When Americans & Europeans talk about an East/ West Germany scenario they are talking BS. East Germany remained German with Russian overlords; the real analogy is Koenigsberg to Kaliningrad.
Any Ukrainian identity in occupied territories will be erased. There won't be a People to free.

Next time any piece of shit politician tells you that "these are russian territories", "everyone speaks russian there" and so on - show them this. That is the "how" and the "why". It is called ethnocide and has been done numerous times by russia over the past centuries, to erase us.
