      All while being invaded by a fascist far-right authoritarian dictatorship (by your logic), because yes, Russia has fascists.

      So while your point is that Ukraine is a far-right authoritarian country because it:

      • Has a controversial monument to a fascist
      • Doesn’t hold elections while being invaded
      • Has fascists in its military ranks

      The point I’m attempting to make to you, is that all countries have fascists in them. Yes even Russia:

          And Russia was supporting the other side, you lose some you win some. Or should the EU make up some genocide story and invade Hungary and Belarus?
