Ah you think they don’t care about public opinion in the West? It would make sense that they do, because Ukraine on the other side is heavily invested in keeping up sympathy (and weapon deliveries…) for their cause in the West
The west has made it pretty clear that the only language the west understands is violence. Russia tried to negotiate with the west for many years and it got nowhere. Now it decided to assert itself militarily, and it will dictate its terms to the west.
While a lot of focus is on the physical war in Ukraine, a much bigger global conflict is unfolding on the economic front. The west made a huge miscalculation regarding the nature of Russian economy and relative dependence between the two powers. Now, western economists are starting to realize the scope of the mistake and western countries are increasingly looking for an off ramp from the conflict.

Thry really dont care because they dont need anything from the so called west.
Ukraine’s government is a Western puppet. Russia is not.
