hmmmm
all large countries are problematic
Russia, no more than existing and former powerful countries
Russia was a country ripe for significant change in the early 20thC
revolution was before ww2 btw - 1917
in many respects it had been held back industrially and socially by the Tsars
as to Ukraine
that is vastly more complex than you appreciate
many see the Russian intervention as supporting the genuine govt of Ukraine that western intervention had displaced
May be, because it's profitable for your government to keep ignoramuses population, to whom so easy thrust in any most delusional idea, for example, that you stated in the question. I think, history textbook and a few brain can help you.
Pretty laughable set of cherry picking distortions.
Birth certificates of tens of millions of people say, that they were born in the USSR. We've spent our childhood in that country, visited schools, bore children... just like any other nation does.
Oh, yeah, you forgot to add that Israel and JSofA are the most "democratic, developed and tolerant nations" in the world.

I know it's hopeless... but just in case some users contemplate not listening to media fables and finally compare "white and fluffy" jAmerican politicians (à la "bomb them back to the stone age") with "demonic" Putin:

It does not want to recognize it's losing world power status.
Reading your claims makes me want to beat you with a history text book.
After the collapse of the Russian Empire in 1917, the Soviet Union was created in 1922 it did no harm to any countries, (except themselves), while Hitler was invading other countries to power up Germany.
U.S. armed Hitler to snap out of Great Depression. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMKnH2BlkBA
In 1939 Germany is the one who chose to invade Poland and Stalin did it to keep peace with Hitler. And just so you know, in 1919 Poland had a War with Ukraine and took a chunk of its land. So what Russians took from Poland was rightfully theirs in the first place.
Russians didn't want to fight in WW2 and wanted to keep peace.
After Hitler's betrayal, in 1941, Russians are the ones who defeated 95% of Hitler's army. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Barbarossa
They are the ones who defeated Germany in 1945 and freed France.
Germany killed over 11 million innocent civilians of USSR and 9 million soldiers. Germans raped and hung women. They smashed children against brick walls. USSR invaded a country who declared War on them Twice.
In 1945, When U.S. attacked 2 innocent Japanese cities with Atomic Bomb, Russians faced 1.2 million heavily armed Japanese soldiers.
By using 2 Atomic Bombs in a War, U.S. is the one who gave threats to the world with those atomic bombs. Since they could have used them again on anyone they wanted any time. If it wasn't for USSR equalizing their power in 1948, U.S. could have bombed them too.
USSR collapsed on 1991 not 1994.
U.S. invaded Iran, Iraq, Libya, and many more countries. And they wanted to bomb Syria.
Yeah, Ukraine is probably the only thing they ever did.
Britain gave small pox contaiges blankets, to aboriginals causing them painful deaths. Napoleon of France invaded and conquered whole Europe causing many deaths. Spain burned women alive and also invaded aboriginals in South America. Japan experimented on Chinese people while they were still alive. U.S. killed of aboriginals too, and had black as slaves. U.S. also declared War on Canada/Britain in 1812; result Still Mate. And now US is bombing any country they want.
Russians did harsh things in their own country. But:
Except Ukraine, what the hell did Russians do to the rest of the World, except Freeing Europe from Napoleon's control and saving world from Hitler?
why are you so anti American if you don't like it here you can always leave
