“Democracy” in Ukraine—What is NATO risking a war for?
State commemorations and public memorials to war criminals, mass murderers, anti-Semites and Nazi collaborators such as Symon Petliura, Stepan Bandera and Roman Shukhevych.
Mafia-like struggles for state power between a handful of oligarchs and a corrupt judiciary and authorities.
Screaming social inequality with an average monthly income of 412 euros (April 2021). These are the most salient features of Ukrainian “democracy,” for which the US and its European NATO allies are risking war against the nuclear power Russia.
