USA: Coronavirus gave a unique chance to return Crimea to Ukraine

74

A number of American politicians (including retired ones) sees in the situation with the coronavirus a "chance" for Russia to get away from sanctions, sacrificing, however, its foreign policy interests for this. For example, three former US ambassadors to Ukraine - William Taylor, Stephen Pifer and John Herbst, believe that now is the time to try to settle the problem of Donbass and Crimea. The American website National Public Radio writes about this.

According to former ambassadors, the COVID-19 epidemic in Russia, exacerbating the already severe economic the crisis opens the door for new initiatives to return Crimea to Ukraine and resolve military-political problems in the east of the country.



The rampage of the coronavirus and the decline in oil prices, the sale proceeds of which fill most of the Russian budget, are a good opportunity to put pressure on Moscow and force Putin to return Crimea to Ukraine and withdraw Russian troops from Donbass

- American politicians are sure.

Of course, the United States will play the role of the main “peacekeeper”, having put forward the above initiatives, and thus strengthen its foreign policy influence both in Ukraine and in the world as a whole. In this difficult time, Russia as never before has suffered from Western sanctions imposed on the country just for the “annexation” of Crimea and for the war in the Donbass, and the Russian authorities can now flinch and back down.

    The Americans somehow think tightly, they just can’t understand that Russia will never give up Crimea. Never. Crimea is Russia.

      Crimea is Russia

      Crimea, de jure temporarily occupied territory. You can’t recognize him as Russian. Today it’s a suitcase without a handle, it’s hard to carry it, but you can’t leave it, so let it carry it, it’s torn.

        Crimea has never been Ukrainian de jure, because it was transferred to Russia from Turkey under the Yassa peace treaty, and the document is written in such a way that Turkey recognizes Crimea as Russian, but if Russia refuses Crimea, it will return to Turkey, not Ukraine and not Canada ...

        Crimea officially through the all-Crimean referendum in 2014, when an anti-constitutional coup and illegal seizure of power in Ukraine took place, which the Crimeans did not recognize, legally left the collapsed Ukraine, proclaiming its independence, and then also through the all-Crimean referendum became part of Russia - all actions were carried out in accordance with the UN Charter and international law, so there was NO "annexation" and "occupation" of Crimea by Russian troops.

      In principle, amer can be answered in the same way:

      The rampant coronavirus and falling oil prices, the sale proceeds of which fill most of the US budget, are a good opportunity to put pressure on Washington and force Trump and Congress to return Texas to Mexico and withdraw US troops from all US-occupied countries, closing American bases around the world

          Hey, do you equate the victorious Soviet people with the Nazis? Do not you take a lot, Bandera, yourself?

          You have nothing to do with the "victorious nation". Hitler was defeated by the anti-Hitler coalition. But in fact, America won over everyone. America fought on all fronts, in Europe and Asia and Africa. America fed-watered-armed both the British and the Soviet, you have not settled with the Americans for the planes and cars that you did not return, until now. Is this a "rich country"? The USSR and Stalin was the aggressor, I don't need to prove anything, it's enough to remember that the USSR was expelled from the League of Nations for aggression against tiny Finland. The Red Terror was even worse than the Brown Terror. Therefore, when Hitler came, the entire Red Army surrendered to him and the Nazis were greeted as liberators. Then, of course, they realized that these were not liberators, but that was only later. Now the Russian Federation is behaving as Hitler's Germany did in the 30s. The milestones are the same. Irreplaceable dictator, Anschluss under the banner of "helping the Russians", attacks on neighbors, military hysteria, participation in wars, cartoons about the wunderwaffe, wonder weapons, dictate of one party, terror-light, light terror within the country, fanning nationalist sentiments, etc. and so on and so forth.

The war with Japan was still going on when the fighting in Europe stopped. US nuclear weapons were used to break Japan in 1946. Or, by that time, do you think the war in Europe was still going on?

                    Yeah. The USSR did not want to fight with Japan on two fronts either, so it decided to make peace by signing a non-aggression treaty.

                    The USSR attacked Japan immediately after the victory of the Americans, when the Japanese had already surrendered and tore off a piece of themselves from Japan. Like jackals.

                    You are wrong. After the capture of the USSR, Berlin and the end of the war in Europe, the USA asked the USSR to help defeat Japan, even the Americans dropped atomic bombs on Japan, by the way, in what year, huh? Exactly AFTER 1945. And everything to break the Japan hated by the Americans. By the way, you also think the Americans are jackals, because they attacked "peaceful" Japan from your words?

                About peaceful Japan.

                In 1931, Japan invaded Manchuria from the territory of Korea, occupied it and created the puppet state of Manzhou-Guo. In the summer of 1937, Tokyo launched a full-scale war against China. In the same year, Shanghai, Beijing and Nanjing fell. On the territory of the latter, the Japanese army staged one of the most monstrous massacres in world history. From December 1937 to January 1938, the Japanese military killed, using mostly cold steel, up to 500 thousand civilians and disarmed soldiers. The killings were accompanied by monstrous torture and rape. Rape victims, from young children to older women, were then brutally murdered. The total number of deaths as a result of Japanese aggression in China amounted to 30 million people.

                Why Japan comply with the non-aggression pact with the USSR. Silenok did not have enough to fight the USSR.

                As for the position of the USSR, in 1938-1939, Japanese troops tried to attack the Soviet units in the area of ​​Lake Khasan and the Khalkhin-Gol River, but were defeated.
                Official Tokyo was convinced that it was facing an enemy too strong, and in 1941, a neutrality pact was signed between Japan and the USSR.
                Adolf Hitler tried to force his Japanese allies to break the pact and attack the USSR from the east, but Soviet intelligence and diplomats managed to convince Tokyo that it could cost Japan too much, and the treaty remained in force de facto until August 1945. The United States and Great Britain received fundamental consent for Moscow’s entry into the war with Japan from Joseph Stalin in February 1945 at the Yalta Conference.

                About what the Americans went to break Japan. On August 2, 1945, as you see, the United States was still at war with Japan. And in Europe, the war ended on May 9, 1945.

                On August 2, 1945, all the components necessary for assembling the Fat Man were delivered to Tinian.

                The aim of the first strike was the seventh most populated city in Japan - Hiroshima, where at that time about 245 thousand people lived. On the territory of the city was the headquarters of the fifth division and the second main army. On August 6, the US Air Force B-29 bomber, under the command of Colonel Paul Tibbets, took off from Tinian and headed for Japan. Around 08:00, the plane was over Hiroshima and dropped the “Baby” bomb, which exploded 576 meters above the ground. At 08:15, all hours stopped in Hiroshima.

            You have nothing to do with the "victorious nation". Hitler was defeated by the anti-Hitler coalition. But in fact, America won over everyone. America fought on all fronts, in Europe and Asia and Africa.

            Come on. Only the USSR fought with Germany, and in fact with a united Europe under the leadership of the Germans and it was with American money that the Reich rose. So you are right in saying that

            America fed-watered-armed

            - the truth is not the USSR and Great Britain, but Germany - Hitler. Just as recently, America created and fueled ISIS, which Russia also defeated, plus Syria and Iran, but the US, which created ISIS, declared (they lied, as always) that they defeated ISIS. But Americans love to fish in troubled waters, after untying a mess. They have a business in the war, in the blood and the Second World War was provoked by the Americans in order to rise up and rule over the devastated countries themselves. What recently happened in Iraq, is now in Syria, the same thing happened in post-war Europe. The USA is the director of the massacre, and not the winner - the liberator, which is trying hard to prove with the help of propaganda in the media, history books, with the help of Hollywood, driving around like you. And you are happy for a barrel of jam and a box of cookies to believe in anything you like.
            Berlin took the USSR. Anglo-Saxons understood. what the war is about, they entered it only at the end of 1943 in order to catch the distribution of elephants for victory.

            The USSR and Stalin was an aggressor, I do not have to prove anything, just remember that the USSR was expelled from the League of Nations for aggression against tiny Finland. Red terror was even worse than brown. Therefore, when Hitler came, the whole Red Army surrendered to him and the Nazis were greeted as liberators. Then, of course, they realized that they were not liberators, but that was only later. Now the Russian Federation is behaving like Hitler's Germany of the 30s. Milestones are the same.

            Unfortunately, I am not a doctor and I can’t make an accurate diagnosis after reading all this absurdity from some parallel reality. Especially about how the Red Army, which took Berlin, it turns out, all surrendered to Hitler. Even elementary logic is broken. What can I talk about here? request

              More likely no, it is not broken, it is substituted, some concepts are replaced by others.

            Hmm ... it’s clear where the wind blew from ... Go, dig the sea further - you betrayed yourself ... the digger ...
            Where did America defeat the Nazis? On Midway? Or maybe during the Arden operation?
            However, to whom am I proving ... In general, go ... dig the sea further.

    You were deceived, it was not a referendum, it was a special operation to create the appearance of a referendum. A kind of fake, fake.


    Well, not a fake or a fake. So why are you whining now like a beaten dog?

    COVID-19 epidemic in Russia, exacerbating the already severe economic crisis

    Well, let's say the economic crisis is not created by a virus, but by our own authorities. Take Belarus and Sweden as an example. They also have a virus.
