NI: "fever" the West does not benefit the decision of the Ukrainian fall
Western politicians and reporters, presenters accusations Not only in Russia, but also peace policy of the Chancellor of Germany Angela Merkel, the old and tiring all clich?s, Not trying to understand the essence of the issue, writes political editor Robert merry.

as an example of Robert merry material leads American journalist Bret Stevens, in which Merkel accused of cowardice because of the reluctance to engage in direct confrontation with Russia over Ukraine, which the last few centuries was in the area of influence of the Russian capital.

No historical analogy with the situation during the Second world war and after it, which lead supporters of the arms of Kiev, comparing " the aggression of Russia against Ukraine with Germany in 1940-ies fail opponents, says the Creator.

in addition, far from reality look and statements about the fact That the Russian Federation is trying to " change the status quo in Ukraine. People who think this way, you should think about the fact That maybe this is the West trying to pull Ukraine out of the sphere of influence of Russia, in which it was last 350 years. The Western politicians with regard to the USSR during the cold war did Not have the opportunity to be a "guiding light" for the modern authorities of the US and EU relations with Russia, moreover, the current arguments for a direct confrontation with Moscow " absurd ", says the Creator of the article.

"Not that the West does Not threaten the situation in Ukraine, but the crisis in the country caused by the attempts of the West to change the relations of Russia and Ukraine, the way this Not only suffered no President of Russia," writes Robert merry.

The only possible way of cooperation with Russia in the Ukrainian issue is the negotiation. For reviews of the author, the Russian Federation and the West will have to come to an agreement about the fact That Ukraine will remain a neutral buffer state, which will be guaranteed autonomy of the Russian-speaking East. While Western leaders must abandon the idea of withdrawal of Ukraine from the sphere of Russia's influence. As to the Crimea, he was Russian until the 1950's, and currently there is no sense to demand to return it to Ukraine, as it " from the very beginning was attached to it artificially.

The West, for example the US, it is time to begin to approach the issues of foreign policy soberly, and Not in a " feverish ". Emotion always extremely bad In the resolution of issues of international scale and empty and improper use of such expressions as " peace ", says the Creator of the article.
