He is the only leader of all the former Soviet countries who openly attempted to save his country from the invisible hand of Russia. That's why he is accused of "throwing his people into the fire". What can I say? I guess he took refuge in Europe, what if? Should he wait another 20 years and buy more weapons from Turkey and try? Of course, the US-EU has crimes, we see the silence of the dishonest country called france, at the moment the business has officially turned to england/usa vs russia, eu is out of the equation, apart from nato support.
