    Ok that is your opinion but do they agree that Ukraine is a separate independent country and do they honor the boundaries agreed to those states such as Ukraine, Belarus, Russia and maybe other former USSR states such as Kazakhstan?

    What I want is for Russians to be good neighbors by staying on “their side of the fence”. I believe that this war and the terrorism that Russia perpetrated against Ukraine will cause hatred towards Russia for a couple generations.

    it is necessary to rename Russia to the Moscow state,
    and Belarus, Ukraine, Lithuania and Poland are historical allies

    Don't let Comrade Pooteen hear that, then he'll be very upset.

    Ukraine Conflict Updates
    Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, June 1, 2023

    Click here to read the full report.
    Key Takeaways

    • Russian forces conducted another series of missile strikes on Ukraine overnight on May 31 to June 1 and during the day on June 1.
    • Elements of the all-Russian pro-Ukrainian Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) and Freedom of Russia Legion (LSR) reportedly conducted another raid into Belgorod Oblast on June 1.
    • Russian officials and milbloggers’ responses to the limited raid in Belgorod Oblast are indicative of a continued heightened anxiety within the Russian information space regarding the war in Ukraine.
    • Chechen commanders and officials launched a concerted attack on Wagner Group financier Yevgeny Prigozhin on June 1 in a likely attempt to undermine Prigozhin’s appeal.
    • Prigozhin responded to the attacks claiming that he will continue to voice his opinions until Russian MoD officials are punished for their mistakes in planning the invasion of Ukraine
    • Chechen attacks on Prigozhin’s character may be a part of the Kremlin’s efforts to discredit and undermine Prigozhin as his forces withdraw from the frontlines.
    • Russian forces conducted offensive operations northeast of Kupyansk and northwest of Svatove.
    • The tempo of Russian and Ukrainian offensive operations in the Bakhmut direction remains low as of June 1, and Russian forces conducted limited ground attacks along the Avdiivka-Donetsk City line.
    • Russian forces did not conduct any confirmed ground attacks along the southern axis.
    • The Russian State Duma rejected a draft law that would have granted mobilization exemptions to candidates and doctors of the science.
    • Russian occupation authorities announced that regional elections in occupied territories will take place on September 10.
    • Ukrainian Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin announced on May 31 that Ukraine is investigating over 2,900 crimes against children committed by Russian forces. . . . .
    A Ukrainian military official discussed Ukrainian artillery strikes along the southern axis on June 1. Ukrainian Tavria Defense Force Grouping Commander Brigadier General Oleksandr Tarnavskyi stated on June 1 that Ukrainian artillery elements conducted 832 fire missions in the Tavriisk direction (Zaporizhia and Kherson oblasts) in the last 24 hours.[58] Zaporizhia Oblast occupation official Vladimir Rogov and a prominent Kremlin-aligned milblogger reported on June 1 that Ukrainian artillery and helicopter activity noticeably intensified in Zaporizhia Oblast over the past 24 hours.[59]

    Ukrainian forces continue to operate on the Dnipro River delta’s islands. Geolocated combat footage posted on June 1 shows Russian artillery strikes against Ukrainian forces – likely reconnaissance elements – on the northwestern part of Velykyi Potemkin Island.[60] . . . .

    Ukrainian Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin announced on May 31 that Ukraine is investigating over 2,900 crimes against children committed by Russian forces.[69] Kostin stated that Ukraine has registered 19,400 cases of illegal deportations of Ukrainian children, noting that the figure is likely much higher as Ukraine has almost certainly not recorded all cases.[70] Kostin stated that 483 Ukrainian children have been killed and 989 wounded as a result of Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine.[71] . . . .

    I am not on the ground in Ukraine so from my vantage point in the US I see as the Ukrainians revolted against the use of the Russian language in Ukraine because of Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. There are a significant segment of Russian speaking Ukrainians who are serving in the Ukrainian armed forces fighting against Russia along with Ukrainian speaking Ukrainians.

    From my view point here in the US as an American of Ukrainian decent it is Putin’s terrorist invasion of Ukraine that united Ukrainians.

    You appear to be in Ukraine so I am not disagreeing with you I respectfully over my perspective.

    True but the Russified Ukrainians speak Russian. My understanding is that Zalenskyy grew up speaking Russian as his mother tongue but he learned Ukrainian. There must be many more like him in Ukraine who will spoke Russian as a primary language but will make every effort to learn to use Ukrainian. I surmise that those Ukrainians who grew up speaking Russian
    may transform to speaking Ukrainian but will likely still think in Russian.
    I spoke only Ukrainian until about age 3 which was a young age but I think in English. Since my Ukrainian language skills are limited to conversational Ukrainian I can force myself to think in Ukrainian for a short time and I suppose that will be the case for those Ukrainians who will start to use Ukrainian.
