In Ukraine, Poroshenko basically said "we need a constitutional commission" and "they have to be approved by my lackey."

Maybe if you learned more about Ayatollah Khameini's actions under the brutal US-supported Shah Dictatorship, you wouldn't be waving your jingo-chauvinistic flag
In 1971, Ali Khameinei was placed in the Shah's prisons at the age of 31+
Mexico just ended the diplomatic relations with Ecuador after Ecuador stormed into the Mexican Embassy to arrest former VP Jorge Glas who was seeking asylum there.
This story is interesting and there is a deep rabbit hole.
In 2017, Ecuadorian VP Jorge Glas was sentenced of corruption for alleged bribes involving Brazilian corporation Odebrecht ( Remember their name! it becomes important)
