As the US and its allies ramp up support for Israel, Kiev’s situation looks even bleaker, and we are beginning to read more about the claims of the vultures circling overhead who are looking to grab a piece of what is left of the country following the cessation of hostilities. They believe they have some right. We can look at this in more detail a little later. If we are to look at the situation realistically, what needs to happen is provide a solution that ticks all of the boxes, but the overriding factors being the security of Russian borders alongside guaranteeing the hard fought for objectives of the SMO being not just a short-term fix, but permanently enforced.
With these absolute requirements in mind, there is only one solution to the ‘Ukraine’ problem. The claims of Poland and Romania, whilst having a degree of historic credibility, lack even the most basic of requirements to enable Russia to have the objectives of its SMO safeguarded going forward.
Poland is a major NATO and US enabler, with more than 10,000 US troops in the country, backed up by air support. This fact alone makes Poland an absolute nonstarter in any ‘negotiation’ over the future of Ukraine. Romania homes about 3000 or so US troops, the numbers of which, like Poland, will be probably considerably higher at this time. How can such claims possibly be entertained with any degree of seriousness? Simply, they cannot.
Russia will not move on the successful completion of the objectives of the SMO, and in order to ensure there is no return to these totally unacceptable actions perpetrated by Ukraine, only direct involvement by Russia can hope to guarantee this.
The stark reality is that 30 years of Ukrainian ‘independence’ has brought nothing but disaster to the country. As part of the USSR, Ukraine was a prosperous region with its heavy industry in the east and rich agricultural lands more westerly, not for nothing was the country known as the breadbasket of Europe. Following the dissolution of the USSR, Ukraine claimed its independence, despite not ever really having been an independent sovereign nation- the very name Ukraine, being a Russian translation of the word ‘frontier’ – as this region was indeed historically the frontier lands of Russia.
We must also consider who in reality should have any rights claim territory at the conclusion of hostilities. We have already touched upon what are basically nefarious claims from US puppets and NATO members Poland and Romania which have no real validity going forward in providing an acceptable solution for Russia.
We are seeing more and more mention in the media of ‘negotiations’, but who are these parties that will be involved in any negotiations, and what exactly will they bring to the table? Kiev has been utterly defeated by the Russian forces on the battlefield, with their sponsors NATO, the EU and Washington, unable to alter the course of the war in Ukraine’s favour. This begs the question, what exactly does any of this unholy alliance have to negotiate with? The answer is quite simply nothing.
If media reports are to be believed, then it would appear the next leader of Ukraine will be the choice of either MI6 or the CIA. I mean, what is this nonsense? It only goes to prove that what would be in store for Ukraine and its now beleaguered population is going to be more of the same.
It is about time that we all stopped kidding ourselves and sought to resolve the situation once and for all. There is no negotiating position for Ukraine or Washington and her allies. Their war is lost. Ukraine has been defeated, it is time to reform and rebuild. No more of the obscenities we have learned about from the enlightened media. The Bioweapon research labs funded by Washington; the despicable trade in human organs; people trafficking; endemic corruption which has destroyed the economy; State theft, the billions which have been stolen by those that were meant to serve the people and not themselves; the business of money laundering at State level; the cancerous promotion of Nazism; Russophobia and the intervention of foreign powers (the US) in pursuit of political agendas. The ongoing security of Russian borders and that of the Russian peoples.
The list is long, and very depressing to read, however, the answer to this is a very obvious one, but not one we ever see talked about on the media as it is unpalatable to the western allies, and that is the dissolution of the State of Ukraine and its return to the successor of the USSR, the Russian Federation. This will guarantee the future of the country with all of the benefits this will bring, economically, culturally and socially. From Russia’s point of view, the security issue, which is perhaps the major concern, will also be solved at a stroke. The machinations of unfriendly nations as has been the case in Ukraine for decades will be a thing of the past. Those nations will be put on notice, Ukraine is once again part of the Russian Federation, so interfere at your peril.
So, Russian border security will be an absolute. Borders of Ukraine will remain unchanged; however, these borders will now represent a Ukraine within the Russian Federation, with all of the security and political implications this development will engender. We must address the proposal of dissolution which to some observers will appear radical, or even unacceptable, however, the international community has accepted the dissolution of Nagorno-Karabakh as the solution to the ongoing problems between Armenia and Azerbaijan, therefore the dissolution of Ukraine can, and should be accepted as the only realistic solution in order to preserve and restore the country. At a stroke, as previously stated, this will also solve Moscow’s concerns over the security of Russian borders and the Russian peoples within those borders. Given the history of Ukraine, which has been indisputably linked to Russia by blood and culture for centuries, this could only be a positive way forward. Objections, however, will no doubt come from those countries harbouring a duplicitous political agenda, which inevitably go hand in hand with major corporations run by self-serving elites who had been anticipating huge profits as government appointed contractors.
The benefits to Ukraine as a Republic within the Russian Federation are considerable. A republic is often a separate small country that has become a part of Russia, having their own cultural traditions and even language. The Federal government in Moscow guarantees the protection of these cultural traditions and language so they are not lost. Russia is proud of its diverse population, multi-cultural background and languages which have all been present throughout its long, and often turbulent history. It is, however, this very diversity, united in its love for the Motherland, which has held the country together through those turbulent times.
As has happened in the Donbas and Crimea, all Ukrainian citizens will become Russian subjects. They will not be treated as second class citizens. They will not be used as vassals to further a political agenda as has happened with US interventionism. In the Russian Constitution, all subjects of Russia have equal rights. There is no tier system. There is no racism. In the Constitution, a republic is described as a “state” being part of another country. The republic does have some additional state powers, one being that the republic has the right to establish its own state language alongside Russian. There is no pressure from Moscow to mandate Russian as the sole language. Customs and traditions are not only safeguarded within the Russian Federation, but encouraged, NOT demanded. The Constitution, however, does not allow any other sovereignty other than the sovereignty of the multinational peoples of Russia, and therefore the Russian Federation. So, for Ukraine and its people, language, culture and tradition is safeguarded and guaranteed by Moscow, without the prospect of outside interference. As a “republic” within the Russian Federation, this does not, however, include the recognition of sovereignty, rather it will reflect Ukraine’s historical, national and cultural status which is inextricably linked to Russia.
Following the cessation of hostilities, there will be an immediate need for the restoration and redevelopment of essential services, housing, and the economic structure of Ukraine. In the press we read constantly of Washington handing out contracts to their favoured corporations who undoubtedly have a stake in government and a hand in their pocket. Unlike these huge corporations which are looking to reap equally huge rewards for the contracts that are doled out to them, Moscow, as has been shown in regions of the Donbas, will be undertaking this very same work with only the rebuilding of the country as its only incentive, not for profit. The Federal government in Moscow sees the financial support of the Regions as a tool to equalise budgetary security of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. None of these benefits, which will be essential for the recovery of every aspect of life in Ukraine, will not be provided in any other scenario save for the country’s return to the Russian Federation as a constituent republic.
Having secured the objectives of the Special Military Operation, the road to recovery for Ukraine must commence without undue delay, without interference from those nations whose only motivation is exploitation for profit or strategic political agendas. It is precisely such divisive practices have been responsible for driving Ukraine and her people along a path to destruction, yet these very same nations demand to be involved directly in the mapping of her future? How can such claims be taken seriously? Russia and her people have a long history with Ukraine stretching back centuries with Russian blood flowing through the veins of the nation. Ukraine has never been so successful as it has been with Russia, both economically and socially. Interventionist strategies promoted by Washington in order to destabilise the country, subjugate its people and hijack its history, culture and traditions cannot be allowed to reoccur in any shape or form. The security of Russia, her subjects and her borders are sacrosanct. The Ukraine ‘experiment’ sponsored by the western alliance has failed dismally. It has only served to strengthen Russia militarily, economically and in terms of its global reputation. If Ukraine is to move forward as opposed to sink further towards terminal decline, then her place is back with Russia for all of the benefits, and more, as outlined above. There can be no other option for Kiev and her people, and for Moscow, if sanity is to prevail. Any other solution to the Ukraine ‘problem’ is unworkable, unrealistic and unacceptable.
