Should Ukraine open their borders to Russians?

If they'll accept Ukrainian law and, you know, not attempt to take over the country, yes why not? Open borders don't contradict self-defense.

And if the Russians don't accept those terms? Or, say that they accept them to gain entry only to then carry out a campaign of slow annexation?

Then they're dealt with in the same way anyone else would be if they tried to do that; I'm not sure what your point is. Border "security" against individual crossing and national defense against an enemy state are two completely different things.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
