"The countries of Central and Latin America "threw cold water" on the EU's efforts to unite the continent to support Ukraine and call for colonial reparations in a counter-proposal to the draft declaration of the upcoming EU summit."

So on one hand they are not interested in standing up against the Russian attempt to colonize Ukraine but on the other hand they are very interested about colonial reparations?

So... are they pro colonization or anti colonization?

Just like Europe isn't interested in LATAM's problems, LATAM isn't interested in Europe's problems. Take that as you will.

Just like the sounds of my neighbor beating the shit of his wife isn’t any of my concern. I have absolutely no moral obligation to help people in need.

I could say the same of Europe for the last, I dunno, century maybe. All those brutal US backed dictatorships and where were they?

Please tell me how Ukraine should suffer because of Pinochet?
