Lithuania has been punching so far above their weight class it’s insane. If you look at who supports Ukraine the hardest, it’s countries who used to live under Russian/soviet boots. They know exactly what’s at stake

Putin's made it very clear that he considers not just Ukraine, but the entirety of the Soviet Union to be in the Russian "sphere of influence."

I know that's what you meant but with some Russians claiming that Ukraine isn't actually a legitimate sovereign country I feel the need to correct things like this.

Except Hungary. After USSR raped their country they still spoon feed pro-russian propaganda to their citizens.

I agree, although neither Ukraine or Poland are small countries. Poland has around 50 million people, and Ukraine around 40 million, Russia has 130 million.

I agree. I hate how reddit users use quotes nonchalantly to make up their hypothetical conversations which then confuses the reader into thinking that that was a real quote.
