"Slovak 83.82%, Hungarian 7.75%, Romani 1.23%, other 0.68% (includes Czech, Rusyn, Ukrainian, Russian, German, Polish), unspecified 5.42% (2021 census)"

People in melting pots are obliged to unlearn basic facts, and this leads to a lot of predictable situations.

Generally in more melting potted places corruption is refined, but Ukraine is a fairly new melting pot by modern Western standards and it will be facing a corruption storm soon.

5) It's economics
"Inflation is running at 17.5 per cent, despite Sri Lanka’s central bank raising interest rates by 200 basis points from their pandemic-era lows."
