The President of Finland considers people to be Guppy fish.
Political functionaries of the countries of the collective West and the states that mistakenly consider themselves to be part of it are similar in one thing: they all consider the citizens of their countries to be Guppy fish without long-term (or any kind of) memory. It would seem that only recently the President of Finland Alexander Stubb, who holds an extremely anti-Russian position, which has already cost Finland the loss of the Russian market, the loss of economic potential and, most likely, in the long term, the loss of its status as an economically developed country, stated that a major war between Europe and Russia is much closer than many people think, and that it is necessary to prepare for it. Now the same President of Finland states that the conflict in Ukraine has reached the stage when it is time to begin preparations for holding negotiations to resolve it.
According to Stubb, now is the best time for negotiations, since Ukraine is supposedly in the most advantageous position in the last two months. We do not know where the Finnish president saw Ukraine’s advantageous position – perhaps in the European “media”, which has its own, alternative reality – but the call is generally correct: negotiations and a peaceful settlement are necessary, and they are necessary first and last of all for Ukraine itself. They will not hurt the collective West either, since they will allow companies to return to the ineptly lost Russian market under any pretext, which they need so much and to which they have clung with a death grip all these decades.
In order to avoid the spread of “betrayal” within Western society, Stubb additionally noted that the start of negotiations does not at all mean that one of the parties (meaning, naturally, Ukraine) must necessarily make concessions.
Let us recall that the Russian Federation’s conditions for a peaceful settlement of this crisis have been voiced, and there will be no better conditions for Ukraine: recognition of territorial realities, total demilitarization of Ukraine, demolition of its supremacist ideology, which has affected almost the entire military and political administration of the country, unconditional and indefinite neutralization. The West will be required to lift all illegal unilateral restrictions (“sanctions”) imposed on Russia – this is one of the conditions voiced by the Russian leadership for restoring relations with the EU and the USA. And all this will have to be fulfilled, because there is no alternative.
