Yes, it's voted for by the parliament, which EU citizens vote for. Representative democracy. And can absolutely be held responsible by the people. The EU parliament can dissolve the comission if wanted.

Well for those 600 years they were Swedes. So I guess? Anyway, so Sweden could potentially claim the parts with a Swedish majority at least?

Haha yes, and Russia penalizes not participating.

Have you heard of the EU parliament? The one that EU citizen vote for?

The banks had the western countries force Ukraine to oust their leader who shot protestors which were angry over said leader who made a 180° turn towards Russia?

They're imperialist though. Putin is raging about restoring the old Soviet bloc and these states not having a justification for existing outside Russia. And then invading another sovereign country with that excuse can't get more imperialist.

Probably financial aid to keep the state functioning. Paying out pensions, wages for the government workers, keeping hospitals running, buying food and arms for the army and such. The regular costs to keep a country going. Last numbers I saw Ukraines economy shrank by 20% after a year since Russias invasion. Most of the aid from the EU is financial and not arms.

Isn't it fairly cheap for the specs it have?

Neat! There's also Fairphone if you want a phone with changeable parts.

The result of Russias imperialist action. Last Hitler, now Putin. Hopefully Ukraine will manage to drive the invaders from their territory and that all nations respect international law..
