There is nothing worse that redundancy and needless repetition.
Ukraine became an independent state, formalised how?....with a ‘Referendum’ in December 1991.......over 30 yrs ago and it still cannnot stand alone - with countless protests/ uprising that turn on a dime, civil wars from within and without and often a combination of the two....fighting Oligarchs to Political Politicians - it has never known “Peace” nor prosperity. And it won’t because it can never agree with itself.
