So it is most of the World after all. Majority in every region. South America and SEA are almost universally in favor (commies aside, of course :rolleyes:). Entire Oceania (surprise surprise). Large majority of Africa and the Caribbean, including their big players like Egypt, Nigeria and Kenya. Most of the Middle East as well.

1) I am shocked to see how little most people seem to know about Eritrea.

2) Afganistan's vote probably isn't the Taliban's vote. I think their representatives are still part of the old "government".

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

The logic of the countries abstaining makes me rather angry. In a time of conflict you have to chose sides. Not chosing sides means siding with the aggressor. Their voting behavior clearly shows that they don't take the west very seriously. I am sure that most/all of those countries are more dependant on western than russian business, but they think that Russia is far more likely to cut ties with them over their vote. I think if the west would sanction all countries that abstain, the vote would look very differently.

I would have imagined clear dictatorships to be supporting Russia here, so no surprise with the ones who voted against. But yeah, Talibanistan might be a tad surprising :p 

that's not Taliban's vote. the guy from the Ashraf Ghani's government voted himself

 

Taliban would probably vote for Abstention based on their official statement few days ago
