The vast majority of Russians know about the war in Ukraine many important facts that Western audiences don’t know and have never been informed of. Almost all Russians know the history of that war’s start in February 2014, its start that’s shown with actual video clips of its start, and which 10-minute video of its start became first posted to youtube on 12 March 2014. (This 10-minute video is entirely true, and it fairly represents the key videoed events that are summarily shown and described in it, such as this event, in which Obama’s agent instructs America’s Ambassador in Ukraine whom to get appointed to run the post-coup-government, and such as this event, in which the EU foreign-relations chief first learns, on 26 February 2014, that it had been a coup and not anything democratic.)

So: Russians see this war in Ukraine as a war to undo an American coup that had culminated during 20-27 February 2014 that the EU didn’t even know about until 26 February 2014 but that the EU then accepted and tried to get as much out of it as they could. This U.S. coup threatens Russians because if America gets to post its missiles in Ukraine, on Russia’s border only 300 miles away from Moscow, then America will have checkmated Russia, by being able then to decapitate Russia’s central command within only five minutes, which would be far too quick for Russia to be able to launch its retaliatory weapons; and a Russian surrender to the U.S. Government would then be assured. Russians don’t find that prospect tolerable, at all; so, they support, nearly by 100%, Russia’s military operation that started in Ukraine on 24 February 2022.
On 6 February 2023, and also written-up in an online article in Russia two days later, a Russian political scientist explained why Russia’s Government will either win this war militarily in the correct way, or else lose it ultimately if Russia’s Government fails to do that — to win it correctly. Following here is the article (translated into English) that they posted online, in which he explains why and how this is so — why Russia needs to drive America’s control over Ukraine, which started in that coup, entirely out of all of Ukraine, and not leave any part of Ukraine remaining under the control of the U.S. Government:

The US is ready to surrender Ukraine, but not all of it. Leonid Krutakov is sure that the special operation must be brought to its logical conclusion. In his opinion [aired on 6 February 2023], Russia is being led into a trap. The West may make concessions, but the deal risks turning into a new time bomb for Moscow.
The Western press suddenly began to disperse decadent moods regarding the prospects for the development of the conflict in Ukraine, the host of the “First Russian” Nikita Komarov drew attention on the air of the program “Tsargrad. Main” .
According to the German newspaper Die Welt, Kyiv is practically doomed – its chances of winning tend to zero. The article explains that Ukrainian troops will soon run the risk of being left with virtually no weapons and fighters. Supplies from the US and the EU, as well as the help of mercenaries, can only slightly and for a short time alleviate the situation.
In this regard, the publication expects that parts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine will soon be forced to leave Bakhmut — which is of great strategic importance — due to serious losses.
The host of the “First Russian” program pointed out that such an assessment by Die Welt is surprisingly true, but there is some kind of catch in such defiantly decadent rhetoric. Political scientist Leonid Krutakov , an associate professor at the Financial University under the Government of Russia, agreed with him live.
The West is testing the soil
The interlocutor of Tsargrad did not rule out that such publications in Europe are simply preparing public opinion for the opening of the next deliveries of heavy weapons to Ukraine:
“However, one does not exclude the other [possibility]. Probably, in the US and the EU they want, on the one hand, to mislead us, and on the other hand, to use at least some truthful information, because you cannot build propaganda or information policy solely on outright lies.”

Can’t relieve pressure
In any case, it is important for Russia not to lose vigilance and to develop the pace of the offensive. It must be remembered that if Moscow today gives up and turns back, then the fake about “Russian aggression” will be fixed in the minds of people forever, since history is written by the winner.
“‘If the special operation does not end in Kiev with a process of denationalization, a real tribunal similar to the Nuremberg one – with documents, with proof of guilt, with a historic verdict – then the SVO [Special Military Operation] will become an alleged crime of Russia in the history of Western thought,’ the expert explained.”
