We see the ‘power play’ among powerful nations. We do not see what people really want. Polls in Ukraine before 2015 show most people wanted association with Russia. But polls in 2015 and later show most (probably younger) people want association with EU (and/or more democratic/capitalistic) countries. We fail to see that it is no importance what people think or want (in either side of political divide) – democracy or not.

If we fail again to see that ‘war’ is evil and should be excluded from world societies. What have we achieved in our many thousand years as dominant species? Have we become better animals –let alone better humans?

Freedom, human right and democracy are but empty words.
