This is dangerous precedent. We should not normalize invasions and gaslight the invaded.

What’s the gaslighting specifically? I’m by no means an authority on this topic, and ChatGPT is wrong all the time, but it does seem like elections have been suspended and freedom of press curtailed

Even chat gpt says he didnt "cancel elections" ,  he declared marital law when Russia invaded(obviously) by Ukraine law elections are suspended during martial law

Ahh thank you — that’s the nuance I was originally wondering about! I think that’s a flaw in Ukrainian law. Thankfully we don’t have the same in the US.

In that case I don’t think it’s fair to frame the suspension as something he did (out of the context of the country’s martial law provision). That’s gas lighting. 

What about the reduction in press freedom? There nuance? Seems like something they cooked up on their own and wiki says 60% of Ukrainian journalists consider the actions censorship

The United States army had an entire department of censorship during ww2 and would even censor weather news because they thought it would make it harder for the enemy to attack

And it's undetermined if the United States could cancel the elections during marital law, scholars are split on it and it would be something that would be decided in court
