    We aren’t asking about the US.

    Tell us if you think Russia is imperialist or not.

    Or does Putin not allow you to criticise Russia without mentioning how bad the US is?

          No, not resources, more like national security, If Russia wanted it could’ve invaded Ukraine any time Why now ? Why not when Zelensky took office or before that ? Hell Russia wanted to be a part of NATO

          When you people say both imperialism bad, I agree, but do you really mean it ?
