Examining Ukraine’s History Of Corruption | NBC News Now
The former ambassador to Ukraine is supposed to testify in the impeachment inquiry. While there’s no evidence to support President Trump’s claims of corruption by the Bidens, in Ukraine, official corruption is nothing new. Matt Bradley visits to the ousted Ukrainian president’s estate and mansion outside of Kyiv - a kind of a monument to its distasteful history - to find out more.

It's incredible how much the narrative can change. Zelensky himself has like a 20% approval rating, yet we all praise him as the "champion of democracy." I think I'm going to read Manufactured Consent soon.

actually if you look beyond surface attributes, western europe is in superior condition because of "rule of law" and "nuclear family structure". Basically a society that believes in its social contract will prosper, while a society that reverts to state of nature amongst itself, and eating itself up internally for printed papers would collapse or become a prey to foreign aggression. Politicians and bankers of Ukraine and Taiwan are very corrupt. Its not NATO's or CIA's problem.

CCP knows NATO wouldnt allow unification. Bankers and Politicians in Taiwan want to intentionally mess around and say they always wanted reunification if it were to happen one day. Because they want to live a luxurious life in America, which requires population and currency. So its dumb and dumber in Greater Chinas, not the game of thrones in ex-Soviet states.

I know Ukrainian corruption from the day I saw this country. I'd blame three things: 1. Russia: Russian government has successfully infiltrated into Ukrainian system that bankrolling the country's economy, and making it part of Russian assets. And so corruption became widespread. 2. Ukrainian leadership: despite toppling Yanukovych, successors like Poroshenko and Zelensky proved to be disaster when they have no idea about the economy. In addition, Poroshenko also has assets in Russia. Zelensky has close relations with Russian authorities despite claiming himself President of Ukraine. 3. US and EU's negligence: you want Ukraine to be a democracy, many Ukrainians want to be democracy, but instead of trying to educate people, the Americans further bankrupted by supporting candidates that proven to be even worse than before. So I am not confidence of Ukraine at all.

Save Myanmar Distinguished kings,I would like to express my sincere condonlences to the people of Burma for their unjustified actions against the Burmese Military.We will only accept a government led by Aung San Suu Kyi, the wining party in the 2020 election ,as one of our government bodies.We, the people of Burma,strongly condemn this act by the Burmese Military,Which is now a vicious act of seizing the power of our elected people’s Government by force of arms.The military must Protect the country and its people.As a result of this actions by the Burmese military,hatred between the people and the military is growing day by day.This is a bad omen for the country and neither the people nor the military dictator will need it.The Burmese military continues to do whatever it wants.regardless of the interests of the people.Ignorance of the will of the people is an insult to the people by eating public money.It is well Known internationally that the people of Burmese have been protesting vigorously with the #Civil disobedience movement since the day the Burmese military took power on Monday,01.02.2021 to this day.#Civil Disobedience, Initiated by government institutions such as doctors and nurses, will also have an impact. Th success has the effect of shutting down Facebook social media.Unity is a force and as long as there is injustice,our people will speak out against it.Burmese people especially in the international arena,are eagerly protesting in every country because of the unjust actions of the Burmese military .We the people are expressing our will because the unjust coup d’etat of the Burmese Military is wrong.I want young people to understand that they are protesting against these evils , looking to the future of their future rather than their own .As Myanmar is a new country on the path to Democracy.it is up to our people to face all the obstacles that are embarrassing.The Burmese military coup was an act that kicked the People on the path to Democracy.Currently,Burma Is suffering from covid-19.it condemns the action of the Burmese military as a coup d’etat and an In humane act.For more than 30 years ,the people of Burma have suffered because of the unjust coup d’etat of the Burmese military,So our people no Longer want a military dictatorship.We call for the Immediate release of all Aung San Suu Kyi and all members of the government ,as well as for the freedom of expression of the people of Burma , and for the end of the government’s rule in2020. Dear international scholars and leader,I would like to express my sincere condolences to the people of Burma for their support to the cause of Democracy I’m Burma. #Credit Thant We want you to help each other by sharing.

As if there is no corruption in the USofA (judge Clarence Thomas e.g.) and some European countries such as even Germany. And in Ruzzia, that's always picking on Ukraine, corruption is not the exception. It's part of the system.
