 .https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrMiSQAGOS4 Why is Ukraine the West's Fault? by John Mearsheimer (2015) Interesting points: 1) Ukraine is badly split, the East is really pro-Russia unification, and the West really pro-European. 2) The Americans didn't like the <<cuban-missile-crisis>>", where an enemy power would install weapons on its borders. Ukraine is the same for the Russians. 3) The West wants Russia to be on our side against China. That is the big fight coming up. And in the Middle East. So we have to give some them some concessions. Ciro is a bit saddened by this kind of <<realpolitik>>, which completely disregards principles, but unfortunately, especially when dealing with <<dictatorship,dictatorships>>, it is the only way perhaps, choosing the lesser of two evils.
