Bull - Unless the West - by the way EU and W on the same side? - can feed and warm and provide jobs for the Ukrainians the Ukrainians will be linke dto Russia - from which they get most of their feul and trade. The Cold War was about ideology and economics be damned. The post cold war world turns on economic relationships.
