I don't think this qualifies, as the definition is as follows:

>prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism by an individual, community, or institution against a person or people on the basis of their membership in a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.

There is no discrimination on racial or ethnic lines going on. If Russia wouldn't have invaded the Ukraine they wouldn't have put their citizens in this mess in the first place. Actions have consquences

Well, no racist ever felt bad about their racism. They always come up with excuses: "Those bastards really deserve it, because of <reason>".

Repeat after me. Russians are not a race. Go troll elsewhere.

Actions performed by one set of people (government). Consequences are for average Russians, who don't have any say. Those who "actioned" did not face any consequences still, and I don't think they will.

Almost 2 years passed since invasion, EU still buys resources from Russia. Children of Russian politics still live and study abroad, EU and US included. But average Russians, yes, they faced a lot.
