Thanks for this write up. I still can’t say I condone some of Russia’s decisions and posturing even in light of the data you presented, but these data certainly paints a more nuanced picture than people are usually led to believe, I think.

Ukraine had the misfortune of being stuck between two major political powers, and it’s now being torn apart as a result.
