If your read more than headline, then you should know that it is conflict of strategic interest between governments not nations.==

Lukasz what mentioned by article stategic interests? I don't really understand. Forget article, its full of imaginaries.
Just think and tell what real strategic interests maybe today?

Today Russia has the huge pile of nukes so no one in the world will try to touch russian territory. Maybe except terrorists.
Russia has territory so big that it will take centuries to develop it.

I'd say that today economical priorities of Russia lay in high techonology and science in area of russian specialization. ENERGY PRODUCTION.
Hydrogen based energy technology. Thermonuclier reactor. DO you know that planned europian thermonuclier reactor based on work of soviet-russian scientists?

Here Russia has strategic interests if you want. How Ukraine, Moldavia, Georgia can help Russia in her priotity areas? They cann't. They lost everything they got during soviet times. Scientists gone, institutions buildings rust. Russia lost something but not all.

SO russian stategic interest lays in developed countries today. France, Germany, Italy, Britain and so on.

Today Russia needs peace to develop herself in high speed. SO she try to make peace with neibors.
Russia needs markets to sell for her energy products. So she need good and honest neibors who will buy and pay.

That is all with Ukraine and others.

So if Ukraine or whoever else want to hug and kiss any alse let it be. It is nothing to do with Russia till they all pay in time and doesn't steal gas.

I think that you should explain you theories to your government. Why they are so angry that their candidate lost elections in Ukraine, why they supporting separatists and de facto occupying Georgian and Moldovian territories?

So she need good and honest neibors who will buy and pay.

And do not steal gas and oil and do not disrupt shipments which is exported to other countries. Unfortunately, honest and friendly neighbors were always in a short supply, from the West especially.

I remember once taking a train from Moscow to Berlin instead of flying as usual. My God, what a nothingness lies between Russian and German borders... I remember advices never ever even think of going through Poland. Fly or at least take a ferry to Helsinki if you do not want to be cheated or robbed or run into other troubles. Little wonder Russia wants to built pipeline across the sea.
