There is a bigger picture than the views of the nations of the world?
And it's not just their leaders, it's citizens around the world that have been protesting the Russian invasion - so all the people of the world are corrupt and delusional because they feel for the Ukrainian people and want Russia to stop attacking them?
I have been deeply saddened as well as outraged by what Russia has done. I have nothing to gain by opposing Russia's actions, no hidden motives. I don't see why you seem to argue that everyone who objects, must have their objections blithely swept aside, as if there is no reason why people could be legitimately upset by this. At best, you trivialize what's going on. At worst, you're just shilling for Putin.
So everyone who isn't pro-american is now "putin bot". I couldn't say it any clearer: I am anti-america, anti-nato, anti-eu but also against the current war. Even years ago I remember posting how I disagree with Russia "liberation" of my country which had happened today according to some idiots. Mostly because after the "liberation" 100% of the politicians installed were Russians (if Ukraine gets "liberated" - the same may happen watch...). Plus the gold also flew towards Russia...
These UN votes you're talking about are simple votes against atrocities, it's really absurd that some people will support the ongoing bombings of hospitals, kindergartens and the evacuation of millions of people but yeah Russia, Belarus and North Korea are ok with it.
With all of that being said, Crimea/far eastern Ukraine should be free as well and Zelenski should recognize this too.
They've invaded FFS!!! That IS targeting civilians! They (Russian soldiers) have killed children! They (Russian soldiers) are child killers, Putin has instructed his army to kill children and YOU back child killers, Putin, Russian soldiers and people like you make the world sick, Russia is the pariah of the world. I only hope that whatever they pay you to is enough for the sleepless nights you surely must have.
Its simple really if Russia doesn't want 'anti-Russian' feeling then perhaps they shouldn't invade a country and bomb its innocent population. Its not rocket science.
Sanctions have limited usefulness, Putin can print as much money as he needs to and his biggest trade partner by far (China) is still in place. US should announce that all frozen assets will remain in place until there is a regime change in Russia.

Printing money wont help, it will only devalue the rouble even more than already.
Also, EU was a much bigger trading partner for Russia than China.

Should all those numerous Russian ethnic "Republics", Russian Federation consists of, be free too? Or only the areas nazi Russian State is willing to fight and kill for? Should Crimea be free to join Turkey? Or Russian nazis are way too special to allow any sort fairness in the border carving department? Coddling and accommodating Russian nazism is a bad idea.

Yes.
Let's not blame the chechens btw, don't forget that Chechens who wanted freedom initially are now volunteering to fight on the Ukrainian side too, it's not just the ones who are traitors and fight for Kadyrov-Putin.
