@aceyage You do realize that kindergarten analogies doesn't work in a real geopolitical scenario, don't you? You cant be so naive.

Nobody has free press mate, the only difference is that the Russians know that they dont while many of us in EU have not realized it yet.

What did you do with your Martin Luther King?

@WangAiHua Oh you want a comment? Here is one. First time I visited Ukraine in 2002 I had to ask people to speak Ukrainian just to hear how they sound, cause everybody was speaking Russian.

@Diaboli29A Is that how he was assassinated? By too much appreciation?

yeah crazy, I mean what he did wrong he only continued a civil war, trashed every agreement and was signing bogus petitions for EU membership on the same day that Ukrainian and Russian diplomats were met in order to compromise (at that point there were very few casualties and literally 3 bombed buildings in Kiev, most probably by the Ukrainian air-defence, that all the networks were showing again and again).

Not one of the people who disagreed completely with the war, properly elaborated. In fact the reporter makes an effort every time to make them say more but they won’t. You can blame the Russian government for making them fear to openly express themselves publicly, but how can you blame the reporter? Unlike 1402 they don’t edit the material down, or make provocative snapshots with comic elements, in order to make the people with the ‘’wrong’’ opinion look foolish. Or find somebody who clearly has not the education and ability to express himself and then making him the main act.

@zhl5806 lol dude

@eskualranjov241 I dont think that the Cam-girl Land is West mate

@TheHighlanderprime They are using leading questions and edit the material in a way that it would ‘’expose’’ the persons with the ‘’wrong’’ answers, even if their opinions actually makes sense.

The first time I went to Ukraine back in 2002, everybody around me spoke Russian, I mean even in Kiev. Since I was curious I had to ask my friends to speak Ukrainian to hear how they sound. To my ears they sounded like Russian with some Polish mixed in.

Actually its completely different. The Irish were under British occupation. Two separate people with completely different cultures. Your example does not apply at all.

@WangAiHua Did you had a stroke mate?

Ironically the Schengen treaty was created in order to keep Eastern Europeans out. Before 2017 it was easier to import drugs in EU than getting a 6 months visa for a Ukrainian without a huge bank account.

I dont know dude, maybe allowing nationalistic goons to take over and then proceed to divide and terrorize a big part of your population for a decade might have been a wrong call. Just saying... While you are boiling can you make me a tea? We have to save energy in EU because of your shit show.

@eskualranjov241 Yes and Ukraine is straight out of the Borat films, having a pseudo-EU facade in Kiev doesnt change the reality in the rest of the country. Do you live in Ukraine or you escaped at the first chance?

@aceyage Geopolitics exists buddy, that’s why countries have diplomacy and that’s why certain things are a no go. For the same reason that US has the Monroe Doctrine and has actively undermined systematically all the South American countries, the same reason why they would not allow the sovereign nation of Cuba to host Soviet ballistic missiles, the same reason why they made veiled threads towards the Solomon Islands 2 years ago if they would host a Chinese base.

@aceyage It’s not word salad unless you are a toddler.

@Erix442 Russia ‘s regime is authoritarian but nothing like a dictatorship. I don’t live in a dictatorship, but my parents lived through one (installed by the ever freedom loving US of A in the late 60’s). I grew up with tales of how was it, some are almost tragic comedies due to the mind boggling abuse of power by the state. I would describe it to a Russian as a reverse Soviet regime of the 50’s where the lefties or perceived as so, were hunted down. Even the slightest act or word against the regime could have you end up in a basement having your face rearranged by military police goons, and then if you were lucky you would end up unemployable as a marked communist, if you were unlucky you would end up in a rocky island, our version of Siberia. Certain composers and artists were completely censored while the political songs of the era were communicating in code. My father in the early 70’s was slapped in the middle of the street by a police man because he had a beard ( as it was the fashion then, that returned the latest years also) and beards had the partisans, and the partisans were communists ergo my father was a commie that had to be corrected.

How to tell me that you have never been in Ukraine, without telling me that you have never been in Ukraine.

@Denys101 several times since 2002, way before the maniacs took over and killed their own people

@weirdo1060 Germany admitted nothing, in fact to this day they refuse to pay reparations under various excuses. They just pretended that they were sorry after being crushed but privately they maintained the same mindset and that is showing in any chance.

@tertiusduplessis2581 I watched the clown on TV signing a petition for EU membership when it was made clear to him privately AND publicly that this aint going to happen. The very same time when the Russian and Ukrainian diplomats were having a meeting. Up to that point there were only minor skirmishes and low casualties. Everything could be put back in the box. This is public knowledge literally shown world wide on TV. Zelensky by following the orders of his masters killed his people by getting them in a fight they cannot possibly ever win.
