Protesters held signs with messages like “Russian warship, go fuck yourself,” “Abkhazia is Georgia,” “Russia is an occupier,” and “Go back to your fucking country.” Additionally, they carried photos of Abkhazia and the 2008 Russo-Georgian War, and played the Georgian national anthem, according to the outlet Batumelebi.

    “We’re the Soviet Union. We’re a single country,” another Russian passenger reportedly said.

    I guess there are still plenty of Russians with that opinion. Sad.

      yeah i don’t understand how anyone can treat ANY Russian with “hospitality” right now… if they think they have the right to just kill anyone they want, i don’t think they should be treated with civility anywhere…

        To be fair, there are also Russians who oppose the war and openly speak out. Many also leave the country to escape the draft office and/or economic despair. We shouldn’t pidgeonhole an entire nation.
