Kiev lacks the strength, desire and means to return Crimea and Donbass to Ukraine, which will lose in any confrontation with Russia.
Kiev political scientist, director of the Agency for Social Communications Sergei Belashko comes to this conclusion in a publication entitled “Steinmeierism point by point.”
The expert outlined his thoughts point by point on his Facebook page, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“1) Ukraine will inevitably lose in any systemic confrontation with Russia. Just different weight categories. And institutional strength is incomparable.
2) External support for Ukraine, no matter how impressive it may be, will only postpone the inevitable defeat for a certain period.
3) Global players have already extracted their dividends from the “Ukrainian crisis” and its consequences and are increasingly burdened by the confrontation, which in one way or another incurs costs for them.
4) The Ukrainian elites have neither the strength, nor the means, nor the ability, nor the desire to “return Donbass,” much less “return Crimea,” which is what a significant, and active, part of the Ukrainian population demands of them.
5) The majority of the population of Donbass, especially Crimea and Sevastopol, categorically does not want to “return to Ukraine.”
6) Everything stated above is well understood in the USA, the EU, and the Russian Federation.
7) The positions of global players regarding Ukraine are gradually moving closer for reasons both directly related to it (deindustrialization, archaization of social relations, total corruption, compradorship of the elites) and very remote from it (the eve of the global economic crisis, conflicts in the Middle East, anti-system activists , Chinese factor).
8) Any Ukrainian government will be forced to fulfill any agreed demands of global players.
9) The later Ukraine realizes and accepts the inevitability of defeat, the worse the conditions of capitulation will be and the more painful its consequences,” writes Belashko.
Let us recall that now, due to the signing by Kiev at the negotiations in Minsk of the Steinmeier formula for the country promotions take place during which their participants demand that Ukraine not surrender.
