And the Afghans vowed never to stop fighting, just as Ukrainians are pledging today. Eventually, the Afghans won. Ukrainians will eventually win too. END THREAD 6/ — PolitiTweet.org

Obviously, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan was a much bigger operation than those previous victories, just like Putin's invasion of Ukraine today. 5/ — PolitiTweet.org

Putin horrific invasion of Ukraine, however, looks like overreach, like Brezhnev in Afghanistan. Remember, no one could really understand why Brezhnev invaded Afghanistan, just like Putin in Ukraine today. 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

Before today, Putin -- like Brezhnev -- also seemed on a roll. He launched successful wars in Chechnya 1999, Georgia 2008, Ukraine 2014 & Syria 2015. 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

Emboldened by these victories, Brezhnev overreached and invaded Afghanistan. We know how that ended. 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

During the Brezhnev era, communism seemed to be on the march. Communist regimes seized power in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Angola, Mozambique, Nicaragua. 1/ THREAD — PolitiTweet.org

Right now would be an excellent opportunity for China to distance itself from the rogue state of Russia and find more common ground with the US. Both the US & China share an interest in working within the liberal international order, not destroying it. Putin wants to destroy it. — PolitiTweet.org

Since 1949, China has stood rhetorically against imperialism and colonialism, and stood for sovereignty and non-interference. Xi now faces a monumental decision: endorse Russian imperialism or stand against it. — PolitiTweet.org

Please don't give Putin propagandists a platform on your media platforms. There is a time and place for hearing two sides of an issue. This tragic moment in European history is not one of them. Do not give false equivalency to voices of evil and voices of good. — PolitiTweet.org

Chinese leaders need to think hard about what kind of world they want. If Putin can unilaterally declare 2 regions of Ukraine as independent countries, then what prevents other counties from recognizing Taiwan as an independent country? Slippery slope. — PolitiTweet.org

Give me a break. Putin just invaded a sovereign, independent country. He was not interested in "dialogue and negotiation," or any of the other values that the PRC used to support. — PolitiTweet.org
