  • Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s term as president of Ukraine was scheduled to end on 20th May.
    But with the country at war and martial law declared, the parliament postponed the vote and no elections have been scheduled so far.
    Al Jazeera’s John Holman reports from Kyiv, Ukraine.

    Russia and Germany established air force and tanks bases and training grounds in the depth of its territory, bought airplanes and tanks for Germans, built airplane and poison gas factories built and run by German engineers. Russian (then already Soviet) officers were training together with their German “guests”. Interestingly, the Germans viewed this cooperation as a preparation of common war against… Poland. That time, i.e. in late 1920-s early 1930-s, the Russians already decided that the Germans and his party will start the next war in Europe against France which was what Russia wanted. After the AH took power in 1933, they (not Russia, contrary to what Russians say) had stopped the cooperation. The Soviets tried to keep it going, but managed to resume it only in the beginning of 1939.
