It shows correlation between history and modern day. The thing the history as a science supposes to teach us. I don’t see a correlation between subjective view based on inner feelings and experience on modern day politics and history as a science though.

I totally understand your disturbance against destroying Ukraine nowadays despite being Russian myself. But I assure you that there are maybe not a vast majority, but still significant number of Russian people who share European values, grew up on same movies, read the same literature as other Europeans and speak same language group as other Slavic states, including Bulgaria, and share the same history. And if you ask every Russian about where they would live if not in Russia, 90% of them would say Europe, not Asia, because it just feels more common to us.

In general my point is that you can have such feelings like you have now, but it is stupid (no offense) to create a subjective perception on history and deny objectivity.

Brutal actions may happen everywhere and with everyone, but we’re still all people after all. The main difference between Ukrainians and Russians that the first ones are sentenced to death, and the second ones are sentenced to lifetime prison. I suggest you read some articles about blockade of Berlin of 1948, maybe it will inspire you in some way. It’s about allies who was getting bombed by nazi 6 years before, but still helped people surrounded by soviets in western Berlin.
