ReplyArguments coming from some quarters, like Oliver Stone and John Mearsheimer, suggest that everything unfolding is due to America’s impertinent actions in Europe over the decades that exerted pressure at Russia’s borders; trying to “spread democracy” where Russia doesn’t want it. (Maybe my own simplistic breakdown of the argument, but, in any case, “it’s America’s fault”). Well, the thing is, Ukraine has been trying carve its own direction, and Finland has been trying to carve its own direction. We’re not forcing democracy on them. They’re making that decision. It’s not like we’re supporting dictators there for corporate interests, like the shit we pulled in Chile during the 1970s. Russia is the dictator here, interested mainly in reinforcing its goddamn oligarchy. That’s why Putin interefered and disrupted western democracies over the decades. Ostensibly to protect Russia’s borders. (I guess that’s why he invaded Georgia in 2008, too). Whatever mistakes our own country has made over the decades – and it’s never news when we DO make them – there isn’t a helluva lot of sympathy to be found for a fascist like Putin whose mind still works from its KGB roots. The bigger concern, imo, should be corporations and oligarchs in the west aligning themselves with the Russian oligarchs as they had in past decades – which ushered in the Trump era for us in 2016. I only wish we’d go after American oligarchs the way we are with Russia’s. That’s OUR immediate threat, yet.
ReplyAs Russia is claiming we are not even a real country, her quoting Taras Shevchenko was very touching for me as a Ukrainian. On March 9 it was Shevchenko’s birthday. His poetry resonates today more than ever.
