the help of American advisers and according to IMF recommendations, when Russia was 100% loyal to West. Such kind of well-wishing disgusts me a lot.
