I would say most DID NOT submit, they JUMPED ON BOARD! You can tell by their smiles. Xi Jinping is ON BOARD but he doesn't show his emotions. Great Video.
Do you blame them? The Biden/0bama regime betrayed them. Russia, along with Germany & France, got the leaders of Luhansk and Donetsk Oblasks to sign the Minsk II Agreement in 2014 and for 8 years the Nuland led coup regime in Kiev built up military lines. In that time 13,000 Ukrainians were killed. Like 90% were Ukrainians of Russian descent by the Nuland installed leaders in Kiev. They throw in our faces, still to this day they call the 2014 coup d'etat The Revolution of Dignity.
Then, 2 years ago, Russians met with the Zelenky led regime in Istanbul and came up with a peace agreement. As an act of good will Putin withdrew his military force closing in on Kiev (they lie when they say Ukraine forces won the battle of Kiev). Included in the Agreement was that Donetsk and Luhansk would remain in Ukraine. What happened. The U.S. told Zelensky to break the Agreement and here we are.
God knows, we need Trump back in command.
