      I’m just not sure why being the invaded party is the deciding factor here. Do the people not get a say in who leads their defense, only their offense?

          No, I’m not. Could you please at least engage in the conversation if you’re going to reply?

              Having a different perspective than you doesn’t make me a troll. I never thought I’d be called a troll for saying maybe they should conduct an election.

                  I’m not familiar with Ukraine’s constitution, but frankly I don’t put much stock in the idea of an indelible constitution.

                  You’ll usually have more luck convincing people of your perspective by not insulting them, btw.
