    In 1945, Europe was liberated by #Canada, #GreatBritain, #USSR, and #USA from the Nazis, the #NSDAP, the #SA, the #SS, ...—insane, megalomaniacal criminals.

    Now, many people in 🇪🇺 #Europe 🇪🇺 will help the people in the #USA get rid of such an insane #dictator as well. 💙

  3. Illia Ponomarenko: "What matters is that 35 years ago, on August 24, 1991, Ukraine did not simply declare its independence from the USSR and finally become a separate country.

    It restored its statehood and independence first proclaimed in 1917–1918 — and drowned in blood by Lenin’s Bolsheviks."

  8. Here's what The Counteroffensive is reading today:

    Russian missile tests were held in the #Kuril Islands, a Russian-held territory which #Japan claims was illegally annexed.

    #Putin visited the area on Aug 13, 2 days before the anniversary of the islands being seized by the #USSR.

  13. 😆 Ah, yes, because when we think of the #USSR, "optimization" is the first word that comes to mind. 📚 Reading a novel about Soviet economic woes and calling it "data-driven"? Sure, comrade, whatever helps you sleep at night, dreaming of five-year plans and #gulags. 😂

  18. It's Estonia Independence day on Aug 20th

    The collapse of the #USSR 35 years ago was largely bloodless - the Afghan war, the arms race with the west, cheap oil and a mismanaged economy left a demoralised military unwilling to enforce the rule of a warped communist system on a bankrupt population.

    Countries controlled from Moscow since WW2 simply walked away - Estonia amongst others. The wreckage of the economy that was left was divided up amongst interested parties (oligarchs) and the political vacuum was filled by the only organisation left "intact" - Federal Security Service of the #Russian Federation - thus #Putin became a dictator with powerful enforcement capabilities.

    The majority of the Russian population want the USSR (or at least the International clout) back - Putin is their man!

    Maybe Wildberries and petrol lines will create the same conditions - Putin can see the writing on the wall.

  23. WHY PUTIN HATES UKRAINE

    Thirty-five years ago today, tanks rolled into Moscow and Soviet TV played Swan Lake on a loop instead of the news.

    It was the beginning of the end for the USSR.

    Our new deep dive looks past the treaties to what daily life actually felt like — empty shelves, vanished savings, a flag coming down over the Kremlin.

    It would have been tough as hell for #Hitler to invade any country without the raw materials supplied by #USSR around the critical time of #1940.

  28. Yes, Joni. The Soviet Union was not a state dedicated to human progress, it was the Russian colonial Empire disguised as #socialism

    Eastern European states are the ”proof in the pudding”: After #USSR collapsed, life expentancy in these states has up to doubled.

    #Russia is a barrier on the way to progress. And even though the USA is imperial too, there is no logic there that lets Russia off the hook for what they have done.
