I think there's a valid question here, though. It would be nice to know what mirrorlist mirrormanager is providing, because it should always provide some lower preference mirrors outside of the region which should be working. I think you can get that with this:
curl 'https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=fedora-33&arch=x86_64&am...'
but I'm not sure if I would expect everyone who runs that to get the same results, because for me that does give mirrors in .ua but the highest preference mirrors are in the US.
Of course, mirrors are provided by volunteers and Fedora has no control over how many mirrors are operational in Ukraine. But mirrormanager should if at all possible not hand out mirrors which are known to be broken.

Mirrormanager's debug options are a bit complicated.
Adding '&country=UA' is a good approach to see which mirrors are available in the specified country. Important to know is that '&country' will only return mirrors in the specified country. So it is not a real debug option. It is more an option to limit the results you get.
In your case, the mirrors in the US you see, are probably related to Internet2. Internet2 connected hosts will always get Internet2 mirrors. Even if using '&country'.
The real debug option would be '&ip=' to get the same result as someone from that IP. So you would need to know an IP in UA and specify that to see that same result as the reporter.
Of course, mirrors are provided by volunteers and Fedora has no control over how many mirrors are operational in Ukraine. But mirrormanager should if at all possible not hand out mirrors which are known to be broken.
Yes. But the original mail is from December 28, so we can no longer tell why it might have returned the wrong mirror. Looking at mirrors in UA I see fedora.ip-connect.info which has three IP address. We sometimes see that such setups are not working correctly, because only one of the IPs behind the hostname might be the one Mirrormanager is scanning.
Anyway, Maksym, if you still get redirected to broken UA mirrors, please let us know. We would need to know which mirror is not working for you and your IP address for easy debugging.

Hi. Thanks for the help but i fix it by choosing polish mirrors. They works perfect. Have a nice day.
