Yes, I'm sure they love being oppressed by an authoritarian government without free speech. Who do you think believes that anyone would want to live voluntary under Putins rule?

It's precisely because they don't want to live under a corrupt fascist dictatorship without free speech that they chose to leave Nazi Ukraine and re-join Russia.
