Huff!!! That's Ukraine. Putin's Passion.
So...How did Putin play the game?
Started with Putin fuelling civil protests in regions of Donetsk People's Republic (DPR) & Luhansk People's Republic (LPR) in 2013.
Huge demand flared up in those regions,especially in Donbas, to join Russia by breaking away from Ukraine.
Ukrainian Govt made biggest mistake of using force against Peaceful Protestors &....that's what Putin Wanted. Criticising the "Suppression of Citizens Freedom" he struck unexpectedly...Crimea.
Putin got Crimea annexed to Russia on 20 Feb 14,leaving Ukraine,US, EU in shock.
Let's come back to Ukraine.
US, NATO, EU staged strong protests against annexure of Crimea. Sanctions were imposed on Russia. Putin didn't budge. Instead..his agencies intensified civil protests in DPR & LPR.
Finally....Ukraine had to come down to table for negotiations.
After extensive talks in Minsk (Belarus),an agreement to end war in Donbas was signed by representatives of Trilateral Contact Group (Russia, Ukraine & EU's OSCE) &...without recognition of any status,by heads of DPR & LPR.
Mediation done by Germany & France.
Read deep.
Putin "GOT" DPR & LPR as signatories to Minsk Agreement IN SPITE of they being in Ukraine....thereby making Ukraine & EU agree those to be disputed areas i.e."Not Integrated" parts of Ukraine.
THIS is CRUX of Ukraine Conflict. Target was ALWAYS Germany. Ukraine was just a tool..
In short....Without firing a single shot, Putin exposed impotence & lack of decision making of US & NATO.
There is one more casuality during this game. Turkey President Erdogan who went against NATO & sided with Russia. Today he has lost trust of US & other NATO allies.
It's going to cost Turkey heavy in Syria & in next FATF meeting.
Mind you...Turkey is already put in Grey List by FATF. That means Turkey on the out way of NATO.
China?? Putin does not care for China and even more so once he gets hold on Developed Ukraine?
Read the Full Details of Ukrainian Economy in initial part of this thread.
So....Has Ukraine survived?
NO, Ukraine HAS TO FALL....but through Civil War from within. Now watch out for massive protests in DPR & LPR in coming days.
BATTLEs are won with tanks & fire.
WARs are won by bringing enemy to knees without firing bullet.
"If Goal can be achieved by non-military methods, even by methods of intrigue, duplicity & fraud, I will go for it. I won't advocate an armed conflict"- Acharya Chanakya.
What about Bharat?
Whose side will Bharat choose? US or Russia?
No-One.
Why would we choose any side?
They Both need Bharat. We are at Center & Central Pole doesn't shift.
Bharat is rightly building another axis with Israel, UAE,Saudi & Greece.
