He is 100% wrong because Russia is in Europe (regardless if only a portion) and has been a staple in European history and affairs for the past 300 years. More than half their population live in the portion of Russia that is on the European continent - so what the fukk are you talking about?

I honestly can’t believe dudes are seriously debating if Russia is in Europe or not. I’m at a loss for words and I’m not going to respond any further on this. It’s actually mind boggling how stupid some of you nikkas are

There is no European Continent, Asia is the continent, Europe is at the ass end of it, Russia have more in common with Asians than Europeans, that's why they've always had a closer relationship with them than Europe

“In fact, about 77% of Russia’s approximately 146 million people live in the territory that is considered part of Europe.”
Yeah I misspoke. I know the majority of the population is on the European border. They always reported 3 quarters to 80% lives in western Russia but I saw a documentary that said there are significantly more people in central and eastern Russia than they report and that it’s closer to 66% on the western border not 75-80%

Physically, some of Russia is in Asia. This isn’t debatable


Do they have Asian politics? No. But geographically some of the land is in Asia

But, that's not what @Patrick Kane was saying. It was extremely clear that he was responding to the part about Russia not being in Europe. He never said part wasn't in Asia.

this is a huge oversimplification but since there was a revolution in 2014 ukraine has wanted to move toward a european (like EU) and western sphere of influence and away from a russian sphere of influence. the revolution removed a more pro-russian party from power. after the revolution russia took over a part of ukraine and supported russian separatists in the eastern part who formed these quasi-statelets not internationally recognized. russia is claiming that ukraine joining NATO (which they want to do more since russia started deeboing their shyt in 2014) is an existential military threat but ukraine is nowhere near meeting the requirements to join NATO. you will hear different explanations from different people but i personally think it is mainly because of putins desire to have russian influence over countries that were historically part of the russian empire and USSR and that he considers "really russian"

I realllllyyyyy hate to say it but Ukraine might want to just lay down their guns and give Putin what he wants. The thought of them having a chance against the Russian military is a joke. You now have to think about your citizens. Putin will kill them. He does not give a fukk. The only armies that can fukk with Russia CANNOT get involved militarily. I don't see any other way this is gonna end. Its gonna be Putin in charge without killing a lot of your people OR Putin in charge and killing a lot of your people.
