Zelensky's head-over-heels manner of signing away roughly half of the income from and control over the huge minerals, oil and gas resources of his country. without getting any true guarantees in return, tells us one thing for sure; he is desperate, and he knows the Ukrainian army is not in a good position.
@danielZip-m3o I know that. You don’t how special my country men and women are. I’m sorry if you guys don’t understand my sarcasm. Long live the Ukrainian people.
@razor789 he may be illégitime but still no one is more legitimitet than him. And thè constitution in Ukraine states that rada is responsable to interprète and apply thè constitution, so.. if the rada is alright with having thé clown as president, that legitimates someone.
@ecoleducourtil7712 Article 147
The Constitutional Court of Ukraine is the sole body of constitutional jurisdiction in Ukraine.
The Constitutional Court of Ukraine decides on issues of conformity of laws and other legal acts with the Constitution of Ukraine and provides the official interpretation of the Constitution of Ukraine and the laws of Ukraine.
Apology is in order, tho I do not expect it to happen.
Agree the shocking horror of war. I remember last winter still with mud. The Russian troops had imbedded journalist the Russian troops were running through trenches there were frozen Ukraine troops were about every 4 feet apart the Russian troops had to run on top of them to get through it was apparent they were left there long enough to be frozen solid. That's quite the horror of war obviously their bodies will never be recovered . All these men had lives and family's and little problem with Russian countrymen I pray for them. Peace all
@psxtuneservice When Vladimir Putin was named president in 1999, Russia’s constitution limited the president to two consecutive terms. That’s why, after his second term ended in 2008, he served as prime minister before becoming president again in 2012. However, in January 2020 Putin drafted a constitutional amendment that would allow him to remain president for two more terms. It was included in a package of amendments that was approved by the Russian legislature and, in July 2020, by Russian voters in a national referendum.
@ As Putin was permitted two more consecutive terms without regard for his previous tenure, the 2020 constitutional amendment gave him legal authority to stay in office until 2036. That gives him legitimacy.
What if some other regions decide to join Russia? For example, Kharkov would be certainly better off as part of booming Russian economy than as part of banana republic in endless limbo, with resources owned by foreigners, and with gigantic war debt to pay off next 100 years or so.
@ There is a precedent, Kosovo... If NATO has nothing against the separation of Kosovo, they don't have a moral justification to stop any part of Ukraine from joining with Russia.
@ozymandiasultor9480 if there is an iron curtain or border walls I will agree. If they see a better life, freedom, democracy, economic prosperity then they will want better?
For the Mad King of Kiev and the bank accounts of his cronies! It is absolutely mind-blowing ... my question is, why haven't they already switched sides?
