Thought I would post this article I came across today. Somehow I am not surprised, I think these maps are created by people who are afraid to tell Putin the truth so maps are made showing a better situation than the reality. This is no different than back in the day where Stalin’s advisors were afraid to tell him the truth because those that did, were killed when it was bad news… even though that person was just the messenger..
In Soviet Russia, the messengers usually ended up falling out of windows.
Any surprises there? It’s kinda like the Russians shooting down 600 Ukrainian helicopters and 300 X-Wings.
I mean, these were the same commanders who told their soldiers to dig trenches in the highly contaminated areas of Chernobyl. Even the locals had to explain to the soldiers where they were and the history of the place.
