• What Ukraine will remain at the end of the war? According to the signing of the Minsk Convention in 2014, Ukraine could be completed. Also according to the document I was willing to sign in Turkey on 2022. Russia had no intention of acquiring land from Ukraine. But after a war of one and a half years, things have changed considerably in terms of territoriality. Luhansk and the Republic of Donetsk, which were suffering the genocide, are already integrated into Russia and will not go back. The same applies to Zaporizhia and Kherson, who are on their way to crime, who also won a referendum and then made the same request. These five regions will remain within Russia. Other regions such as Odessa or Kharkiv could end up in Russia. Poland has always shown its intention to recover eastern Galitzia. Hungary and Romania also have a part of their former membership in Ukraine. We must therefore see what Ukraine will remain at the end of the war.
• New Government of Ukraine: Since the coup d'état called "Euromaidan" took place in 2014, all powers were acquired by the Nazis. In just ten years his fascist ideology has had the right to be cultivated. Closing the media, banning political parties and trade unions, filling the jails of left-wing militants, pursuing historical Orthodox religion, making the books of prestigious Russian writers disappear, breaking down the monuments and memories of the war against Nazi Germany -- are just a few examples of this savage, uniformizing policy. This policy of these ten years and its drivers will have no place in the renewed Ukraine. Politicians elected by the citizens must take the helm of the country and make a more citizen-oriented policy. Empty jails, legalise political parties and trade unions, reopen roads to the closed media and the Russian Orthodox Church harassed... This point fully coincides with the objective of de-nazifying Ukraine of this peculiar military operation that Putin declared and which will surely be on the peace table from the first day they will begin to speak.
• NATO in Ukraine? : He who wins the war sets the terms of the peace agreement. The non-inclusion of NATO in Ukraine will be the first condition for peace that Russia will place on the negotiating table. The coup that took place in Ukraine in 2014 was organised and financed by the Yankees, first weakening Russia and then breaking, with a recognised goal. To do so, I needed Ukraine within NATO. But after winning the war, Russia interrupts them.
• Does an organisation like NATO make sense today? Russia has assured on 11 occasions that it does not intend to extend beyond its borders or to conquer new lands. Today's NATO is therefore meaningless. They have many questions – and contradictions – on the table and disappearance is an option.
• European Union and Ukraine: The President of the European Commission, Mr von der Leyen, has repeated to Zelenski that he has the doors of the European Union open if he meets a number of requirements. But once the war is over, is that possible? Ukraine's infrastructures are destroyed, no more economically indebted, the entire corrupt administration, some 10 million people displaced outside the Ukrainian country... Who will handle this long list? Who is going to pay the huge investments needed for Ukraine’s adaptation? How many euros should each Western European put? Is this acceptable? Hungary, Austria and Slovakia have already refused. Ukraine risks remaining as a failed state.
• Have the US achieved the goal? : They hoped to crack the Russian economy with the penalties imposed. Putin was to be expelled from the government, the Russian Federation was to be broken into eleven pieces and henceforth would have facilities to access its property. But Russia has hit the head of the war and, after an exercise of enormous diplomacy, has won many new friends both in Asia (China, India…) and in Africa and South America. Its economy has grown and has the strongest army in Europe. The BRICS College, led by Russia and China, is consolidating, as more and more countries are demanding to enter it. No, EE.UU. It hasn't achieved its goal at all.
