Every time Russians whine about multi-visas, it's safe to remember the context. This is today's funeral procession for Ivan, a Ukrainian born in 1993, who could have been alive and well if Russia were a normal country. Maybe, he also wanted to travel. Russians can stuff it.

"It's not just a security issue - it's also a moral issue. While Ukrainians are dying, Russians are spending their holidays in Europe. " - Estonian Interior Minister Igor Taro called on EU countries to tighten their visa policy toward Russian citizens. "A very troubling sign is that the number of visas issued to Russians in Europe is growing, which is ridiculous. Because it's not just a security issue - it's also a moral issue. While Ukrainians are dying, Russians are spending their holidays in Europe. It's just not logical at all. The non-binding measures have produced non-binding results, and it just can't continue like this. I think there should be a ban on tourist visas for Russians, at least for as long as this war continues, because Russians are traveling as if nothing has happened. And that's exactly what the Kremlin wants Russians to believe: 'It's okay, it's just a small special operation, it's not a big deal, and we can carry on with business as usual.' So we have to squeeze Russia really hard."

APPLEBAUM: Trump is not somebody who really thinks strategically, and he reacts to whatever makes him feel, in a given moment, like he's the winner. I think Russians probably cultivate that. Russians have also been offering Trump and business people close to Trump some kind of business deal after war in Ukraine ends, if they can end it in a way that's advantageous to Russia. So, Russians are anxious to cultivate Trump in order to make that happen.

APPLEBAUM: Putin presented a fake image of Russia to the world. He talks about himself as leader of traditional society. In fact, divorce rates are very high in Russia, abortion is very common, very few Russians go to church, and less than 5% of Russians have ever read a Bible. So it's not an especially religious or traditional culture, but Putin has made himself the face of that idea because it's politically advantageous. He uses it both to build support, to court, and to win over sympathizers in the West, and maybe he uses it at home as well. It looks a little bit like how in the 1930s Soviet communists also sold a vision of the Soviet Union to Americans and Europeans about how marvelous it was and how they had discovered a new kind of political system. If you've never been to Russia, Russia is a large country, it's far away, so you can imagine a lot of things about it. You can create a kind of imaginary Russia, an imaginary Soviet Union. Especially if you only visit Moscow and St. Petersburg, like most tourists do. But most of the people who admire Russia haven't even been to Moscow and St. Petersburg. It's very similar today. You have a part of European right and American right who have this imaginary Russia that they use as a symbol, without understanding that it has no relationship to reality.

Why Putin is so popular in Russia: Already at his inauguration, he expressed the sentiment that many Russians know. Show a moment of weakness and the enemy will force you to your knees. Time and again, Russians have seen how true this is in their history. In the West, they refuse to understand this feeling. They simply don't take Russians seriously, or attribute motives to them that they don't have. And then it's war. Because Russians don't bend. It is a proud people.

Today, the leader of the Russian Volunteer Corps (RDK) was killed. He fought for the happiness, freedom, and prosperity of Russians, even though many Russians rejected him because of their own indoctrination. He understood that Russia is a wealthy country and that this money could have gone to ordinary people instead of wars. He wanted to live in a democratic Russia, without empires and without sick, senile politicians, and he fought for that vision. He was killed by his own people — killed while they were defending their own poverty.

A well-known Ukrainian psychologist calls on Ukrainians to speak the truth. “It’s safe to hate Russians,” she says, “but talking truths about what is tearing the country apart is very dangerous.” However, we all must talk about what is happening! Listen!!! This is another Ukrainian woman who is not afraid to speak the truth! Natalia Kholodenko

🇷🇺 A Former Russian Vice Prime Minister on Russia’s Inevitable End Former Russian Vice Prime Minister Poltoranin says that death for Russia will come in any case. He believes that Putin will definitely not win this “special operation”. This will lead to the death of Russia. And even if Putin were to win, that would also provoke the death of Russia. Fascism would begin in Russia. But it is beneficial for Russians for Ukraine to win. He also says that Russia needed to invent a reason to attack Ukraine, which is why they fabricate various lies about nationalists — and Russians swallow this lies without any problem, while the main enemy of the Russian people is Putin himself.

If Russia uses a nuclear weapon against a NATO country, then this is what will happen to Russia in response. About 45 million Russians will be vaporized in the first hour. Not much of a life remaining for the other 100 million. Maybe the people of Russia should stop supporting Putin and deescalate the conflict?

HOST: Do you think Trump is pro-Russian? APPLEBAUM: I think he's pro-Putin. He admires leaders who have no checks and balances, who aren't part of democratic system, who are in control of the media. He also had very long business relationship with Russians. They were among the most important investors in his apartments in the 1990s and 2000s. He also has kind of idealized image of Russia. Funnily enough, I don't think it has anything to do with conservative values. I think it's just because he likes this strongman ideal. And because he's grateful to Russians for having built his business, and maybe because he expects to do business with Russia in the future.

🇷🇺 SCOTT RITTER: “IF YOU’VE NEVER BEEN TO RUSSIA, MAYBE DON’T LECTURE THEM” Former UN weapons inspector, Scott Ritter: "I've been to Russia extensively. I actually speak the Russian language, and I find your description of Russia insulting. I think most Russians would too. If you haven't been to Russia, if you don't speak the Russian language, maybe you shouldn't start throwing around accusations at the Russians about what kind of society they have, because I've been there. It's a pretty damn good society. But if you're taking CIA money for the purpose of undermining the Russian government, you might run into a problem with Russian law enforcement."

ZELENSKYY: It was the Russians who destroyed their own gas pipeline while trying to demolish Ukrainian energy infrastructure, so Hungary should have directed their claims to Moscow instead. “Who destroyed it (the Druzhba pipeline)? Ukrainian Armed Forces or the Russians? Well, who did this? The Russians. There should at least be some, well, I don't know, some... there should be at least some humanity. So you tell them, send a signal to the Russians to stop destroying Ukrainian energy infrastructure with their missiles. But instead, they just make accusations (to Ukraine) So it's a political question. But we will fulfill all our responsibilities” - UA president on Thursday, April 9th.

BROWDER: Ukrainian isolation of Crimea is a humiliation for Russia. They're finding themselves in positions they thought were perfectly defended, that are no longer defensible. It is going to cause great pain to Russians, level of pain neither Russians nor Putin were expecting. Ukrainians have now figured out that they can isolate Crimea economically by ensuring no goods go in or out, because they are blowing up the trucks as they try to enter. They are also making it impossible for the soldiers stationed in Crimea to be resupplied. I think this could have a very negative effect on Russia’s ability to continue defending Crimea.

Before you even think about giving anything to Russia, remember the cost of this occupation: The sound of children crying in basements, kids starving, adults begging for a safe corridor because Russia was bombing them — but Russia wouldn’t let them leave. Almost no one from the video survived. They would have been alive, well, and home if Russia hadn’t come.

The West is betting that if it says "Russia is losing" enough times before Duma election, Russians will eventually vote as though it were true. The strategy is psychological because the battlefield has not delivered the result they wanted. Convince the public that the country has already lost, and maybe the ballot box can finish what sanctions and pressure could not (Spoiler: NO). Something Western strategists still don’t understand about Russians: they know when they are being worked. Watch FULL here:
