Putin:"Et tu Winnie?"
Dudes already got fanart!!! Doesn't matter if real, fake or just exaggerated. He's a meme now.
From what we know so far, we've got an Ace Combat antagonist in RL.
THe man has become a legend.
Lets have Sabaton make a song

Call me when some verifiable info emerges to back this up, the reported footage of Russian Helos in Kiev implies Ukrainian air force is quite hobbled.
He shot down multiple Helicopters and was the Air Support that was helping the ground forces.
He also has a totaal of 6 kills, some saying even more now
He has 6 claims.
We all know how unreliable fighter pilot kill claims can be.
For all we know he could have destroyed one single plane and the Ukrainian gov. is just using him as a morale booster.
It seems he has been spotted many times with many kills

No, China is always waiting to give Russia the Caesar treatment since Stalin kicked the bucket. Remember, China wants Siberia back... and it also doesn't like Russia.
China has far more to lose by being Russia's friend right now (as in 'suffer an economic collapse so hard and so widespread it causes a Nuclear Inter-Dynasitc Period' level of bad) and a lot more to gain to be Russia's enemy.

Would be cool but I don't think Sabaton do anything past WW2.
They have, multiple times. Earlier work but I am sure they will get inspired

‘Panzer battalion’ and ‘Camouflage’ would disagree with you, just as a start.

This is about what I expected, same old same old protestors become “cracks in the facade” according to CNN.
Israel and Taiwan condemned Russia as well.
Israel condemns Russian invasion of Ukraine as a "violation of world order"
It is a significant change in the Israeli position towards the Russia-Ukraine crisis.

Yes and no. From what I can gather, a good portion of the average Russian citizenry is baffled at Putin right now. Not enough to cause a revolution (Putin and associates have locked that down rather hard), but enough that people are asking questions.

Let's be honest, it isn't that far out if Putin caught (and survived) a severe case of COVID, given the 'fun' list of problems you're saddled with for the rest of your life makes you wish you were dead or cause brain damage... at least last I've checked.

Captain X, Zachwon, and Marduk; just to name a few. Seriously, they're not exactly secret about their view on this topic; they want America to go to war with Russia to defend Ukraine.
I'm the sort of leftist that still believes in freedom of speech, in individual liberty, and accountability for one's own actions; and I've stuck to those principles, even as the mainstream left embraced authoritarianism. Again, I haven't been secret about this; I joined just after you did, and I've said this many times before.
