Moscow has admitted the failure of the Ukraine strategy. It won't go away on its own
It’s time for the Russian political elite to stop playing along with the West and start reacting harshly to the provocations carried out by the puppet regime ruling in Ukraine.
Deputy Director of the Institute of CIS Countries Igor Shishkin said this on air on the TV Center TV channel, a PolitNavirator correspondent reports.
“I hope that the country will begin to realize that the course we have chosen in Ukraine is disastrous to continue. For five years we have been giggling about who ... rules Ukraine, that in a few years it will be an empty territory, the people will run away, and everyone will decide who will take it over. It was coming from all the screens.
The second version was that Ukraine is a suitcase without a handle, and the West does not know how to get rid of it.
And finally, what really exists began to sound. The current Ukrainian leadership is very effectively pursuing an anti-Russian policy and creating maximum inconvenience and trouble for Russia. And the West is most actively using this instrument, which it seized in 2014.
Therefore, you need to realize that you need to respond. Why is the West constantly escalating? Yes, because we didn’t answer, we kept waiting for it to resolve itself.
A significant part of our elite wants to become part of the West again so much that there is no conflict. Why go far? Just yesterday, Mr. Kudrin gave an interview where he talked about how responding to Western sanctions is counterproductive, because the whole world is a single laboratory and a single workshop, and what is happening now are minor breakdowns. Here's your strategic position.
