I can't count the number of people I've spoken to who are surprised to learn Ukraine had been shelling places like Donbas for years. Here's a link to French journalist's, Anne-Laure Bonnel's, documentary from 2016, "Donbas."
Putin was quoted in the NY Times in 2022 that Russia is comfortable with the West of "traditional, mainly Christian values" but not the West's aggressive "neoliberal elites" imposing their "pretty strange" values such as "dozens of genders" and "gay parades".
Doesn't he claim Russian Orthodox as his religion? If so he may well be a true Christian. I know some of their theology isn't the greatest. I know converted catholics and Amish as well even though as a whole most in those groups would deny Salvation thru Christ alone. But most mainstream denominations in the west have also forsaken Christ and His inerrant Word.
After a U.S.-supported violent coup toppled Ukraine's democratically elected government, CIA Director John Brennan visited Kyiv in April 2014.
Shortly after, the new Ukrainian government launched an "anti-terror operation" against its Russian-speaking citizens in Eastern Ukraine.
For eight years leading up to Russia's invasion in 2022, Ukraine's government, with help from the CIA, relentlessly bombed Eastern Ukraine.
Millions of innocent civilians were caught in the crossfire of a geopolitical chess match between Russia and the United States.
This is part of the story often ignored by the Western press.

Exactly!! Yet Putin is viewed as bad by most "conservatives" I know.

I think Putin is closer to Christ than 95% of American so called professing Christian’s!
Agree.
No no no, it was completely unprovoked, the CIA and their Ukrainian puppets were a threat to absolutely no one!
