Ah, The Good Old Soviet Days!

Why Russians Long for the Soviet Union (Victor Davidoff) from the Moscow Times [in English]
"Almost everyone who supports using force against Ukraine sees it primarily as a path to resurrecting the Soviet Union. This may be explained by the fact that the majority of these people never lived in the U.S.S.R. and do not remember it. For them, it is just a mythical golden age of a great power that could provide stability to several generations of Russians. ... Despite all this, attitudes toward Ukraine are not so simple."
