    Precisely.

    And this is why a lot of peoples did not, in fact, fight a war of independence against Russia.

    And the Chechens, for instance, wanted independence because they were subjected to a genocide by the USSR when it was ruled by a Georgian, so this is hardly a usual case for the ethnic minorities, since most of them were not genocided.

      The main reason the rest don’t fight is because they were already too badly genocided.

        Exactly. In fact, my nation was genocided so hard by the Russians, we don’t even know it happened.

        The point is, that there is not necessarily a desire to leave. You are generalising unnecessarily.
