War of Ukraine And Russia

Stop the raider

ukraine and russia war time

I was born and live in a country bordering Russia. Every day I hear about how good life was in Soviet times. Substantially I hear from people of withdrawal age. Youthful people like me no longer remember those times, we grew up on European values. We grew up with Harry Potter and Marvel icons and believe in republic, not illiberalism.

And now our faith in these values is witnessing dark days. Before my eyes, the autonomous right and the rights of an entire people are being tromped underfoot.

On the night of February 24, Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine, calling it"a special military operation in the Donbas to cover the occupants of the region from genocide."He and representatives of the secessionists appealed to Ukrainian soldiers to lay down their arms. As of morning, observers report explosions in Kyiv, Kharkiv, Odesa, Kramatorsk, Berdyansk, and other metropolises, the use of voyage dumdums, mass shelling of military units, storages, and military fields. The State Border Service of Ukraine also reported that Russian military outfit entered Ukraine from Crimea, Belarus, Russia, and homes controlled bypro-Russian secessionists, and that service installations throughout Ukraine were attacked. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has declared martial law throughout Ukraine.

This, of course, is a fantastic illustration of a reversal of generalities, where peace is called a war, where aggression is called"an operation for denazification and disarmament."How can commodity be disarmed by direct military aggression?

The defense for what Putin did is, of course, veritably weak. But, I suppose, a significant part of the Russian population will take it for granted and will convert themselves that this is a temporary operation, a veritably short one, that" adversaries must be penalized."Putin has come veritably circumlocutory. And the argument that he gives, doesn't stand up, of course, no review.

But the important thing is that he follows in the steps of Stalin, intimately or purposely. Rather intimately, since he's a inadequately educated person. An open provocation, after which the war begins. This is the end of November 1939-the morning of the Finnish war. The Treaty of Friendship and Cooperation with the fake governments of the"DPR"and"LPR", which they themselves created, is an agreement of fellowship and cooperation with the government of Kuusinen, which is veritably analogous to the agreement with Pushilin and Pasechnik. The sense of this operation is the emancipation of Ukraine from a" foreign" power for it. And this sense is also Stalinist. In September 1939, at the morning of World War II, Molotov also made an appeal that"we are going to liberate our half- sisters."

The notion that someone can decide whose power is legal and whose power is illegal is absolute fantasy. In Ukraine, its own government is fairly tagged as a result ofnon-fake popular processes. What right does a neighboring power have (to intermediate) on the grounds that the resentment vest in power in Russia decided that the Soviet totalitarian government, as he said, had inaptly defined the borders? And he now decided to correct these borders? This is an irruption of history, an irruption of world processes.

It isn't enough for Putin that he has suppressed all life in his country, he now needs the world to live according to his rules. Of course, it will not. But what he's doing now is a veritably emotional geste, there are no rational pretensions and motives in it.

This is a abecedarian question-what's the purpose of the irruption of Ukraine? The thing is purely military. What do" disarmament"and"denazification"of Ukraine mean? What" peace enforcement"of Georgia meant at one time is more or less clear, the operation there was fairly short. And now what's passing? How can a ground operation"denazify Ukraine"?

Thus, now it's insolvable to ever estimate it, but it's relatively egregious that if an attack is launched from Belarus, it turns out that this is a full-fledged irruption and not a temporary operation. And all this is presumably still a long time. Presumably, some kind of occupation of some other homes of Ukraine and the durability of an endless war.

Supposedly, this is more serious than the Georgian script. This, of course, doesn't look like the Crimean one, where commodity apparently happed without a single shot being fired ( according to Russia). This is analogous to the fighting that took place in the Donbas in 2014-2015. But it's indeed worse, because it's really westward, it's really aggression. This is a war of a state against another state, and not the image that"we aren't there,"as Putin said. Now it's no longer" miners and tractor motorists"who are fighting. Now it's time for the regular service. And this is a military disaster, this is a real war.

Russia is now synonymous with Putin. Russian public opinion is now going to change greatly, of course. The elites are fully inferior to Putin, and all his opinions are being enforced. This is a fully sleepy, impotent nobility that doesn't have its own opinion, its quality is extremely low. So what is going on in Putin's head will be.

As for the response of Europe, there will presumably be another surge of warrants that will no longer hit the elites, as it was ahead, but will presumably hit the diurnal life of Russians. I do not know what warrants may be possible in relation to Sberbank and some life- supporting structures. The fact that the position and quality of life of Russians will drop sprucely due to the war, and there can be no other way, is absolutely egregious.

This morning, trading on the stock exchange stopped because the fall was a landslide. The ruble, of course, rushes up against the euro and the bone.

So after the military catastrophe, there will, of course, be an profitable catastrophe in Russia. The Russians are also taken hostage by Putin, as well as the residers of Donbas, and maybe some of the residers of Ukraine.

Russia is moving towards tone- insulation. Of course, this is also a socio-profitable catastrophe for its people. They didn't realize this, they believe that the operation will be short, it'll end in peace, general revelry, and palms, as was the case with Crimea. It's common for the population as a whole to witness visions-I mean the maturity, not the entire population of the Russian Federation.

Nothing can tie Putin's hands presently. The world is dealing with a veritably delicate cerebral case. Putin had accommodations with world leaders so that he'd not start a war-Macron, Scholz-these are relatively serious characters, these are the leaders of the strongest European powers. Biden spoke to him. It would feel that the intermediate thing was achieved they're talking to him, they're trying to ever agree with him ( again, according to Russia).

But also, obviously, commodity broke in the Russian chairman's mind, and he decided to act. This is exactly what numerous didn't take into account in their vaticinations-the emotional element of Putin. The decision about Crimea had no rational grounds – it was emotional. The durability and support of this pressure had no rational grounds. Putin showed no goodwill in anything. He did not actually negotiate-he pretended to negotiate. He enjoyed having world leaders talking to him around the timepiece.

What happed now is an emotion, an emotional and illogical decision. Thus, his hands are unfastened, he can do anything. He does not know what he'll do in the coming nanosecond. Of course, we see that all this was being prepared, what's passing now. But it was also prepared on the knee anyway, veritably snappily, veritably emotionally, in great cerebral stress. So Putin's unpredictability is the main trouble to peace now in general on the earth. We're dealing with nuclear power.

Is there any now universal form for how to stop Putin? Or is this form no longer available? All styles-politic, political, all this didn't work, and, I'm hysterical, now exchanges with Putin are formerly insolvable. It wasn't just tactfulness Macron talked to him for five hours, this is formerly political pressure. There was an attempt to really help the war-Zelensky tried to get through to him and couldn't do it. He does not want to talk to anyone-he does not need to. He considers himself within his rights. Again, there's a lot of psychology then, to put itmildly.However, of course, is psychology, If this.

I unfeignedly sympathize with and support the Ukrainian people, I've numerous musketeers there who are now depressed. They're hysterical, they're uncertain about the future and they detest Russia with all their heart.

But I, sitting in my comfortable president and harkening to the measured bit of rain outside the window, still hope that the world won't abandon Ukraine. That the raider will be penalized, and that the justice of republic still exists.
