How can we save Ukraine?

BeBro, how is all this playing in your country?

Just like South Ossetia and Abkhazia, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Belarus and Kirghizia have shown interest in either a union with or absorption into the Russian Federation, but that **** never got anywhere.

Our political elite was completely taken by surprise, and leaves a rather helpless impression (otoh one could hardly expect that they would be able to do much, like most others in the west). They probably don't know how to approach Russia now. The media seems to be critical to Georgia for starting this, but to Russia for exploiting this for own gains.

I think the strategic impact of it is something that needs a more clear debate here IMO, but in recent times our public was never much aware of such things. Maybe it changes now, dunno.

The more important question is, how did you like the video, nemets?

I thought it's great that this nonsense is gone.

Ah, you aren't an ostlander, ja?

[BeBMan]

I am, born in Erfurt. All the more reason to be glad.

How are the unemployment levels? Leveling off? I know BMW employs a good sum in its factories there.

The best way would be to split it along the Dnieper river. We get the eastern half, you get the western.
But seriously, the Ukraine isn't in any danger.

btw, ben, you're on my ignore list. I just got too exasperated dealing with your stupidity.

Let me get this straight.

You have your fingers jammed in your ear saying lalalala, I'm not listening.

And then you still bother to pull your finger out of your ear to insult me?

I don't know what's sadder, using an ignore list so you don't have to listen to people you disagree with, or wanting to have the last word with them anyways.

Go sit in your echo chamber Che. I'd rather hear your opinion because it's different then mine. Sure, I disagree with you, but that's not because you are stupid.

What I don't understand is why you can't extend the same respect to me.

That seems acceptable as long as the bits west are reabsorbed into Romania. (Not that there's any nationalist bias or anything here ).

edit: fixed smilies.

No! It's better to split Poland, rather than the Ukraine. The Germans can have the other half of Poland as a gesture.

As a Ukrainian myself, I choose only to state briefly, that Ukraine is a historical part of Russia, and is and shall be Russian territory, for the ages.

It depends on which bits of history you choose to ignore
