I'm not up on Ukrainian law, and really, really don't care about this dude. Any point you have is wasted on me.

It's interesting that you apparently support the Ukrainian censorship of freedom of expression applied to US citizens. Very revealing.

I didn't know American law applied in foreign countries. Interesting

Nice straw man you got there. Nowhere did I say that American law applies to foreign countries. What was actually said that the law he broke in Ukraine was one restricting freedom of expression. A supposed value that US is helping Ukraine defend. Not only that, but apparently US regime didn't really care about the fact that their puppet regime in Ukraine arrested and tortured a US citizen for exercising his speech, the core value that US regime purports to be fighting for. Quite telling that you're aggressively working not to understand what's happening here.
