I agree in some points, e.g. that Ukraine is a very corrupt state.
I heard otherwise, not that they have no influence. But "clearly" a "huge influence" sounds wrong as well. Can you are least be a little more specific how significant you think these influences are?
do you refer to the panama papers?
Intially you wrote (at the second top level of this thread):
which implies some big western conspiracy, which I think is wrong and a too simplistic view.
That's why I started the discussion.
You heard this where exactly? Far right extremists are literally part of the government, secrete police, and military forces. Nazis had literally battalions that were officially part of the army.
Panama papers show a small glimpse into these ties, they've been extensively documented elsewhere as well. Biden family is directly involved in many questionable business dealings in Ukraine.
There is nothing simplistic about it, and much of this is now public knowledge. You seem to be rather ignorant regarding the subject you're debating here. This whole discussion has been you saying that you're not aware of the basic facts of the situation.
Not really sure why you felt the need to start a debate on the subject you're ignorant about.
