They ran a shitty corrupt government, tried to conquer eastern Europe, failed, renamed themselves to “Russian Federation”, and are now trying to recapture lost states while feeding people into a never ending meat grinder.
By this logic the Roman empire should just be called the Roman republic. The systems of governance might be similar and both be abhorrent, but the USSR isn’t the same as the Russian federation
But that was never the subject of the discussion. The USSR, and the Russian Empire before it, did successfully conquer Eastern Europe. That’s a historical fact. Whether you agree that this conquest made that land rightfully theirs is another topic, in which I have no interest.
The people in Russia have no legal way to challenge their government. Thanks, USSR.
what it has todo with USSR?

I don’t see how modern Russia is still the USSR. Could you explain?
Putin is desperate to restore Russia to its former USSR glory. That’s why he wants Ukraine so badly.
How so if it was indeed occupied for years?
Germany occupied Poland for years. Doesn’t make it theirs.

Then let’s end this discussion here.
To end the discussion, just stop replying lol.
