Dear friends and guarantors of our sovereignty!
It has been three months since the confrontation of the President Viktor Yanukovych with the people of Ukraine began. A protest against his decision to abandon a far-reaching European Union partnership deal in November 2013 morphed into a huge - and violent - campaign to push him from power. During this confrontation Russian officials made numerous public statements that President Yanukovych must use brutal force against protesters on Euromaidan in Kiev. On 19-20 February more than 100 unarmed protesters were murdered by snipers in Kiev.
After that bloody action take place in Kiev, the regime of Viktor Yanukovych was overthrown by Ukranian Parliament, and he fled to Russian Federation and asked for military intervention to restore his power. Russian President Vladimir Putin used this situation and ordered FSB (former KGB) agents and special forces to take control over Parliament on the Ukranian Crimean Peninsula. After this operation succeed, FSB agent and local criminal leader, Sergei Aksyonov proclaimed himself Head of the Council of Ministers of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. Criminal leader Aksyonov is a leader of a political party, which won only 4% of votes at the elections to the Supreme Council of Crimea and holds only three seats in the local parliament.
Sergei Aksyonov on March 1 has asked the President of Russian Federation Vladimir Putin to provide support to ensure peace in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea. The Kremlin quickly issued a statement saying that Mr. Aksyonovs plea would not be ignored, and within hours the upper chamber of Russias Parliament had authorized military action.
This led to Russian military intervention to Crimea with thousands of troops, dozens of war helicopters and armored units. They marched from the territory Russian Federation to the Crimea. Russian troops stripped of identifying insignia but using military vehicles bearing the license plates of Russias Black Sea force swarmed the major thoroughfares of Crimea, encircled government buildings, closed the main airport and seized communication hubs. The Russian occupants use tactic of complete blockade of Ukrainian military units. They do not allow an occasional delivery of medicines and food to our guys, and now they decided to recreate the Leningrad blockade. Once again, worthy students of Adolf Hitler. The situation is especially dire with the Headquarters of the Ukrainian Navy in Crimea unlike in military units, no supplies are stored there.
After the beginning of military aggression Russian propaganda claims that Ukraines opposition leaders relied on allies in the radical camp such as fascist groups like Svoboda, Trizub, and the Right Sector which espouse ethnic hatred against Jews and Russians. But this is a total lie, because none of this nationalistic organization promote neo-Nazi ideals or ethnic hatred and no evidence were given for such facts. Instead all religious communities Ukraine make public statements against such Russian propaganda.
Claims by Moscow that the forces in Crimea are local "self-defense" forces is a defense against neo-Nazi groups paid and manipulated by the West have been challenged implicitly or directly, both by the West and Ukraine. In a statement Monday, the G-7 condemned Russia's actions in Crimea as "a clear violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine." The U.S. has called them an "incredible act of aggression."
President Vladimir Putin on his press conference on March 4 claimed that Russian forces may go further into other parts of Ukraine. Such decision will result in a full scale war. This war may lead to thousands of deaths for both sides, disintegration of our country and annexation by Russian Federation East and South regions. The result of such conflict also will be terrorist enclave in the center of Europe, because Ukranian people do not stop to fight with Russian occupants after formal military defeat.
Long-awaited consultations of the "guarantors" of Ukraine's independence in Paris on March 5 have fully failed. Only primitive political and security fantasy can suggest that a decision about sending observers to Crimea constitutes sufficient "guarantees". Sad ironic smile is the only sentiment this decision can provoke. Ukraine continues to be left without support by its "guarantors" and EU. Of course Aksyonov separatists and Russian servicemen have been preventing OECD and UN mission to Crimea to perform their duties.
When the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, the newly independent Ukraine had on its territory what was the third largest strategic nuclear weapons arsenal in the world. It was larger than those of Britain, France, and China combined. When Ukraine renounced its nuclear weapons in 1994, Russia, the United States and Britain signed the Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances guaranteeing the countrys territorial integrity. According to the memorandum, Russia, the U.S., and the UK confirmed, in recognition of Ukraine becoming party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and in effect abandoning its nuclear arsenal to Russia, that they would:
- Respect Ukrainian independence and sovereignty within its existing borders.
- Refrain from the threat or use of force against Ukraine.
- Refrain from using economic pressure on Ukraine in order to influence its politics.
As a result Ukraine gave up the world's third largest nuclear weapons stockpile between 1994 and 1996 (nearly 1900 nuclear warheads).
But now, then our country face Russian military intervention and the direct risk of annexation by Russia our South and East regions (40% territory of our country) guarantors totally betray Ukranian people and give us no real help in such hard situation. All the public statements made by U.S. and UK government representatives are laughable and ineffective, such statements show aggressor that he can proceed.
Such unprecedented military and diplomatic betrayal of our country by U.S. and UK government is a direct signal to Iran, Israel, North Korea, India, Japan, Brazil and other countries that international law is not working anymore and so-called guarantees is just a diplomatic trick, no one can be safe without its own nuclear weapons arsenal or at least chemical and bacteriological weapons.
Moreover despite the claims that U.S. and EU will use sanctions against aggressor the Italians and the French do not want to punish Putin. The British government is worried about the impact on the City of London and losing the capital's big-spending oligarchs. German industry is lobbying strongly against imposing sanctions on Russia. And while Washington talks of isolating Russia because of Ukraine, Berlin is saying the opposite, stressing engagement and keeping channels open to the Kremlin. So all Western friends alongside guarantors betray us in this hard times.
So now Ukraine nation demand that U.S. and UK government as our guarantors in signed Budapest memorandum, make public statement that they will use military force in order to defend our territorial integrity and sovereignty. NATO forces in European Union have much larger military forces than Russian Federation.
The United States. and the European Union can also use at least economic sanctions to the Russian Federation that are needed to de-escalate the conflict in Ukraine:
- denial of visas for Russians traveling to Europe and North America;
- freezing of bank accounts of Russian state-owned corporations;
- stop the construction of the South Stream;
- use 15 billon euros fine (10 percent of annual revenues) against Gazprom for breaching EU antitrust legislation, European Union's antitrust investigation shows that Gazprom abused its position as the dominant supplier in eight central and eastern European nations, restricting the free flow of gas and unfairly pegging gas prices to oil prices in long-term contracts), although antitrust investigation is finished but corrupted European politics put 15 billion sanctions on halt;
- expel Russian Federation as military aggressor from OECD organization, European parliament and G8 with returning to G7 format;
- put a proposition to the assembly of United Nation to expel Russian Federation as military aggressor;
- freezing negotiations on establishing a free trade zone with Russia.
Therefore, if signature of the Association Agreement with the EU is delayed, if Ukraine does not get the NATO Membership Action Plan (I hope that Ukraine's current leadership applies for it quickly), if Russia does not face strong measures, whose impact it can really feel (declarations and diplomatic demarches have no effect on it), Ukraine's only way will consist in taking concrete steps to renew its territorial integrity and ensure its security.
If the United States, the United Kingdom and the European union officials act like Budapest treaty breakers and traitors, Ukraine has to act in a different way. Our country will take steps towards Ukraine's withdrawal from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and to launch steps leading to creation of these weapons. We have all the possibilities to do this and in a short time we will show to the world our nuclear weapons.
But these steps for our nation will not be enough. We have to urgently return to an issue of short or medium-range missiles for our nuclear warheads, which will have sufficient radius to make sure that our aggressing "guarantor" understands what is at stake. Similarly to the nuclear weapons, we can get these arms quickly.
And we address our request to all those in U.S., UK, EU and UN who is "deploring" and verbally "condemning" Russian aggressor: do not tell than that you have not heard anything and did not know anything, your diplomatic tricks now open the Pandora box - the risk of mass creation of nuclear weapons and other weapons of mass destruction in the world. You, the so-called "guarantors" and verbal defenders will be responsible for this and millions of deaths in the near future.
