Representatives of “democratic” Ukraine spoke in such a manner:
journalistic equivalent of a bowl of vomit
countless blatant lies
total garbage
pro-violence propaganda piece
etc.
Please see the screenshot of this statement above.
I conclude that Western countries have found for themselves a very suitable friend .
Did Ukrainian diplomats afford such behavior in the West before Ukrainian “revolution”?
