Україна Ukraine

That guy, who looks like a kids drawing of a villain, is a villain? It's always the people you most suspect.

Not really surprising. Putin hat a lot of fingers in fringe politics in Europe and the US in order to destabilize them. He spent a lot of his oil- and gas money on such projects, and has found a lot of ways to channel this money into political campaigns.

I'd say Putins biggest successes so far were Trump in the White House and Brexit. A lot of the right-winger parties in Europe have dubious money sources, some of them pointing to Russia.

And keep in mind how much he had spent in the Ukraine to get his puppet president elected. Which actually failed, so he had to revert to good old plain robbery. Hats off to the Ukrainian people to opposed the political scum bought with Russian money and vote one of their own people into power.

This has been an open secret for years. It’s just that there wasn’t hard evidence until now. In 2012 they were the only party that voted against a law that would make the finances of political parties more transparent.

Am I surprised that a far-right shitbag has links to Russia? I am not.

Am I now wondering if we'll find evidence of these sorts of links in the UK going forward, maybe in the pro-Brexit politicians such as Farage, or maybe even BoJo himself? Well, wouldn't that be interesting.

I cannot believe this news isn't making the headlines in local Dutch news at all. Russia has close ties to Wilders and Baudet and no one bats an eye.

The people who vote for these fucks are fine with this. Revelations like that never damage their political prospects.
