Recognition of the LDNR will show what the West is ready to go to in aggression against Russia
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.[REGNUM] If the country's leadership seriously intends to protect the borders of Russia in the Ukrainian direction, and the fate of the Russians in the Donbass is really important for it, then the Republic of Donbass must be recognized, Mikhail Demurin , an observer for IA REGNUM, noted on Tuesday, January 25, commenting on the statement of the Office of the Prime Minister of Great Britain following the negotiations Boris Johnson with the leaders of several EU and NATO countries.  As previously reported, the statement said: the negotiators agreed that in the event of an 'invasion of Ukraine,' an 'unprecedented package of sanctions' should be introduced against Russia . "The international community should not tolerate any actions that would undermine Ukrainian sovereignty," the document also notes. "In the message following the online meeting of Prime Minister Boris Johnson with the leaders of the leading NATO countries and Poland, I would highlight the thesis that "the international community should not tolerate any actions that would undermine Ukrainian sovereignty." In other words, they are worried about the possibility of our country recognizing the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Republics, and they are seriously worried about it. Turning a blind eye to reality, they continue to believe that Kiev's power extends to the areas of Donbass that have been liberated from it, and are ready to support him in carrying out a punitive operation in this area, threatening genocide of our compatriots. We must act on the basis of the principle of the right of peoples to self-determination, to self-defense from totalitarianism and chauvinism, from destruction, to receive external support in this matter." "I hope that the leadership of our country seriously intends to protect the borders of Russia in the Ukrainian direction, and the fate of the Russians in the Donbass is really important to them. Then these republics should be recognized. This will be a test of the real readiness of Western countries to impose "unprecedented sanctions" against Russia. Recognition is not military action, but the United States and its allies will have to respond to this. According to the degree of this reaction, we will understand what the West means by sharpening the Ukrainian topic so much," said Mikhail Demurin. Posted by: badanov 2022-01-28 |
