Additional work?

In the west I think we need to realize that the situation is extremely unfortunate for Russians that are victims of the dictatorship (vs. those that actually believe in the party line), who have no easy way out of the country, and are absolutely screwed ATM.

Obviously worlds better than being under fire in the Ukraine, but I wouldn't throw the average Russian in the "minimal price we all have to pay" bucket.

Comparatively everyone in the west has it real easy (for now at any rate).
