    I've grown up in Italy, Austria, Germany. I've met multiple nationalities, I've always been curious about foreigners.
    When I was a child, I remember that in summer my town was hosting children from the areas around chernobyl; it was still the soviet union at that time and the wall of berlin was still up.
    I've worked with some Russians, emigrated from their country; people that had an interesting childhood.
    In all these 40 years, I've never perceived that my generations (I'm from the '80s) had prejudices against Russia. We have not been grown to have such prejudices by our education systems or through propaganda aimed at the young people.
    I was mostly ignorant about the events after WWII and of the last decades.
    Being someone that is normally not interested in politics and governments, I have never been reached by any strong message against Russia.
    I started getting more involved only this year, after an acquaintance from Ukraine wrote some messages in February, scared about what was going to happen to her.
    It's only then that I realized that the russian government is doing a bad propaganda against the "west" and its unmoral values, together with the orthodox church. Talks about nazists and fascists were being resumed, russian embassies abroad started publishing articles on those extreme ideologies.
    I realized that the older generations might have grown under a higher ideological division between Russia and the western countries, and this division is now being revived.
    I hate the russian government; and not only for the war in Ukraine and for the vicious lies that it uses to hide its wrongdoing. But also for how it threatens the opposition in Russia, both citizens and aspiring political parties. The disrespect that it has for human lives is atrocious.

    My grandfather, who was a child when Russia invaded Finland, used to say, and still says, that Russians are good people who form awful societies.
    His family was forced to leave their home, to evacuate, before the Russian/Soviet army came. They settled to another house in central Finland. During the war, war prisoners were placed in large houses, to work. So my grandpa, then a child, got to know those young soldiers. They were nice, he says, even if their army destroyed his home and eventually took over their old land, which to this day, is still a part of Russia.
    He has nothing against Russian individuals, but everything against the society and regime that took his home and now the homes of so many Ukrainiens. And I throughly agree with him.

      No, it isn't. Democratically elected governments do, by and large, and on the average, reflect the people they represent. Governments that are not democratically elected don't necessarily represent the people by their actions, but they do represent the political apathy, the political immaturity, and the self-centredness of those people.

      Putin could not stop the war after the first phase had failed. Not because of the West. Germans would be more than happy to forgive, forget and go back to business as usual. Putin can't stop because of his own society, the innocent Russian population. They love "small victorious wars". They even have a special term for them (малая победоносная война). But what they don't like are the lost wars. That would mean Putin is not strong anymore and he is not the one to be afraid of.

Streghtening dictatorship, heavy propaganda, manipulating historical facts, more extreme statements from Russia goverment, army growth and subordinate west europe from Russias enenrgy resources was leading to war. 2) How the hell can we be 'russophobic' towards ordinary citizen when before war about 2mln ukrainians and 0,5mln belorousians were working in the Poland and we don't know the differences between Ukrainian, Russian and Belarousian languages.

    I think most thinking people understand the difference between a people and their government. But also hold the people responsible for what their government does in their names. It seems, because of the war, others are less impressed by Russia's boasts of it's military prowess. Are fed up with Putin's threats to use nukes, his aggression, fueled by an ego driven fantasy, and the destabilization his actions have caused around the world. From millions of refugees, to businesses leaving Russia and having to relocate, restructure, and losing assets, to young ,intelligent Russians leaving as fast as they can because they see the writing on the wall for their futures, Putin has damaged his country, alienated most of the world, which now thinks of Russia as an untrustworthy, terrorist nation, and will be facing war crimes charges, isolation, and and a reputation like Nazi Germany's for many years to come. I think Russians should worry less about what others think, and should really be questioning, and facing, the reality of their own consciences, and country, which is a mess.
    Я думаю, что большинство думающих людей понимают разницу между народом и его правительством. Но также считают народ ответственным за то, что делает его правительство от его имени. Похоже, что из-за войны на других меньше производят впечатление хвастливые заявления России о своей военной доблести. Они сыты по горло угрозами Путина применить ядерное оружие, его агрессией, подпитываемой эгоистическими фантазиями, и дестабилизацией, которую его действия вызвали во всем мире. От миллионов беженцев, от предприятий, покидающих Россию и вынужденных переезжать, реструктурироваться и терять активы, от молодых, умных россиян, уезжающих так быстро, как только могут, потому что они видят, что на стене написано их будущее, Путин нанес ущерб своей стране, оттолкнул большую часть мира, который теперь считает Россию ненадежной, террористической страной, и еще много лет будет сталкиваться с обвинениями в военных преступлениях, изоляцией и репутацией, как у нацистской Германии. Я думаю, что россияне должны меньше беспокоиться о том, что думают другие, а должны действительно задаваться вопросом и смотреть в лицо реальности своей собственной совести и страны, которая находится в беспорядке.

      If you think the Russian people is innocent and Putin and his government is solely to blame for this war, you are wrong. A large portion of the Russian population agree with Putin, they dream of an expanded empire, they feel that other countries do not respect Russia properly, OR they have stuck their head in the sand for decades letting Putin do his thing. Inaction and thinking that Putin is not their concern is just as much to blame for this war as anything else.

I do not claim it definitely is the case but the current situation plus what Russia population reveals about itself to us in various ways should at least make the West to reflect upon the question: what if there is not " second Russia" but only this one Russia supportive of its current politics as we can observe it?

      depending on which side to look at. Why is North Korea now a backward country where there are big problems even with food? I will answer. because America. which dares, for spurious reasons, to isolate countries from the world economy. the same case with Venezuela and Cuba, Iran. at one time these countries were the richest in their region. so the fact that people live there like hungry animals is the undeniable fault of America.

    l'm American and l love the Russian people and the culture. l follow a lot of Russian channels and hold no ill will towards the people. l also thought Putin was once a great leader for Russia. That was until he invaded Ukraine. lts really tragic for the world anytime there is senseless violence. One thing that's great about this channel is the quality of the answers, both young and old. If you asked Americans complex political questions you would probably get gibberish as an answer. Also l like the way this channel doesn't have an agenda. We have the same kind of street questioners, but they are always looking to promote a certain political ideology and try to steer the videos to affirm that ideology, instead of being impartial.

    If this channel is anything to go by, foreigners need to make a distinction between individual Russians, and the actions of the Russian government. It is not uncommon for people to not necessarily support their government. For example, I am not particularly enthusiastic about most measures adopted by the Scottish government, and to assume that because I am Scottish, I must support those actions is naive. This channel does excellent work showing the rest of us what the Russian people think, and what they think does not always agree with actions of their government either.

      What this channel shows is that most may disagree with the war in Ukraine, but still support Putin. I'm sure there are many who don't listen to the government propaganda, but the rhetoric has become deeply embedded in society. There comes a point when the rhetoric becomes the people and the people become the rhetoric. It creeps up on a population because it doesn't seem out of place. But make no mistake... it's horrendous.

      Massive difference there bud. Every Scot has a 'real' and equal say in which Scottish government is voted in - the voting system is not rigged. Same goes for the UK government itself. This is NOT the case in Russia. It's voting system has always been rigged - it's people have been brainwashed from birth to be apolitical zombies. They have zero interest in who is in power, even today...obviously, unfortunately!
      However, throughout history, it is always 'The People' who hold ultimate power - and ultimate responsibility for their government's actions. This is a responsibility they cannot offload, ever!
