Do not wait for the Russians to repent. After the defeat they will want revenge and revenge
They had every reason: hunger, cold, carpet bombardment, violence from the Nazis, forced mobilization, then occupation, violence from the Soviet troops, destroyed cities. The overwhelming majority accused of their suffering, not the Hitler regime, but the anti -Hitler coalition. It took a whole generation to realize the Germans that they would rise the abyss. Whole generation for repentance. After the final defeat, the Russians will consider themselves the most affected people.
After all, it was humiliated and beaten by Putin, forcibly driven into the war, they killed them with thousands of them, they will sit in starvation and cold, they will experience the epic disintegration of the vast empire. But do not wait for them to repent. First, this concept is not built into Russian culture, because they have only a couple of external features from Christianity and they live according to Dostoevsky, not by the Bible.
Secondly, they will not have an occupation, so no one will force them to watch documentaries about Bucha and Mariupol. Third, they do not have democracy that will lead to the power of responsible leaders-such as post-war leaders of Germany. Fourth, they do not have a Marshall plan for restoration and modernization (although Navalny's supporters already require it for defeated Russia).
After all, they do not have thinkers who will make a difficult work for awareness and repentance, as German philosophers and writers did, because Russian thinkers have abandoned their mission. And they do not have nations because they are still an empire. Undenant people who consider themselves to be the most affected, inevitably focus on the image, revenge and revenge. This system of equations has only one solution. The empire should cease to exist.
