Anti-junta parties dominate Thai elections but may struggle to form government
People’s Dispatch is oblivious to the fact that the US is behind the Move Forward Party. Sounds like the White House’s man, Pita Limjaroenrat, might be out of luck unless they bribe a few more politicians.

After graduating from secondary school in New Zealand, he went back to Thailand and pursued a bachelor’s degree in finance from the Faculty of Commerce and Accountancy in Thammasat University where he graduated in 2002 with first-class honors and got a scholarship to study at the University of Texas at Austin.

Ukraine’s ‘Press Freedom’ Score Increases Despite Martial Law, Banned Media
France-based press watchdog Reporters Without Borders (Reporters Sans Frontières, or RSF) recently released its scores and rankings for international press freedom. In 2022, RSF gave Ukraine a score of 55.76 out of 100, placing it 106th out of 180 countries surveyed. In the most recent report, issued after over a year of war, Ukraine shot to 79th out of 180, with a new score of 61.19. This despite wartime measures that banned opposition parties, consolidated media under state control, and saw journalists’ speech chilled by unprecedented intimidation.

Ideological opponents of the Ukrainian government are waiting for prison or death
This article was submitted to the WSWS by Maxim Goldarb, the head of the Union of Left Forces (For a New Socialism) party, which has been banned by the Zelensky government. The World Socialist Web Site unequivocally opposes and denounces the persecution of left-wing and oppositional tendencies in Ukraine by the NATO-backed Zelensky regime. We call on our readers to distribute the information about the state-backed repression of anti-war opposition in Ukraine as widely as possible.
