In Russia, if you were in 2014 today, would you approve green men aggression in Ukraine?

if you knew sanctions and anti-sanctions

will nearly bring your economy down.

If you had a magic wand, would you stay friendly with Ukraine and Ukrainians no matter what and let them do whatever they want?

Me and everybody who I know, who approved Polite People (well known as "green men") in 2014, would approve they now and not in Crimea only, but in Kiev and Lvov and Bila Tserkva. Moreover, a lot of people demand Putin to sweep Junta out from Ukrainian Land using all power of Russian Army. Because a half of Russians have relatives in Ukraine. It is hard to watch how people suffer there since Junta got power. But polite Putin will never invade Ukraine. Ukrainians, who support Junta, must cure themselves of fascism by passing through difficulties, poverty, unemployment, economic collapse. Neither EU no Russia need Ukraine which sick with Nazism. After May 2 2014 there was no way to stay friendly with Junta and those who support it. The reports about "sanctions nearly bring your economy down" are greatly exaggerated. We know, "Obama porval ekonomiku Rossii kak Tuzik grelku", and we are laughing at this clown who is Your President.

ЗЫ Прятаться за маской - плохая идея. Вы теперь похожи на Новодворскую в костюме Снегурочки. Смешно и нелепо.

yes, Kate, your style is very distinctive.

Counting information "Russia is the list" during Libya, then Egypt, then Syria events, I would say, it does not matter if those Green men existed or not. And those are oil prices as consequence of structure of Russian economy who are bringing it down. It was well known, that it will happen 100% when oil gets cheaper/new sources of energy will be found/etc... But we will not disappear, unfortunately for some people. Not yet.

The economic problems began well before the 2014 events. And yes, they are the fault of Putin and his government.

Look at Donbass, it could be the same or worse in Crimea. So yes, I approve them defending civilians. As of aggression - I don't care about aggression against political entities if it saves people lives.

I would let the greenmen what they wanna do, i trust Putin not to *ck up tge economy, i would only stay friendly with Ukrainians if they wanted to be a part of Russia (what many people want).
