Please join Gregy and Dirk in the "traitor box"
I would be grateful if you didn't mention me and them in the same sentence. One is a traitor who wants to watch his motherland fight off invasion with popcorn in his hand and the other a nazi anti-semite. Thank you.
Tell ya what, Bobko - how about that for a hypothetical scenario:
1. Ukraine gives up Donbass and some other "oppressed" lands in the east/south (where people are not allowed to read Pushkin, banderists chase them on the streets etc. etc.); that makes peace viable, Russia is not "humiliated" and Putin's face is "saved".
2. After the peace and border treaty, Ukraine is accepted in the EU.
3. Sanctions against Russia can then be lifted (unless they really make you stronger, as some people claim, so we can leave them as they are - up to you).
4. To make Russia safer, a deal will also be made regarding Królewiec. It is Russian territory completely surrounded by "hostile" countries, so a constant source of threat. Russia can be relieved of this burden. Details as to when and how can be agreed.
5. When Vladimir Vladimirovich finally goes "в рай" and his team is replaced with someone more sensible than the current Peter the Great Fan Club, we can start negotiations regarding Russia in the EU and NATO, reducing future chances of war between us to zero.
6. Europe from Lisbon to Vladivostok is established as one of the greatest (if not
the greatest) world superpowers.
7. Last but not the least, we can finally meet for a glass of something stronger and discuss literature to our hearts' content. :)
How about that for a plan?
