me and most of the developing world have mixed feelings about the war in ukraine. at the very least it's white people's problems. at the limit we're pissed by the west trying to rally us behind a country that stopped black people from leaving when the invasion came and that is receiving many times the amount of help that many of us have received during catastrophes, against a country that, wicked as it can be, never really messed with our internal affairs.
that being said, this is war and russia cannot complain that it didn't knew what was coming. deal with it (spoiler: they will).

with dutch assistance, i'd say.
