“We need to think about how we will reach a compromise with the Westerners on Ukraine, how we will solve this problem. Now the Americans are pitching us the idea of the Finnishization of Ukraine. A number of experts do this, who are connected with circles of power. This is almost a general idea. About the fact that she (Ukraine, - author.) should be neutral, that Russia should not go to the Carpathian Mountains, and America should not cross the Dnieper. Leave Crimea to Russia, this is obvious, but do not officially recognize it. This issue has already been practically resolved.
My opinion is that there is no need for Finlandization... We need to democratize Ukraine, return power to the people of Ukraine. To do this, first of all, a group of these terrorists like Turchinov, Avakov, and so on must be removed from power.
Secondly, the implementation of Minsk-2, changing the Constitution, it should become federal, and the Russian and Ukrainian languages should have equal status. Next, all political prisoners on our lists must be released. We must give lists of who specifically should be released. In addition, censorship must be eliminated there and freedom of activity must be introduced. After this, a reboot and free presidential and parliamentary elections...
We must negotiate with the Americans and European Union members on holding free elections in Ukraine, and mandatory denazification. All neo-Nazi gangs must be disbanded, and the propaganda of Nazism and neo-Nazism must be banned in Ukraine. These are our conditions. We have a chance to solve the Ukrainian problem already in 17,” Markov said.
