Paradoksalno, po tej vojni se utegne Ukrajina vrniti k svoji tradiconalni zgodovinski vlogi kot nevtralne, tranzitne države, da bi ohranila neodvisnost v nastajajočem geopolitičnem redu, vendar se pri tem ne bo mogla izogniti navezavi na Rusijo. Res da se zdaj to zdi povsem neverjetno, vendar se država za razliko od ljudi ne more izseliti iz svojega okolja in geostrateške pozicije. Ukrajina bo še vedno mejila na Rusijo in še naprej bo služila kot tranzitna država za trgovino med Evropo in Rusijo.
While Russia is confidently prosecuting the war in Ukraine towards its inevitable end.
Meanwhile the ‘West’ is still negotiating with itself about the conditions under which it will have to capitulate.
Discussions continue about ‘security guarantees’ for Ukraine even as the only serious ones are those that Russia is willing to give.
The confused arguments about ‘guarantees’ are reflected in the reports of them. Consider this nonsense:
A security guarantee could encompass a wide range of issues. In return for Russia ending its invasion, a security pact could include a pledge of U.S. air support for any European-led operations should Russian troops resume their assault.
If Russia ends the war NATO like ‘security guarantees’ are to be given to Ukraine as a reward?
How is that supposed to compute? Russia started this war to prevent a further extension of NATO into Ukraine. Why should it end the fighting if, in consequence, Ukraine would end up as a quasi-member of that pact?
