The present situation on the international arena can't compare with the era of the cold war, Russia seeks not only to violate their national desires, while the U.S. it's time to forget the times of a unipolar world and to learn to negotiate with Moscow, said the Professor of history of international relations, Catholic University of Milan Massimo De Leonardis in an interview to the newspaper
according to the comments of Professor, modern Russia has become stronger and should be the public interest, while not seeking to impose on other countries " ideal model " like communism.
" Americans must behave with Russia is not the case, as with the Soviet Union in the past. It is pointless to help the escalation of tensions between the West and the capital of Russia, " says the historian.
The US not forget that the era of the unipolar world is long past, believes Leonardis.
for reviews of Italian professors, as in the past, the West, and the U.S., will spur protests and riots in other countries, little caring about the consequences and later leaving people in the lurch, it happened in Hungary in 1956, and is happening in Ukraine in 2014)
in respect of the situation in Ukraine, Massimo De Leonardis agree with former U.S. Secretary of state Henry Kissinger and believes that For the good of the country it would be wiser to maintain neutrality, not adjacent to any Alliance. Ukraine, in the opinion of the historian should be a Federal country, maintaining the unity of the Western and Eastern regions. For international equilibrium, says Leonardis, Ukraine should become a buffer zone on the example of Belgium and Switzerland.
