Thus, any attacks into Russia are certain to add (plenty of) 'oil to fire', i.e. 'support' Putin's nonsensical theories about 'Uko-Nazis' - especially so within circles of his 'fan-base in the West and elsewhere outside Russia'.

....finally, it would greatly bolster the morale of the Russian troops if they could say, 'we're defending Rodinu'.
