The hatred of Ukrainians is well ingrained into the Ruzzian perception. They observe same or similar religion but very different people. The mutual hatred is hundreds of years old and has nothing to do with NATO expansion or not. Few on this tread know the history of the waring side that goes back at least to the time of the Roman Empire. Most of the people we call Russians are not Russians at all many are Neo-fascist and ultranationalists very corrupt and very frustrated from the fact that their lives are controlled by a small group of impossible to clearly define their character as it is completely uprooted from reality. I had dealings with both sides in the period of 2007 to 2012 even today spoke with my Siberian friend who is worried about Israel. As it happen we where under rocket attack sirens blurring. What many on this tread fail to get the whole war is a result of extreme accumulated anger and hatred by people that where brainwashed for centuries. Most of the region north of Moscow and east of the Volga/Nizhny Novgorod is incontrollable by orderly venues only by fear that region has over 200 ethnic groups with their own heritage and hostile due to history events toward the western part and Europe - why I can only guess - it was all bottled in and now explodes. Every arms manufacturer is putting its arms to test in real war that is all. IMHO the Ruzzians are on the loosing side. As usual the Germans stirred the pot long ago with their "Ost Politic" to gain economic benefits Many participants on this tread make remarks without having any understanding that they discuss a totally different culture and heritage. And try to judge the events based on completely different values and heritage. In the same way the Romans tried to confront the Asian hoards that destroyed the Roman Empire wonder how many ask the question why Constantinople is Istanbul and why there are so many blond blue eyes people there. Same in Ukraine which has at least 3 major religions The opinions written on this tread are not worth the bandwidth they take - it is the same as if I will try to discern the situation in India or China or SE Asia. At lest contrary to others I admit that I am clueless about those regions.

Re <<From what I understand Erdogan's son own's that drone company? Also Russia has no problem shooting them down So overall, meaningless....?>> are you slipping?! Follow the money per Rule #1 of mystery solution, tax payers' money from Ukraine, Russia and likely also Turkey (via export subsidy / tax preferences / whatever) flowing to ... Zelensky, Putin, and Erdogan, if they are acting in concert. If they are not, they would be fools, and they are not. The whole schema can be hubbed by Erdogan, who talks to both Zelensky and Putin. Sweet, if true. Agnostic, because I am guessing how the money can easily flow, and they can easily hit the jackpot of jackpots, a/k/a TMOAJP (The Mother of All Jackpots)
