I think it’s important to understand that Marxist-Leninists should be supporting the people of both countries, rather than picking one of two capitalist states to back. I understand that Russia has its excuses for doing this, and the Ukraine government has its excuses for what it has done, but it’s important to remember that they are both capitalist countries in the age of imperialism; what they are really after is power. Please feel free to correct me if you believe I got anything wrong.
Russia’s actions may not be for the sake of fighting imperialism but the end result is a hit to Western imperialism so their intention doesn’t really matter if you’re gonna talk about that
How is it a hit to western imperialism? Based on our current knowledge ukraine was never to actually join NATO. The west wanted russia to attack. At this point it is naive to think that the ukraine invasion was not in the interest of the west.
Pushing Russia and other countries (like India) closer to China + anti-imperialist bloc. Even Saudi Arabia declined talks from Biden but talked to Putin and China. Ofc it’ll take a lot longer to see how it all plays out but so far it doesn’t look bad
