Among Hungary, Poland, Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia, it was Hungary that exited Moscow's grip in 1990 with the highest GDP per capita.
The Russian-backed Orban regime has since looted the country to the point that it's now the lowest.

This all happened about 18 months after the Warsaw Pact was formed - the only mutual defense alliance in history to repeatedly attack itself since the ancient Greeks.

Before Russia's new crimes, I want to revisit the biggest mass murder of all, when Moscow deliberately bombed a theatre in Mariupol where families sheltered.
4 years on, the murderers will reopen it soon and, as the exiled Mariupol council puts it, dance of the bones of 600+ dead.

Bears to keep in mind the obvious contradiction.
In 2022, Putin launched the largest European invasion since WWII while blaming Ukraine’s distant NATO aspirations. Weeks later, he said Russia had “no problem” with neighbouring Finland and Sweden actually joining NATO. Putin’s problem is evidently Ukrainian independence not NATO expansion

Reality is that most populists who support withdrawal have little to no understanding what Istanbul Convention does - obviusly never bothering to read it up.
Real reason - they want to hate a handful of people so much they are willing to let half the country hurt to do it.
You're no "protector".
