Reply to comment by Preussensgeneralstab in Britain says Russia likely removing nuclear warheads from missiles and firing at Ukraine by Koeny1

If Russia didnt commit so many war crimes, the western support for Ukraine would have been mostly non-existent. The war has been a total strategic failure. All Russia had to do for a victory was to not kill and torture so many civilians.

The war crimes PROBABLY were not the reason, although they are still a major motivator for the west and the people. The reason is still mostly:

1: Eastern Europe hates Russia with a burning passion

2: Western security depends on Russia losing the war. If Russia wins, the peaceful Europe will be over forever.

3: Ukraine losing will be bad for everyone

Hmm unfortunately you’re wrong. They have committed many atrocities but that only galvanized support for Ukraine publicly. The west would have come to Ukraines aid with or without those war crimes.
