What dreams may come. Gangway kresy

"The experience the son of errors difficult. "A. Pushkin"The border is an imaginary line between two nations, separating the imaginary rights of one from the imaginary rights of another". Ambrose birtv what is the strength of the diplomatic school? as you know, the creation of "From scratch" sensible cavalry takes about a hundred years. Something like we have with diplomacy. A powerful diplomatic service create generations.

At once it is impossible to establish. It seems, everything is simple: these countries are our friends, we're friends with them (smile, drink vodka, give preference); those countries are our enemies, we greet them, attacking them on foot; and at the country — strange neutrals that they spend too much time?it is actually far more complex and dangerous, and when we see, for example, mr. Lavrov, all lovey-dovey with mr. Kerry — there is nothing to be touched: it is a war.

However, in its diplomatic option. Diplomacy is not empty talk shop, diplomacy is a means of survival for any country. And if in military affairs there are periods of peace, the diplomats are deprived of such luxury. They are fighting constantly.

But the fight should be able to. However, it is not always and not all. In fact, diplomacy is a certain analogue of what is acceptable in everyday life called "Legal support". That is, your company only then so your, when, and how you'll be able to protect. The same largely concerns diplomatic relations.

To defend the state's interests in the international arena need to constantly, or you simply "Eat". Diplomacy — this is the area where every word you say can be used against you. And will be used against you if you blurted out something extra (remember khrushchev and the kuril islands). That is why the diplomat is a man who knows how to expressively silent in five languages.

And here came the era of "De-communisation" of Ukraine, and so fell to the ground the monuments to lenin. And here began to close the factories. I know all this, but there is another interesting facet of the "Decommunization" of foreign policy. Ukraine — the product of the soviet regime.

And its industry, and its infrastructure, and its border. The most insulting that the same border is also a product of the soviet regime. Then as if the ideology is suddenly confronted by political issues and even property. And ideology, of course, wins! and how could it be otherwise? the recognition of the soviet regime / stalin criminal, as well as recognition of the criminal of their acts was for Ukraine a lot of unexpected consequences.

As they say before making any statements consult with a lawyer. Your ill-considered phrase can be very costly. The approach of the new ukrainian vlada was very childish and very naive: there are bad, nasty and dishonest Russians; and there is the holy West, who loves all ukrainians and who can be trusted at the word. Therefore, the process of "Decommunisation" has gained incredible momentum in time to stop him in any way possible was not.

For the record — the Western border of Ukraine, Belarus and Lithuania — it is the consequences of the bloody act of the "Molotov-ribbentrop" and in general stalin's "Edge of creativity. " and here fellow ukrainians decided "To subvert". What a bold, and most importantly, honest people. Then we need to identify the following points: first, someone will scream — it was a long time ago! so international agreement is often a statute of limitations are not. And continue to remain in force until, until you signed a new contract.

Thus the rejection of the criminal stalinist heritage is very boleznenno for Ukraine. First of all, geographically. Are the lands that stalin took from romania, hungary and Poland are now included in the "Square". So one has ever twitched? so who would have "Twitched" in soviet times? where have you seen crazy? but the Soviet Union is no more.

That's what i can not understand schiry ukrainians that the Western border of Ukraine defended the soviet division, and not some abstract "International law". It still has to face. After 1991, the poles step by step began to remember the "Former glory" of the commonwealth. We somehow Poland is not perceived as the aggressor, is because the background of the Russian and german empires it looked frankly pale.

But Ukraine today is not the ussr and not even the ussr. Ukraine today — is something quite different. Country entirely different level and with very different geopolitical (or rather their absence). For this "Country" and the pole is terrible.

Moreover, this country recognized at the state level that its Western territory obtained illegally. Ukraine admitted it. Officially. Well, then someone scream, and that polish tanks are coming tomorrow to lviv? tomorrow will not come.

And the day after too. But it's a start. Made the first small step in this direction. And done voluntarily.

Absolutely. As said the unforgettable Mikhail gorbachev: "The process has begun!". And do not lie, wretch. Human life is measured in years, so many of the things he is not so relevant.

States tend to live longer, much longer. But today, history has accelerated and the current generation of ukrainians can see the results of the neWest foreign policy. The trouble ukrainians was the fact that there are very many things: industry, energy, defense industry was closely tied to russia. The gap with Russia meant their elimination.

Moreover, the ukrainian border was also very closely tied to russia. Almost all, oddly enough. And the designation of Russian as the main enemies also had a very serious geopolitical consequences. Yes, bad stalin took good Europe specific pieces of land and incorporated them into the ussr, and even the most severe accidents of the poles deported from its territory.

Actually it's quite a controversial historical moment and, oddly enough, a powerful "Spiritual scrapie" between ukrainians and Russians. In this issue, both of the people are interested to stick together (paradox, huh?). But the ukrainians had other ideas. Although just them these "Clamps" we need much more.

Ukraine is a piece of territory ri/ussr. And even ubeysya the wall. All the territorial squabbles with Europe, Ukraine inherited a gun. No, i said — tomorrow in lviv polish tanks won't come.

Well said. And hungarian forces in mukachevo can not wait. But it's still. In principle, if in Kiev were adequate policies, that they understand the "Features" state of the genesis "Land of great ukrov", with Moscow would try to be friends.

Simply for reasons of state security and territorial integrity. But where to take in in Kiev of an adequate policy?Ukraine is truly a paradoxical state, where everything, literally everything from nuclear energy to the defense and the state border, was firmly tied to russia. As a state ideology, ukrainians elected a russophobia. You say homo sapiens sapiens? maybe homo, but not the fact that sapiens.

I was in love/hate, and just as cold commercial calculation. The Western border of Ukraine — controversial (if they are not, of course, is the imperial army). Ukrainians for Europe — the same Russian, that is, second-class citizens and Europe in any territorial dispute will be together against Ukraine. A vivid example — gas field around the snake.

"Ukropolitiki" somehow figured out not very long-lasting consequences of a rupture with russia. Not very strong they are in geopolitical issues. Ukrainians cynically used the legacy of the Soviet Union, but categorically reject his principles and values. Unexpected consequence — those "Gangway kresy".

Mine showed up where it didn't. The trouble is that today "Nezalezhnoy" — a typical failed state. A state without a future and without resources. And Poland is just on the rise.

And with Russia of Ukraine's completely ruined. I would not say that the idea of returning lost Poland completely absurd. Moreover, even Russia today refers to it quite favorably. If you want us to speak, the us is weakening with each passing year more and more immersed in his own problems.

The ukrainian crisis once it has proven a revolution to make they are still able, but to establish peace in Ukraine has not. Give the ukrainians some ridiculous millions. America is not a cake, sadly. The situation with the crisis, the eu is well known, is also known for hard float between Warsaw and Berlin.

So the "Great and terrible West" is increasingly slipping into my own. Problems. On the background of the Donbass/crimea to Russia is just the theme shodni crecy care. Oddly enough — here in Moscow and Warsaw, a point of contact.

The idea of Poland to hog the whole of Ukraine (albeit as a satellite) unrealistic, but some territorial shifts can take place. Just because no one will seriously confront them. If someone does not understand, "The revolution of a gidnost" had one, not quite obvious result: Russia in the question "Chodnik crecy" changed my view 180 degrees. It was clearly stated that the problem of territorial integrity of Ukraine — it is a problem solely of Ukraine, but not russia.

And why do you think that this applies only to crimea?here many people underestimate the Putin-laurouskaya diplomacy. Allegedly too toothless. Not a fact. Just need to take a closer look to it, and much will become clear.

This statement about "Territorial integrity" (for someone who has a question) — terrible force. Future "Ukrainian" land of Russia beat Turkey, Poland and other different. I can be claims. Territorial.

In fact all of Ukraine is one big "Territorial claim". Until this murky territorial formation "Country Ukraine" Russia was, then all was quiet and noble. But times are changing. We have a large interesting piece of land in the heart of Europe with a very weak state authorities.

That is, as if all land on the planet has long been divided (not anymore!), and then suddenly Ukraine. Interesting! and the poles and hungarians, and romanians. Again: the Ukraine with Russian military backing and economic support is one thing. Ukraine itself by itself.
