I saw on RT, that the new "elected" leaders in Ukraine are rich oligarchs who all appear on the top 10 list of richest people in Ukraine.
Seriously? This just seems like more of the same.
They also showed the houses of Julia Timoshenko and some of her allies that I don't know. She's rich as a goblin. Particularly not a relatively poorly off country.
In my opinion, such people are NOT credible as leaders of a country. Whether it's Ukraine, Russia, USA, Italy or France.
People who become politicians should come from regular backgrounds as much as possible, be elected in a process that does not require money or sponsorship to participate, or because of specialist skills.
I seriously DOUBT that a bunch of oligarchs will bring any meaningful improvement to regular people in Ukraine.
Another thing that Western media is unaware of, or just ignoring, is Crimea's historical ties with Russia, and that it's mostly a fluke that it belongs to Ukraine.
And that Russia are paying millions to Ukraine to keep a base there.
It's not even mentioned.
And as or RT - they write it off as Russian propaganda.
I am going to stop following this now. The hypocrisy in Western media is driving me crazy,
I just hope things will work out for the Ukrainian people.
