(GPA) — Earlier this week notorious war hawk US Senator John McCain (R-Az) was diagnosed with brain cancer. While the liberal and conservative establishments are sending their regards, Geopolitics Alert instead compiled a list of reasons why we don’t care about McCain.
The contrasting American statements and approaches to the Syrian conflict vis-a-vis the Kiev-Donbass conflict are illustrative of the fact that the United States will say and more important do anything to either keep or try to get a friendly ruling faction in power.
Predictable condemnation of the declaration of the state of Malorossiya has come from EU states, the Kiev regime and even Russian officials. But on closer inspection, Malorossiya could be a win-win situation for Europe, Russia, the United States and for the people of Malorossiya.
Here’s why.
1. Malorossiya to remain sovereign from the Russian Federation
The EU was supposed to be the last minute saviour of Ukraine as fascist street-fighters and foreign mercenaries with fresh injections of American money readied a violent coup.
Nikolai Azarov who served as Prime Minister of Ukraine under the last legitimate Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych between 2010 and 2014 has said that he predicts that the ruling Poroshenko regime is about to fall.
The regime in Kiev came to power illegally and governs in a manner that is totally unacceptable.The regime is guilty of mass murder, mass starvation and deprivation and multiple human rights violations.
If there was ever a regime in need of change, this is the one.
Here are the options.
1. The Security Council of the United Nations
The Russian Federation could and should table a UNSC resolution calling for the immediate withdraw of all troops, mercenaries and terrorists loyal to the Kiev regime from the Donbass region.
A car bomb has exploded in Kiev, killing Maksim Shapoval of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry. Another individual in the car is reportedly injured.
The attack which happened in broad daylight on a busy street was certainly meant to capture public attention and insofar as it has, some goal has been achieved.
Those responsible for the incident were almost certainly far-right elements within Ukraine’s radical, fascist, neo-Nazi political community who have grown angry with the current regime for a number of reasons.
The far-right Fatherland party led by former Ukrainian Prime Minister and arch-opportunist Yulia Tymoshenko has moved to impeach the current Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko.
For anyone thinking that this represents a rejection of Poroshenko’s war of aggression on Donbass and his wider persecution of the large number of ethno-linguistic and cultural Russians living under the Ukrainian regime, this would be wishful thinking.
While many were wondering if somehow the beleaguered, bumbling war criminal leader of the Ukrainian regime Petro Poroshenko could some how convince Donald Trump to change his generally positive views about Russia, the truth is that the meeting could have been described as ‘useless’ before it even happened.
The truth of the matter is that Trump’s Russia policies will not be defined by ideology, it won’t be defined by the Russophobia of the fledgling regime in Kiev and it may not even be defined by Donald Trump’s own views.
(ZHE) — Shortly after midnight local time on Thursday, an unknown attacker threw a device in the U.S. embassy compound in Ukraine’s capital Kiev which exploded. Nobody was injured, according to Reuters. Authorities have called the incident a terrorist act.
