What Ukraine’s Western “friends” have done to the country is nothing short of unconscionable.
Step by step, they pushed it ever closer to the abyss.
First, by forcing the country to make a fateful civilisational choice between the West and Russia — a geopolitical ultimatum that culminated in the 2014 coup, splitting the nation in two and igniting a bloody civil war.
Then, by pressuring the Western-installed proxy government to reject any diplomatic settlement, however reasonable.
Next, by arming and de facto integrating Ukraine into NATO’s military structures, thereby setting the country on the inevitable path of war with Russia — suggesting that this was the desired outcome in some Western circles.
Then, after Russia’s invasion, by sabotaging every opportunity for peace — including the promising talks of early 2022 — and continuing to do so in the years that followed, despite the glaring reality that Ukraine could never recover its lost territories.
And all this in the cynical hope of using Ukraine as a pawn to weaken and “bleed” Russia — at the cost of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian lives.
Though we can only hope a political settlement is reached as soon as possible, what the West — and primarily the US — has done to Ukraine will remain a tragedy of historic proportions...
