    I’m aware they’re different countries, I’m just asking whether they support the project that gave Ukraine the best living conditions seen in the history of the region.

        People have become very concerned with the lives of Ukrainians for the past 4 years, logically so. It’s worth it to remember the system that enabled the best living conditions in the history of Ukraine, I hope Ukraine goes back to a similar system

          Do you think Ukrainians are in danger now because they don’t have a communist government? Or is it central control from Moscow that was the key to Ukrainian happiness?

            I don’t just think so, I showed you the evidence of population collapse in Ukraine after 1990 due to impoverishment, lack of jobs, shortages, inflation, drug abuse, alcoholism, petty and organized crime, lack of healthcare and suicide. Ukrainians have been in danger for 35 years as a consequence of western intervention, you only know about the last 4 years because it’s suddenly those evil Russians hurting Ukrainians.

            Or is it central control from Moscow that was the key to Ukrainian happiness?

            You’re mistaken about that. Ukraine was its own republic with its own political representation, its own official language, its own industry, its own peasant collectives, and both Khruschyov and Brezhnev were of Ukrainian origin.

              Glad we’re on the same page of getting the evil russians out of Ukraine so they can get back to being an autonomous region.
