1/ Russia does not comply with international agreements, it places its own security interests and geopolitical sphere of influence above international law.

Ik vind het beschamend, hoe weinig we doen voor een volk dat strijdt voor haar vrijheid, om bij de EU te mogen horen, net als Oekraïne.
Soms lijkt het wel of we niets anders te bieden hebben dan regeltjes, en mooie praatjes.Georgië, Oekraïne, ze weten dat Rusland ze slechts uitbuiting kan bieden..

'Georgië zijn we kwijt' klinkt het in de EU, maar Georgiërs houden hoop
Al een jaar lang demonstreren Georgiërs uit onvrede over de opschorting van de toetredingsgesprekken. EU-lidmaatschap lijkt echter verder weg dan ooit.

It has long been known that the Russians cannot be trusted, and that they have proven so extensively.
Unfortunately, neither can the Americans be trusted (anymore).
Why should Ukraine still have any trust l after living up to the Budapest Memorandum, after so many broken promises and agreements?

Americans keep pushing the so called "peace plan" by the Kremlin, leaving Ukraine vulnerable to future Russian aggression.
A cocktail of unwillingness, incompetence, and shameless lip service to the Kremlin, wanting one thing:
Control and subjugation of Ukraine and genocide on Ukrainian identity.
