That’s why there can be no losing for the West in Ukraine. To the Mackinderists at the top of the power structures in London, Washington D.C. and Brussels, losing Ukraine means losing the entire world, because they have this very-outdated view of world geography.

Hitler claimed that the people in the Sudetenland wanted to be part of Germany. France and Britain let Hitler have the Sudetenland thinking this would appease Hitler. Instead, Hitler took over all of Czechoslovakia. This is similar to Putin claiming that the people of East Ukraine want to be part of Russia.

If half of Ukrainians don't like the government, they would not be fighting so ferociously. The UN has condemned Russia for invading Ukraine. If Russia has a grievance against Ukraine, it should take it before the UN.

Russia took their concern for the Russian speaking Ukrainian people before Geneva, in the proper manor the UN would have wanted, following long standing treaties. Russia literally took the submissive approach and cooperated with the US/EU as if a member......they were laughed at and ridiculed for their concerns of genocide in their neighboring country, many against Russian blood relations.

Our US and EU leaders had been publicly boasting about preparing West Ukraine for an offensive to finally finish off East Ukrainians any year now, for the last five years. Evil colonist countries never change, especially with such high levels of corruption in charge.
