They're the Austrian who likes Hitler.

It feels like everything politicians and officials say nowadays would have made sense if they said it one year ago.

They're closing the barn door after the horse has bolted.

I'm aware. It's just that the range of who I consider black differs from that of US Americans. It would never have occured to me to call Harris "black" if I hadn't heard someone call her "black".

Not really adding, it's just a comment on the topic: I've always been confused by mass media saying Kamala Harris is black. There seems to be something about her physical features that mark her "black" in the eye of US Americans.

By 2013, it was clear that Ukraine’s democratic facade was crumbling. [...] The Party of Regions controlled the Cabinet, the Parliament (Verkhovna Rada), and most local councils. Its leading [financial-political groups] also controlled most of the courts, the police, the tax administration, and major state-owned industrial companies—in other words, the lion’s share of the economy.

Doesn't look much like a healthy democracy to me.

And the 2014 coup being backed by Western powers appears to me to merely be a Kremlin talking point. Do you have any reliable source to backup that claim?

Yes. Standing united can mean also that we recognize that right to self-rule is beneficial to all.

Thanks. I'm happy to see we stand united across frontiers.
