Morality is perhaps the least utilized consideration in political activity. Politics is fundamentally the art of the possible and is only very rarely influenced by moral or ethical factors. This does not mean that there have never been principled, honest and moral politicians in world history. However, such politicians were rare. This is perhaps because such factors as morality and ethics sometimes negatively affect success, which is measured in self-aggrandizement.

The People’s Republic of China is one of the most powerful and complex countries in the world. To understand even its name and essence is a major undertaking. Is it communist? No one can answer with certainty. Perhaps the best description is that it is a capitalist state under full state authoritarian control. How it can be considered a people’s republic when democracy is non-existent is one of the conundrums of politics.

Apparently, Trump’s next one hundred days are starting off much better than the first. Granted it’s a very low bar. On Wednesday, April 30, Ukraine and America signed something that is akin to an agreement. Both sides were encouraged. The Ukrainian side said: “Truly, this is a strategic deal for the creation of an investment partner fund,” said Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.

First, let me note, there’s a pall hovering over America at the moment, and it seems many Americans are ill-equipped to name it, much less confront it. We need to see it for what it is. And now on to the most recent developments concerning Ukraine. Follow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official.

10It has been suggested by some Catholics, and also non-Catholics in America, that the Holy Father succumbed to a cerebral haemorrhage on the Monday morning after Easter because he had been visited by the Devil himself on the day before. That diabolical apparition was the Vice President of the United States, J.D. Vance. While this seems far-fetched it may be appropriate to note that Jesus Christ himself as a human being was persecuted by Satan while he prayed for forty days in the desert.

8An American citizen of Russian descent and citizenship – strange since the U.S. Constitution does not provide for dual citizenship except by treaty with individual countries – on whatever grounds but in all likelihood moral ones, opposed the Russian aggression in Ukraine which was totally unprovoked and included the murder of innocent civilians, including kidnapping children. She contributed a symbolic $51 towards humanitarian aid for Ukraine through an American not-for-profit.

President Volodymyr Zelensky faces a very challenging conundrum. He either plays along with US President Trump or he loses American military support and intelligence sharing. Or he can be straightforward and direct and rely strictly on the Europeans who are stepping up in their support and increasing their capability. Zelensky has told Trump many times that Putin does not want peace and that he has breached numerous ceasefires even during Trump’s prior term. Trump feigns amnesia. Or is it ignorance?
