(62,325 posts)Whenever something like this happens it leads to questions as to whether there is fear that the people themselves may not agree with the 'protesters'. Were they afraid he would be elected again? If all they are claiming is true, then they should not have had a problem with a democratic process. Airc, he had agreed to an early election.
And why are WE so invested in these countries, condemning their leaders for things that PALE by comparison to some of those we are supporting with MONEY. Karamov eg, where are the protests here on DU against OUR Government financing this genocidal, torturing dictator?
Seems to me anyone who is angry over the Ukraine, should be on FIRE with anger over Uzbekistan. Makes one think our 'issue of the day' is being driven by entities with a vested interest in the outcomes. While we look the other way from far more egregious violations by some of our allies.
