everyone but the NAFO trolls
NAFO?
To be part of NATO it is necessary to meet the strict corruption standards of the imperialist countries that are part of it
So much chatter lately along these lines. Seems like the west is about to do the Toy Story meme and drop the puppet.
Oh the irony
People forget it was still a russian puppet pre-2014. Rooting out corruption takes a loooong time.
Pretty ironicaly, so called "Russian puppet" Yanukovych is literally the last Ukrainian president who was democraticaly elected by population of entire Ukraine (meaning within its 1991 borders).
weird how it only got more corrupt after the coup 🤡
Lol "coup" more like a peaceful people's revolution to take back control for the people of Ukraine away from puppets beholden to Fascist Russia.
Taking back control from the guys who actually won the election.
So uhm...based?
