Give them a break, they're currently focusing their energies into stealing the 2024 election \s.
Russia is not able to rig elections in freaking Moldova
Oh don't worry, there were already indictments against citizens for receiving bribes to vote against joining the EU. So some fuckery DID happen, at least according to the Moldovan government
The EU is subverting eastern European countries with their stooges. See Poland with Tusk, Ukraine with Selenski, this Romanian in Moldova and a French woman in IIRC Georgia.
Tbf they’ve also interfered in Western European elections at a national/state level (mostly the two big ones of France and Germany), though of course in that case, those countries are in the EU (as is Poland), so it’s a bit more… “Expected” or “palatable”…
I’m not so sure about the case of Zelenskyy. You could argue that they’ve kept him in power, but in terms of him getting into power in the first place… It did seem fairly organic. Of the candidates at play in that particular election, I’m not sure the EU would have chosen him. But honestly, who knows?
That feels like a very long time ago, at this point, given everything that has happened in that region since then…
But yeah, I do absolutely think he should step down at some point, ideally once martial law is over, and then we can start looking into all that more seriously…
We seem to be back to the bad old days (arguably, the 80s) of "this despot/ethnocentrist is a goodie, because they're our political ally". Not that this is anything new, of course. They're just more blatant about it now.
She's like Ardern or Trudeau, but in a much more corrupt, arguably less "democratic", poorer, non-Anglo country...
See also Poland's very own "I want a federal EU" prime minister Tusk...
A Leftist Shithole organization like Amnesty International is objecting to a Leftist leader's treason law?
It must be pretty bad.
Amnesty International doesn't say shit about people imprisoned for speech or protest in the west when morally inferior rightoids complain about their kids getting raped, or make jokes about how the government doesn't take seriously their kids getting raped.
Russia is not able to rig elections in freaking Moldova but somehow they stole 2016 from Hillary?

I don't doubt it. Russia has a lot of influence there and I assume the country is corrupt af and they still failed to win.

But we shall see what happens, I guess.

It's been that way since the Dems went full jingoism on Ukraine in 2021. We just keep supporting actual Nazis. It's a bit worrying.
