And for you to understand - here, in Russia, where the TV totally controlled by the government, we have 24hours a day news about the "ukranian facists", who ready to kill and terrorise Russian-speaking people. That lie used as a main argument of the military intervention in Crimea. But for you to know, that even Kiev, Ukranian capital, is the mostly Russian-speaking city, and even Maidan was half-russian. <br />I don't try to deny the rise of far right in Ukraine by now and their role in Maidan events, but we, as a marxists, should understand - and explain - all the contradictions and complecities of reality, and not reduce it to a simple propagandistic black and white position<br /><br />Comradely"Maurohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06349911383935147515noreply@blogger.com
