If you actually cared about them, you should do something about Russia's short pathetic clown of a dictator. Then Russia would have a chance at respect on the world stage.
Right now, the entire rest world would be better off if Russia didn't exist. You let Putin make that so.
Your own country is not a dictatorship yet it deals with Azerbaijan and Turkey. So you are responsible for that, democracy and all. I suggest you fix that first, then blabber about what I do and don't do, which you don't know anyway. Right now you are a valid target for that "hit them where they don't expect it" option that the weaker side always has.
Iraq was not good, but the US didn't just bomb everything to hell, it also built a lot of new infrastructure and invested money and resources back into the local population.
Can you even imagine Russian rebuilding anything for Ukrainians? Can you imagine Russia spending money to make life for Ukrainians better?
Russia is full on the #1 most terrorist dictator state in the entire world.
What country is Turkey invading and destroying right now?
Syria, Artsakh, Cyprus.
Who is Turkey threatening with nukes?
It doesn't have nukes, but it's threatening its every neighbor, especially Greece and Armenia.
What country is Saudi Arabia destroying right now?
Yemen.
What country is Saudi Arabia threatening with nukes?
It doesn't have nukes, but it was threatening Iran all the time until their recent rapprochement.
Other than these, one is a fascist genocidal horde and another a medieval kingdom with beheadings and sharia law, both allied to NATO, though. Russia is just a very big mafia state in comparison.
Russia is objectively the worst of all, by far.
Why are you repeating something you can't support with facts?
Maybe you think Ukraine has more value than Syria or Yemen or Artsakh due to it being "European"? For me a human life is a human life, but if we differentiate them, then civilization-wise compared to people of these countries Ukrainians (and Russians) are almost savages.
It's not about numbers. For example, I don't think that if n+1 lives of your compatriots can be saved by sacrificing n of mine (or n/10 of mine), then it's better than vice versa.
Other than that, more than 2.5 mln of Armenian, Greek, Assyrian and Yazidi lives are not yet avenged since the end of the XIX century and the beginning of the XX century, and their lands not returned to the rightful owners. You are mistaken if you think there's an expiration date, and that Turkey's allies (as in any NATO country) are immune from this responsibility.
Don’t be a hypocrite, follow your own rules and back yourself up with facts and statistics as why why Turkey is worse than Russia.
I don't think refusing to do this would make me a hypocrite, there's nothing except your words to support that idea.
What you're saying is that you think Russia isn't evil because Ukrainian lives are worth less than other lives. You excuse Russia from large-scale murder, and large scale nuclear threat.
It's pretty clear what your agenda is. You're pro-Russia terrorism.
