> Well, actually it's not, our whole oil imports depend on Russia, adding to that, it was Russia which helped us during the Indo-Pak war of 1971, which we won. The US Navy had sent its aircraft carrier to assist the Pakistani Navy, but due to the intervention of a Russian destroyer, the American strategy was thwarted. Now, India is strong and can defend itself on its own. But when we needed help, they helped us, so we trust them a LOT.
I'm sorry, but trusting the Russians because they helped you 50 years ago is beyond naive.
Another thing us, by halfways supporting the invasion, you're giving credibility to a world order where it is normal to assault other countries, grab their land and turn people into semi-slaves.
I find it very strange that countries that got colonized would be on that team.
(The buying oil is cool though. You're getting it cheap because of sanctions stuff. All we care about it the Russians not earning much on it and they're not.)
