Ukraine is the only country in the world that has the full moral authority to develop nuclear weapons. We are the only country to give up nukes and look where that got us.

That being said “moral authority” isn’t worth shit in this world.

South Korea, Poland and the Baltic nations should honestly try and develop their own nukes too.

That’s a fair point.

Difficult to say. One possible area to look into is formerly colonized nations that have experienced very strong economic growth in the last 30 years. What do you think?

Would Brazil be a good example? I believe colonialism ended over 200 years ago and they’ve seen pretty strong growth in the last ~25 years. How would you rate their attitude towards modern colonialilsm?

What about South Africa? Or is that a bad example. Their consistency on the topic of imperialism is interesting to say the least.

Does this hold true even if these countries (often times the population at large, not just the leadership) are avid supporters of imperialism and brutal occupations?

You ask for reparations for colonialism, while at the same time supporting russia’s genocidal, imperialist invasion.

EDIT: This is not aimed at the poster. More so the countries that would receive these proposed reparations and a much lesser extent Amnesty itself (the director of Ukrainian Amnesty international resigned after the head office released some asisine accusations against the UA army).

Unfortunately this is really just the EU’s version of “thoughts and prayers”.

Austria’s Raiffeisen bank still has not left russia after almost 3 years of full scale war.

And let’s not forget how Merkel greenlighted Nord Stream 2 right after the beginning of the war; the invasion of Crimea.

Agreed. My comment was a general statement of solidarity. :)

Curious to see how this goes. Wish all the best to the democratic, liberal-minded folks in Hungary.

The impression I get is Orban’s rule has become ironclad over the last few decades (which makes sense as you get time to institutionalize “permanent” rule and condition society to such a state of affairs). I do hope I am wrong and my knowledge of Hungarian politics is subpar beyond foreign policy elements.
