Actually, it seems more and more that no 1 has much of an thought for Ukraine's future. This problem existed from the very beginning of the Russian intervention.
Neither before or after February 2022 did anyone in fact formulate goals, the sense of the actions carried out from the position of the most curious – Ukrainians. The objectives of the current war from a geopolitical point of view are rather obvious. They were expressed both in Russia's December 2021 demands and in the subsequent statements of Russian top-level officials. They logically explain the circumstances that led to the tragic armed conflict besides the analysis of prominent political scientists, safety and global policy experts, specified as Prof. John Mearsheimer, or Prof. Stanisław Bielen. We compose about them and present them in the pages of “Polish Thoughts”, trying to describe without unnecessary emotion the origin of the drama taking place close our country.
However, let us admit that academic and public considerations, as well as statements by Russian politicians (often amazingly contradictory) – all this is not adequate for a contemporary citizen of Ukraine to answer existential questions. A man threatened with death, the demolition of his home, and the failure of his full life's worth. Whose household is facing a terrible dilemma: surviving in a war-torn country and risking being sent to the front as cannonball meat, or leaving abroad, abandoning everything to live in terrible conditions often, among increasingly negative people to immigrants. The constant sense of danger, omnipresent death and panic (although hunting the Ukrainian government on alleged collaborators) make the Ukrainians want to realize what all this is for. Geopolitics and categories of global relations are not understood to the average citizen of the war-torn fallen state. Besides, he does not have time to quietly bend over elaborate elaborates on these topics. Ukrainians request a narrative. The answer to the question of the meaning of the surrounding nightmare.
The deficiency of this communicative on the Russian side caused that in the first months of the current phase of the conflict, russian symbolism, even exhibited by the entry troops of russian soldiers, was very popular. I'm certain that's the message to the older generation. However, people who sentimentally mention russian times are little and little for natural reasons. In fact, Moscow has never officially cared about any desire to rebuild the USSR, and even this kind of accusation has powerfully declined. Of course, there was inactive a concept of fresh Russia. However, it is more historical and not politically specific. Local opinion leaders, specified as late tragically deceased Kirill Striemousov, were needed to make it more concrete, having real assurance and having a uncommon gift of speaking in a language understood by the wider masses. but for a fewer exceptions, present specified people are not seen, or possibly Moscow is limiting their scope for any reason.
In this situation the text appears Viktor Medwiedczuk (read: Medwedczuk: Ukrainian syndrome | Przemyśl Polska (myślpolska.info). Actually, it is not a affirmative programme, but a diagnosis, a very brief indication of the origins of the current conflict. There is no proposal for a fresh strategy arrangement of future Ukraine, there is no concept of a socio-economic model that could actually be a clear, real position for Ukrainians. But it is rather clear that peace must prevail first. This is the most important, and all the another issues can be solved erstwhile artillery is silenced and people on the front cease to die. What's next? Ukraine will not join the European Union. The NATO she de facto joined is the origin of her tragedy. If the pro-Western government is maintained in Kiev, the country will become a land of looting assets for ruthless investment funds, specified as American BlackRock, who has already signed agreements with completely subordinate globalists Volodymyr Zelenski.
Medwiedczuk seldom creates affirmative associations. He didn't deserve any peculiar trust. However, this is not about him, but more so that his speech should become an impulse to search for a expression for the future for Ukraine and Ukrainians. War, hopefully, will end someday. And we will gotta construct this region of the planet so that it will never happen again.
