It’s the Lawbreakers and Criminals Russians Have Rebelled Against

According to commentators, the situation surrounding Novorossiya is worsening once again.The ceasefire is not being observed, the resolution on the creation of a demilitarized zone was never implemented, and full-scale fighting could resume at any moment. Against this background, Western countries are preparing to discuss yet another round of sanctions against Russia.

We Are Helping Fellow Russians and Conducting Ourselves Impeccably

In the West, the problems of Washington’s Kiev puppets will be declared to be a result of Russian intrigue. No one likes to admit one’s mistakes. In this case, there were almost no mistakes but rather mostly crime. As is often the case with petty criminals, they commit new crimes in order to cover up their previous ones. One can look up the details of this process in detective novels. For all of their authors’ imagination, they are nevertheless based in reality.

I note some especially ridiculous Western demands. For example, consider the statement that the conflict in the Donbas continues due to the fact that Moscow isn’t withdrawing its troops. No one explains where we should withdraw them to if a major unit of vitally important resources is stationed in the Western part of our country.

It’s also amusing that the Russian Federation is being accused of what its accusers themselves do constantly. They invade the territory of whatever country they like and are constantly replenishing the supplies of various insurgents. The Americans support outlaws from the so-called Islamic State who have no relationship whatsoever with the United States.

These are mercenaries of the darkest type with overtly criminal behavior, and yet they blame Moscow for helping fellow Russians and for conducting itself impeccably. It’s the lawbreakers and criminals Russians have rebelled against. What do we end up with? According to American reasoning, one is allowed to support criminals, but suppressing crime is forbidden.

There Isn’t the Slightest Chance of Negotiating with the Criminals

As far as the possibility of yet another clash in Novorossiya is concerned, its outcome will look familiar. First of all, one of the former Soviet Union’s largest ammunition industries is located in the Donbas for technical and historical reasons.

The capacity of those factories to manufacture explosives, ammunition and missiles is entirely sufficient to supply the entire barrage of fire on Kiev’s punitive operation squads that we observed from August to September. I think the Donbas militias have tried to improve the operation of these factories even further.

Second, the shelling by Kiev’s punitive operation squads—not so much of potential defense sites but of residential homes and civilian support facilities—has shown the militias that there isn’t the slightest chance of negotiating with the criminals. The only way to talk with them is with the language of weapons. The more the citizens of the Donbas participate in the militia, the less chance they have of dying from the punitive operation squads’ fire. I think yet another round of hostilities would end even more quickly and not in Ukraine’s favor.

I don’t presume to know how many more of such rounds it will take, but I believe the result of the recent congressional elections in America will make the administration there reconsider its foreign policy. So I’m hoping for a relatively peaceful outcome with respect to further developments. When Ukrainians are killed yet again, the West is not going to side with them as brazenly as it has until now.
