Independence or alliance with the islamic pod people of western europe? Western Europe is on the brink of financial collapse, the demographics are in the toilet and Ukraine sees this as the better choice. Makes you wonder who is running the protest movement.
Some on FR have speculated Soros, but until I see concrete evidence one of his groups is involved, I’m skeptical even though it is his MO.
You’re right about demographics, but its Ukraine’s demographics that will suffer if Ukrainians get a free pass into the UK and Germany. They’ll leave Ukraine and never return, much like 13% of Latvians did.
This situation is very complex with multiple competing interests at work. Its dumb to view it as just EU vs. Russia. It will be interesting to see how it ends.
Now that is an inadvertently sad comment about the state of affairs in Russia.
