Random chart - Ukraine


"In the lead-up to the presidential election on March 31, Ukrainians go to the polls with less faith in their government than is true for any other electorate in the world. Just 9% of residents have confidence in the national government, the lowest confidence level in the world for the second straight year. This is far below the regional median for former Soviet states (48%) as well as the global average (56%) in 2018."

Not "OSCE observers"


A full week after the OSCE had clarified that those detained were not "OSCE observers" the media keeps on reporting about the detained, and now released "OSCE observers." A case of lazy reporting? Of stupidity? Or 'propaganda'? Occam's Razor would suggest the former...

Of course, when the Russians engage in similar tactics, the U.S. immediately labels it rank propaganda...

Random charts - Ukraine

OK, so polling Ukrainians it is clear that Ukraine should remain a unitary country and join the European Union (and definitely not a customs union with Russia, etc.):

 
 

Uh, well perhaps not so cut and dried after all:




Well, at least confidence in the current government "holds."

 

Err, that's one way of putting it...
