Yes and you are one of the many propaganda accounts, which spread this lies. Democracy is inherently peoples-politics, while authoritarian is inherently the enemy of the people and makes them to slaves who are unfree.

There is no need to talk about EU, US Russia. It does not matter how the countries are named. But people loosing freedom is what matters. And Russian government is a big force in stealing freedoms from Ukrainians and most of all from its citizen.

In most EU countries and the USA, the governments are liberal and democratic. Means everyone can publish critical articles about every person in the world, without getting legal punishment. (threatening, herrassing, publishing private information about someone is not critique, it is only unacceptable behaviour and is objectively destinguishable from critique)

You seem to be largely in favor of suppressive governance and increase the space of suppressive governance. I am very clearly for ferated governance, in a way that everyone has their human rights granted. Independent from continent or country.
