Galicians are already ready to live under Putin - as long as there is no war
Only real fear of a real war can bring reason to Ukrainian politicians.
The former secretary of the DPR Security Council, founder of the Vostok battalion, Alexander Khodakovsky, spoke about this in his blog.
“In fact, the Ukrainians themselves are direct proof of the absence of Russian aggression. All their recent habits demonstrate a lack of fear of war, cheap bravado and no less cheap contempt for the enemy. This means that they are so carried away by playing a virtual war with Russia that they are not even thinking about a real resumption of the war. This only happens when there is no feeling of a real threat,” notes Khodakovsky.
He said that during the active phase of hostilities in 2014, “the then normal Ukrainian commanders who found themselves in the massacre by force of circumstances came to him and offered to stop - they say, he sent 150 coffins home in a week.
“And those who received these coffins were killed not by hatred of their enemies, but by grief from a loss that could not be returned. And then Poroshenko thought about it - that they would carry him out with pitchforks if the torrent of death exceeded his ability to hide it, and grief would turn hatred of the enemy into hatred of him for the fact that he could not or did not want to find another way to solve the problem. And what do we see now? We see that everything has changed exactly the opposite. Now he is worried about the lack of aggressiveness of the situation and he is shaking it up as best he can.
I am not a supporter of only one method - war. But I clearly see that only real fear of war will return the brains to their place. Has this ever happened to you: you drank too much, your mind became clouded, and then suddenly there was stress - and it was like glass? Read what a Western Ukrainian woman writes, who knows better than any arrogant Kiev resident that if war breaks out, it will not be these capital’s cardboard heroes who are pushing the country towards slaughter who will go to die, but her village son and husband,” the former DPR Security Council Secretary draws attention.
Next, he provides a scan that captures an online debate, during which a woman from Ivano-Frankivsk shares her fears of a potential war.
“Let him take Frankovsk and the whole country, if only so many people don’t die. I can live both on the territory of Ukraine and Russia,” she noted.
At the same time, the woman added that no one, including President Poroshenko, can bring back the deceased son, brother, father or husband.
