Ukraine vs. Russia? Ukraine vs. Putin by SF

I am Russian, and I was really sad to find out about the attack on Ukraine. Because of Putin, pretty much the whole world hates Russia. But I have something to say about that. The people I know who are Russian, are loyal, funny, and kind. I understand why people have a reason to hate Russia, I do. But Russia altogether isn’t the one that you need to hate. It is all because of Putin.

Russia as a whole didn’t decide to attack Ukraine, Putin made that decision, and the soldiers had no choice but to obey. Putin has gained so much power over the years, that isn’t a president, but more like a Tsar. (A Russian king) He is a dictator, and I won’t deny that. Ukraine asked for peace, offered it, but Putin declined. Because the truth is, he won’t give up until Ukraine is part of Russia again. He is ambitious in the worst way.

No one can stand up to him, because no one wants a nuclear attack on themselves, or their people. Even America which also has nuclear bombs can’t do anything about it, because if they hit, Putin will hit back.

You shouldn’t hate Russia, Russia is amazing and beautiful. In the city, there is a set of buildings called St. Basil’s Cathedral. The buildings are colorful, and big, and the roofs are shaped like Hershey’s Kiss, with the most amazing decorations and patterns. During the winter, it all looks like something in a fantasy, a winter wonderland. During the night, there are so many lights, and it is so colorful, and a breath-taking sight. And in the mountains, there is an amazing view, and you can see so far into the distance.

Putin made all of these decisions, not Russia. There are thousands, hundreds of thousands of civilians, who are just trying to live their lives, but are getting so much hate. You shouldn't go against Russia, you should go against Putin.
