Hi dear Ukrainian friend, sorry for stealing this comment, since I can't reply a non-question comment to the IAmA thread.

I'm Russian myself, and feel so very very sorry for the situation you are in right now. From the very beginning of Maidan I was worrying about your nation, same as all my friends. At the end of the day, Ukrainians and Russians are friends, at the end of the day most of us have either relatives or friends on both sides, and before this hell have happened, I didn't even think that all this hatred can come up. I still can't believe in what's happening, and what terrifies me the most, is how much people were separated by it. Suddenly, out of nowhere, there are so many Russians hating Ukrainians and vice versa, I've heard heart breaking stories about families being torn apart just because older parents can't comprehend that their children, who moved to Moscow to live and work and have their families here years ago don't want to move back, calling them "Putin sluts" and not wanting to have anything in common with them anymore. Things happening right now is not something, that should be happening in the modern society. As for the last catastrophe, I personally find it horrifying to see, that instead of realising, that this conflict led to deaths of hundreds of innocent people, that maybe now we all should see how pointless the whole situation is, that it should be stopped, higher-ups and radical supporters just having a pointing-blaming game.

Once again, I know how hard it is to be caught in the middle of it right now, and I really want to apologise for all the hurtful things that were said and done to your nation by mine. Just want to use this moment to let you know, that not all Russians are blinded by propaganda induced hatred, for the most part we just want for this war to be over with. Please stay strong, the end of it is near, don't forget that government in bot our countries has nothing in common with actual people.

Держитесь, друганы, мы скоро прорвёмся, главное не терять человечность. Миру мир, война хуй, Путин ест детей.

As for people building stadiums, how many illegal immigrants are there? I mean people from Tadzhikistan and such. Or did they actually hire professional workers? Thanks.

So much woosh, it's incredible!
