While the entire world is against Russia over its military exercise in Ukraine, #IStandWithPutin is trending on Twitter where a number of netizens have appeared supporting Putin.
Most of the opinions shared on Twitter point out the fact that Russia and Putin are standing against the West and that India should support one of its oldest allies and has defence and diplomatic ties with Moscow.
Twitterati are pointing out facts to support their part. One such tweet says “America and nato destroyed 9 Muslim country’s and killed 11 millions peoples no buddy called them terrorist if you killed 11 million people and you are not terrorist than i asked you who is terrorist (sic),” read on of the tweets.
Another social media user commented that Ukraine has opposed India’s policies on various occasions and we don’t have to support them.
Another tweet says: “When the US do the same in the Middle East , nobody cares but a country bordering Europe . Western countries feel threatened and rushed to help with weapons but not did the same in Syria , Iraq, Libya and Palestine. This Sun shines always.”
One of the trending post on this reminds us of history that indicates various occasions where Russia stood with India:
