    How does e.g. Argentine keep getting away with things?

    wtf are you talking about? link

    Argentina, the largest debtor with the IMF after years of economic crisis, has seen locals lose faith in their currency as inflation hit triple-digits and almost four-in-10 people are below the poverty line.

    They’re already in debt hand getting pressured to do austerity, what do you even think is going on in the world?

    Weird, so almost like there was an active war going on And whose fault is that? Who prevented that people in occupied regions participated in the elections?

    I think the fault lies with the people who ignored any attempts at negotiation (minsk 1 and 2 peace agreements, and went on ramping up for a proxy war anyways)

    There was a coup -> there is an active warzone in part of the country -> elections happen (so free and fair) -> The post coup elected government continues shelling the people living in the east anyways -> intervention happens shocked-pikachu

      They’re not doing austerity and yet getting their credit line renewed. Nor are they getting putsched.

      minsk 1 and 2 peace agreements,

      Both broken by Russia(n backed forces). And exactly those forces also made sure that people can’t vote.

        this is being pressured to do austerity

        Pretty sure the ceasefire violations were a ‘both sides’ thing, but for most of this fighting one side (Ukraine) has has a distinct advantage in terms of weaponry, considering the irregular forces.

        The west was using those peace agreements to build up forces, Merkel literally admitted that on camera.
