    Fact checking sites aren’t reliable. Consortium News is run and was founded by world-class investigative journalists who won Pulitzer’s. So I’ll take them over a “fact checking” site. You must think people are stupid.

      I’m not sure how anyone would read that article knowing anything about Ukraine and not immediately realize this article is biased and misleading. It is certainly bending the truth. I think only a stupid person would try and defend it.

      P.S. I’ve personally been to Ukraine and also know people who are currently there. So I’ll take my first person account over you or you’re purposely misleading article.

        Your anecdotal evidence doesn’t mean shit. Knowing people in Ukraine doesn’t refute the story.
