Under pressure from the EU to the detriment of Bulgaria, all because of the tensions between the EU and Russia.

The problem is Russian influence. They continue to be locusts in EU countries and want everything to be bad and miserable and poor.

That is a disgusting russophobia. You should be ashamed.

Crimea, downing airplane, war in Ukraine. Just last 5 years. So I think it's true.

What is true?

Imagine someone saying "Jews are locusts in the Middle East". What do you think would be the reaction?

This is about the government, not the people. The Russian government is well known for intervening in the affairs of other ranging from invasion (Georgia, Ukraine), to corruption schemes and funding alt-right organizations.

Then that comment would've said so, but it hasn't.

Besides, all that you have mentioned is hardly unique for Russian government.

Nationalistic and ethnic slurs will get you banned here. Please don't post like this to HN again.

Edit: your comment history to HN looks great otherwise. That's the opposite of what we usually see when we moderate an egregious comment and then take a look at what else the user has been up to—so I'm sure you didn't mean to be abusive. Just please don't do it again.
