So, expulsion of "ethnic Russians" being the possible "long term solution" to the "ethnic Russian problem" in the Ukraine, why should anyone help a "government" that does not represent the entire population of the Ukraine and is sympathetic to expelling a huge percentage of the population?
Why should the EU, the US, or anyone else lift a finger to help people who are infatuated with the idea of an ethnically pure State not unlike the State Nazi Germany envisioned for Germany?
Now about my original questions . . .
So, expulsion of "ethnic Russians" being the possible "long term solution" to the "ethnic Russian problem" in the Ukraine, why should anyone help a "government" that does not represent the entire population of the Ukraine and is sympathetic to expelling a huge percentage of the population? Why should the EU, the US, or anyone else lift a finger to help people who are infatuated with the idea of an ethnically pure State not unlike the State Nazi Germany envisioned for Germany?For the same reason that the Allies backed the expulsion of Germans from Danzig, Konigsberg and the Sudetenland - because they serve as a focal point for the irredentist ambitions of an imperialist power. The issue isn't that they're not Ukrainian - it's that they're used as an excuse for, and heavily back the territorial ambitions of an expansive power. The analogue of Nazi Germany in this situation is Russia, not Ukraine.
