Germany suspects the Nord Stream gas pipeline system was damaged by an act of sabotage, in what would amount to a major escalation in the standoff between Russia and Europe.
Yes, it is logical. When you want to assert authority and remain in power, it is, in fact, logical to ban your opposition. But it is not democratic. It’s fascist.
But how are they “trying” to be. What effort was made to be democratic? Was it when America organized a coup of the popularly elected government in 2014? Was it when they integrated ethnic cleansing Nazis into the government? Was it when they banned their opposition? Was it when they closed their borders to all men eligible to the draft? Was it when they promised to sell off national assets to western corporations on the stock market? Was it when they declared their desire to be a second Israel (a literal genocidal apartheid state)?
No, I’m actually bringing up very specific incidents that occurred in Ukraine, that can be confirmed by Ukraine governmental sources, and that were widely reported by Western media outlets.
What you are doing, however, is trying to paint any criticism of Ukraine as pro-Russian propaganda, and then cutting off conversation when you run out of canned talking points.

I didn’t say anything about Russia. I just replied to your assertion that Ukraine is trying to be democratic. It isn’t.
