And that’s unfortunate for them.
The Russian state is still hurting other people, they get some of the backlash. C’est la vie.
If there is 0 motivation to ‘rectify the issue with leadership’ then there is 0 accountability at all.

What backlash do all Americans, all Palestinians, all Israelis, all Chinese, all French, and many more deserve?

Don’t know, but if they want to avoid that backlash there’s literally 1 person they can remove to fix it.
Or let me guess, Germans in 1945 didn’t deserve the cruelty they got from the red army either?

Good idea, I expect you hold the same standard for all Americans, French, Israelis, Chinese, and Palestinians too
You’re right, they didn’t. Shockingly, being cruel to civilians and conscripts isn’t cool. If “lashing out against oppressors” is okay then I’m sure you supported what happened in Rwanda? What about the Khmer Rouge killing foreigners?
