In the article they do admit they are pro-Belarus/Russia activists instead of communists. Hope we learn the truth after the fog of war is over
The SBU accused them of being propagandists holding pro-Russian and pro-Belarusian views with the goal of destabilizing the internal situation in Ukraine and creating a “necessary information picture” for Russian and Belarusian channels.
During their trial, the brothers stated that “our case is completely fabricated from start to finish. What are we charged with? Pro-Belarussian views are being charged. We are being tried for our views. What kind of democracy can we talk about?”
Regarding the ban on KPU, Mykhail Kononovich had told Peoples Dispatch in an interview in February 2021, “I emphasize that the communist ideology, the idea, cannot be banned by any laws. So it is impossible to ban common sense and science. It is simply impossible to ban the Communist Party of Ukraine (KPU) because we are a party with more than a hundred years of history, a party that has an experience of subterranean struggles. We, communists, have fought and will continue to fight for the benefit of our people!”
In case you have misread. They never said what you claim, being communists and oppossing NATO is not some oxymoron that denies the other. In fact the position held by most communist parties in the Global South at the moment is this one, it is certainly the reality I’ve seen in Latinoamerica.
No no, opposing NATO is good and chill. Pro-Belarus/Russia is the anti-communist take
Why wouldn’t you want your nation tjnbe militarily defended?
Nothing wrong with that. Many geopolitical locations definitely need defenses
NATO has it’s issues with US & Turkey for starters but still it’s the only viable option for some places
Nah, the issue with NATO is that it keeps invading countries and destroying them.
In many cases yes. Currently it’s also a needed defense for it’s members from other invaders and destroyers. Ideally NATO wouldn’t be needed. Dismantling it would be great, simultaneously or after the other rogue powers.
NATO is needed to deal with problems that NATO created. It’s a self perpetuating horror show.
