@90sRetroFanIf they support Russia, they cannot be called Nusantarans.
Sukarno cannot be called as Nusantarans? He strongly allied with Soviet Russia rather than the Chinese Communist. And He ordered their government officials to expelled more than 50.000 Chinese people on our land because they behave monopolistic on their business activities. Many Chinese were brutally harassed by the Nusantarans during that time and they leave our land.
Today Islamic Socialist Organization FPI (Front Persaudaraan Islam) also share the same views with Sukarno.
And, most of our Nusantara heroes have less problem to Russia rather than to, Chinese for example. In Bersiap Periode during national revolution against Netherlands colonialism, our local militia doing mass
**** and killings to the Netherlands Europeans and the Chinese people. And no one have problem with Russia. During 1826s our national hero Pangeran Diponegoro also had no problem with Russia, only with the Dutch and the Chinese people who most of them worked with them for business. And the result is mass genocide of the Chinese people by the Nusantara troops.

This sentiment has emerged since the United States intensified its war on terror, military campaigns to hunt down terrorists such as in Iraq and Afghanistan. few netizens sympathize with what is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan. As a result, anyone who opposes the United States or the West will be defended. ..."
The problem is, Nusantarans mostly hate Chinese and the West, not Russia. They keep being good on Russians, including Russian tourist in Bali. It's difficult to give the reason to public why Nusantarans must hate Russia. They never oppressed directly or indirectly by Russia.
