    All while being invaded by a fascist far-right authoritarian dictatorship (by your logic), because yes, Russia has fascists.

    So while your point is that Ukraine is a far-right authoritarian country because it:

    • Has fascists in its military ranks

        And Russia was supporting the other side, you lose some you win some. Or should the EU make up some genocide story and invade Hungary and Belarus?
