[QUOTE]P.S. 5 people died, and there are still people whining about the poor Berkut. They should be hanged, every other one of them.
P.P.S. Rom, can you imagine such behavior from police in the EU? I can't. And if someone even thought of it, they would be torn to shreds in a couple of days and would never work in the police again.[/QUOTE]
5 people? 2 were shot on Maidan, and the Berkut didn't have firearms, only rubber bullets. There were rumors that 1 Berkut officer beat someone to death, but there is no evidence, only a video of stretchers covered with a blanket being carried out of a building captured by fascists. I haven't found any other facts or where the other 2 came from.
I won't talk about the USA and how they treat their citizens – the legalization of torture, social programs that don't work (for example, after the 2013 hurricane, a town that wasn't even warned about the hurricane suffered, all the money was stolen, and people rebuilt on their own, with no help from the government), police with no limits, genocide of the people – it might sound like an exaggeration, but that's how I see it, especially after 9/11. Or are there still people who believe it was Al-Qaeda? I've gotten too sidetracked talking about the USA, but you can't ignore them because the EU is essentially controlled by the USA. Look at how they dispersed people in the streets of France when they legalized same-sex marriage. People weren't throwing Molotov cocktails; the protest was peaceful. There are many examples, but I don't think it's worth going into them.
Let's get back to the logic: why would a prosperous EU need Ukraine with its debts, ruined economy (which still exists!), and other "charms"? If you look closely at the stated demands (which were even hidden from the Verkhovna Rada, which received them 2 hours before the agreement was adopted), it becomes clear that Ukraine is just another colony for the EU, like Greece, Bulgaria, Romania, and the Baltic states... through which pressure can be exerted on Russia from a third side.
Do you want a European standard of living? If you're not lazy, take a quick look at how much the average European spends on housing (about 70% of their salary). And the acceptance of same-sex tolerance in developed countries, I can only describe it as genocide of the people (I hope it's no secret that Europe is dying out?) and many other "benefits" that we so desperately need in Ukraine! And the fact that they show you on TV how the same Americans live with billions of dollars – look at how many percent of the population receives social assistance and lives on the streets because they couldn't pay off their loans...
Let's go back to the Maidan. In 2004, they elected Yushchenko, who, in my opinion, ruined Ukraine even more than Yanukovych. Nevertheless, he served out his term, even though everyone was gritting their teeth, no less than they are now.
If there are any experts here who can justify that overthrowing the government (in a civilized country, at least in the last 100 years) through a revolution has only benefited that country, I would be happy to read it.
I'm not defending Yanukovych; he's a scoundrel and a bandit. Show me a politician in Ukraine who works differently, for the benefit of the people.
Glory to Ukraine!
