It's seems like ages ago, I know... but it would be prudent to review a few of the more riveting headlines:
Ah, the drama. It almost seems fickle and lighthearted when we contrast yesteryear with what has transpired since 2019. Two years of being hammered by a pandemic and the on-going threat of global war seem infinitely more important than a few stale headlines -- but before we jump back into current news, there is one more three-year-old story that has aged quite well:
"Mr Zelensky, a political novice, is best known for starring in a satirical television series Servant of the People, in which his character accidentally becomes Ukrainian president."
Now THAT is entertainment! Imagine it: A comedian with no political experience, who plays a character that "accidentally" becomes president, actually gets elected as president -- and this same character is now starring in the epic global drama 'Russia Versus The World'. Who'd a thunk.
Of course, some claim the Ukrainian election was mired by Russian election interference and corruption, which are familiar sounding allegations. And, keep in mind, shortly after his election Zelensky had a conversation with another TV personality-turned-president -- Donald Trump -- which ultimately led to calls of impropriety and impeachment, after Trump asked him to look into the now well-documented Biden-Burisma scandal.
Does anyone still believe this is all just coincidence?
