Well, if they wanted to, they could still return them to Ukrainian orphanages.

That's not something that should be stopping them from returning the children. There is zero reason why these Ukrainian children should be in Russia rather than in Ukraine, the only possible exception being if their closest relatives are in Russia.

There are hundreds of other interviews just like this by independent journalist from all sorts of Chinese cities. The interviews show people have varied and nuanced opinions about their government and the outside world... You're telling me they're all hand picked for propaganda?

Of course their education system is based on China, just like every other country's is based on their own history. I've found in general they answer questions with a realistic understanding of other countries, but of course there are ignorant people in China just like there are also ignorant people in the west.

It seems that you're trying really hard to hate a system that is genuinely helping and listening to it's people.

My comment was aimed at the people who vote frivolously, ignoring many signs that a candidate may be unfit for office and is divisive or otherwise bad for the democracy. Here, they vote anyway because the candidate embraces their racist hints.
