Incompleteness syndrome: Russia enters the New Year with an unfinished war
Moscow - Simferopol, December 29 (PolitNavigator, Mikhail Stamm) - “Russia is approaching the end of 2014 with a powerful syndrome of incompleteness. In the past year, we began a confrontation with the West over the Ukrainian crisis, but we were never able to end it,” he writes in his final New Year’s article МК. We will have to take all these hardships with us not only into 2015, but also into 2016. The Crimeans are in the worst situation now, but all poor Russians will suffer.

“In psychology there is such a concept - unfinished action syndrome. As the experiments of the young Soviet psychologist Bluma Zeigarnik showed back in 1925, the memory of one’s unfinished actions remains with a person much longer than of completed actions. If the number of such unfinished actions becomes significant, then this causes a state of chronic stress,” writes the author of the article.
“Russia is approaching the end of 2014 with a powerful syndrome of incompleteness. In the past year, we began a confrontation with the West over the Ukrainian crisis, but we were never able to end it. The heavy political baggage of 2014 will not be thrown away along with the used Christmas tree at the beginning of the working part of January. This disgusting baggage will carry with us into 2015, and maybe into 2016. No one now knows when exactly it will be possible to connect the concepts of “completeness” and “crisis over Ukraine,” the source continues.
“Residents of Crimea, to a much greater extent than all other Russians, now feel the bite of asymmetric sanctions from the United States, Europe and Ukraine,” the newspaper summarizes. – But to some extent, we are all Crimeans now. The West is not targeting Putin. The West is hitting us all. This fact is unpleasant. But he is a fact."
