I am thinking that Ukraine has held open elections allowing all of its citizens to vote in government positions since 1991.
"So far, five presidential elections have been conducted. The first election in 1991 was held at the same time as Ukrainians voted to support the Declaration of Independence in the independence referendum. Leonid Kravchuk was elected Ukraine's first president on 1 December 1991. He was elected by a record number of voters with over 19.5 million who wanted him to see as the leader of the state."
I saw just the opposite attitude towards Russia in Ukraine when i last visited there. Eastern Ukraine was leaning east but the rest was pro Russia. Especially in Kharkov.
I took a dosimeter from work with me on one flight on Lufthansa airlines that went over Chernobyl on my way from germany to kiev. surprising to me at about thirty-thousand feet it kept counting radioactive decay at a very high rate.
Well, the nato countries should never have pushed for and supported the 2014 coup in Ukraine which ousted a pro Russian one. Lately, Russia has not declared war on the usa or any other member nation of nato so far. If A nato country were to go into Ukraine with airstrikes that would be the same as that nato nation declaring war with Russia ... which most likely will escalate into a larger war, if not a nuclear war.
well, I am probably wrong again but it looks like Russia doesn't want to destroy it presently. Aggression on this power plant could just be the tail wagging the dog.
Oh yeah great pick as she got right to the southern border and fixed it so that the cartel can increase drug profits and illegal imigrants can contue to invade my country by the gazillions daily.
Brandon picked an excellent person with the right stuff to be nominated for justice on the usa supreme court. I hope Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is now approved by everyone soon.
I am hoping the citizens of the usa will wake up, prohibit the woke, and take back this country at the midterms coming up. China has problems of their own, so does russia. Our two biggest problems presently are protecting our borders and protecting our people from all the non consequential non prosecuted increasing crimes. I say let china have taiwan and let russia have ukraine.
The usa should pay Russia to guard its southern border. Let nato take care of things in their own back yard on their own. Nato is a bunch of cry babies.
Are we seeing Putin's chessboard unfold with a huge pincer movement....
Considering we should never trust those bearing gifts, i doubt that tactic will work roday unless it includes Kyiv Vechirniy chocolates candy.
