Thus, the famous American analyst and publicist Marvin Kalb presented his book “Putin’s Imperial Risky Game” in Washington. Russia, Ukraine and the New Cold War,” which argues that Ukraine will never be able to build a viable economy and democracy, and the United States should not invest billions of dollars in this. Russia, according to him, has rights to Crimea, because it has been part of it since the time of Catherine the Great. This was reported by the Ukrainian emigration channel Voice of America.
“To believe that by giving a couple of billion more we can change the situation is naive. I don’t think it’s responsible for us in the West to feed the naive dreams of Ukrainians. Because they are the ones who have to live with a real perception of where they are. And that reality is that they border Russia, which has its own ideas about what it wants,” Kalb said at the presentation.
As historian and former US State Department employee Alexey Sobchenko notes, Kalb’s opinion is important for Americans, among whom the opinion is increasingly heard about the pointlessness of supporting Ukraine.
