You don't oppose them now? Putin's regime isn't even delivering for Russia. They tried to safeguard themselves from NATO threats, only to cause mass migration of working age men, kill at least 50k of their own soldiers, and caused NATO to expand and be strengthened. Hell, Ukraine will probably join NATO once the invasion is over. They got overconfident over how easily they took Chrimea and thought they could just blitz the rest of the country, failing to realize that Ukraine had prepared over the past decade and that most of Ukraine would see them as invaders. They fucked over their own imperial ambitions while accomplishing basically nothing.
