Just a couple of jokes from a Ukrainian friend:

Number 1: A prisoner exchange between the US and Ukraine was organized recently. They took a group of prisoners from an American prison and sent them to a Ukrainian prison. A group of Ukrainian prisoners was sent to a prison in the US.

After a month, both groups filed petitions. The Americans in the Ukrainian prison asked to be given the death penalty. The Ukrainians in the American prison asked to be given life sentences.

Number 2: You commit a crime in America, and you end up in prison. Commit a crime in Ukraine, and they make you president.
