Western expert: Europe must be ready to send peacekeeping contingents to the regions of the post-Soviet space

The other day, 10 months have passed since the beginning of the special operation of the RF Armed Forces in Ukraine, and when the Ukrainian conflict will end is a big question. The authors of the Moldovan news portal Știri.md are wondering if this is Russian President Vladimir Putin's war against the neo-Nazi Zelensky regime, or if this is a clash between Russia and NATO, which continues its expansion to the east, getting close to the Russian borders.

Thomas de Waal, of the Carnegie Endowment, gave his answer to Moldovan reporters:

Of course, this is Putin's war, since he does not want Ukraine to leave the sphere of influence of the Russian world, which so zealously seeks to become part of the EU and the North Atlantic alliance. I would even add that for him [Putin] it is historical mission, since, in fact, this is a war between the older and younger generations in Russia itself, the first of which do not want the youth to fall under the influence of Western civilization.

At the same time, the British expert gave an assessment of the Ukrainian crisis, noting that it had an impact on the region itself. In his opinion, all countries have allegedly undermined the trust in Moscow as a reliable partner - including Yerevan. Especially, according to the expert, whose words fit into the general paradigm of Western propaganda, this is noticeable in relation to Georgia and Moldova, against which Russia "uses energy resources as weapons and economic blackmail.

In the case of the Republic of Moldova, this is also interference in its internal affairs.

Does the West not interfere in the internal affairs of Moldova?.. And some representatives of the country's top leadership do not have passports of citizens of Romania?..

Under these conditions, I believe that the EU should radically change its strategy, which consists in the formation of the European Union as a guarantor of national security for these states. Europe must be prepared for various scenarios, ranging from military support to sending peacekeeping contingents or OSCE observers to maintain peace and stability in these regions (post-Soviet space)

Thomas de Waal emphasized.

In conclusion, the author of studies on the countries of the former USSR (Republic of Moldova, Ukraine, Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan) reflects on the fact that Chisinau has problems with integration into the EU due to the unresolved issue of the status of Transnistria.

Yes, in Russia, the top leadership of the country all have foreign passports, a law was passed on the impossibility of having dual citizenship, but every year its implementation is postponed, and those who do not have passports, Israel will accept those without passports without extradition, since they do not extradite Jews, so that they don’t do it, but here they speak for Moldova, tell us for ours ...

[Dost]

Did you personally see these passports or did your grandmother tell you? Right for everyone?

[28st region]

Have you seen the passports of our oligarchs? You have seen their houses, which are much larger than passports and you will not see them even in the real estate register.

Sorry, you don't know how to read, or you have an oligarch like this:

[Essex62]

So they are the oligarchs, the most important. But about passports, it’s doubtful. They don’t need them.

[1razvgod]

As expected .... Calculation and calculation again, the red lines are just zilch, the army is not ready, and what they are afraid of, all the more they will present as a humanitarian mission ... Kosovo is a good example ...

[bashkir]

Excellent analysis. About the red lines is generally excellent. Where is the information about the army? Apparently the comrades from Kyiv told?) But there is something to be afraid of. You, too. Kosovo is no example at all. Though. If you are a Kosovar, then think about it.

[GREG68]

Yeah...But the entire post-Soviet space is exclusively Russia's area of ​​responsibility. If we allow this, the geopolitical consequences will be very unpredictable and most likely not in our favor.

[sagitovich]

As we understood, unfortunately the greatest. In the event of the start of interventions from any of the former Soviet republics, help should not be expected even from the Old Man.
Although ..., Mongolia will again act as an ally of Russia, as in 1941.

) and how did you understand this?

[skeptic]

Don't bother. Russia cannot "tear the navel" in resolving the issue of Ukraine until the military-industrial complex is restored to conduct more serious military operations. What is at the forefront, only partially has a modern filling. This is dictated by "slow progress", as well as an eye on NATO's inadequate attacks. Taking into account the collapse of the machine tool industry, reaching the real rails will take most of 2023. God forbid this time to endure, and before that, there will be no radical change if NATO does not find some kind of dirty option for intensification.

[North Caucasus]

I doubt that

Taking into account the collapse of the machine tool industry, reaching the real rails will take most of 2023.

. Bearings are needed for machine tools, and other machines are needed for their production. Need gears. Machines are needed for their production, but they are not available either. CNC programs will still be written. Is there an element base? Not necessarily advanced. And what grades of steel can we cook? What about frames?

Yeah ... But all post-Soviet space, this is exclusively the area of ​​responsibility of Russia.

But this issue is now being decided in Ukraine, whose zone this is.

Quote: GREG68

That has already been allowed. Baltic States, Georgia, Moldova, Azerbaijan. This is hardly our area.

And take our closest ally - Kazakhstan, which adheres to Western sanctions! Whose ally is this really? I personally don't know.

[bashkir]

In our favor, do not think, friend, that we will lose. We are Russian) We never lose)

[dmi.pris1]

Never?

[alexoff]

With two hands for the dispatch of European peacekeepers - videos of cemeteries with flying German or French flags will enlighten the European layman. I wonder where the Germans will run if mobilization is announced? To Turkey?

The Poles have already fled to Europe, what if the Ukrainians run out.

Quote from alexoff

With two hands behind sending European peacekeepers

You don't have enough foreign mercenaries in Ukraine and you also want to fight with European peacekeepers? Dear, are you writing a trench not from the line?
If yes, on which side?

[Mikhail Maslov]

The West has lost all guidelines and Taiwan wants the republics of the former CIS wants and give them Mali and the Central African Republic. Only "peacekeepers" as they consider themselves can fall apart from a heavy burden.

[Murmur 55]

Well, yes, when Washington and its sixes squeeze the SCROTHS of various Ukraine, Georgia, Malaysia and others with sanctions, then the struggle for democracy and other "values", and when Russia does not want to pump gas and oil, it's easy for the rogue from the village of Khitropopovka, that is, the use of "weapons" is typical western laying and opinion is the same.

[faiver]

you’re lying, Thomas de Waal, this is not a war between generations, but a war between the pseudo-democratic West ruled by the Anglo-Saxons and Russia, and it has been going on in one form or another for five hundred years already ....

[alexoff]

In general, the struggle of generations sounds ridiculous - the Pepsi generation against the Navalny generation, somewhere between them is the generation of those who went to the polls in 1996 so as not to lose, because all sorts of musicians told them on TV

[carpenter]

Europe must also be ready to send peacekeeping contingents to the regions of the post-Soviet space

Whatever you call it, intervention or occupation, but in any case it is “.Drang nah Osten” and the seizure of the territory of the former USSR, but not a peacekeeping mission. Until now, the states have not withdrawn the "peace killers" from Syria, and what they did for 20 years in Afghanistan defies the mind. Libya, Iraq, Yugoslavia is understood.

"with all the abundance of suppliers of military equipment and weapons from all over the world, the leading, coordinating role of the UK is clearly visible. We see from the tracks that they pass through the very military bases that Boris Johnson advertised to the whole world."
"Let's supplement the obtained scheme with the supply tracks for the air forces of other NATO countries. It clearly shows the predominant share of Britain's participation in the total volume of military assistance provided by NATO countries."

Until this Thomas Vaal is kicked in the face, he will not change his position. For them, Ukraine was seen as a young representative of Western civilization. with the same crimes to destroy the people, having already connected the technical progress of the 21st century.

They want to occupy us all. to Vladivostok. Well, well done.

[Boycott]

What a blizzard this Thomas de Waal brings. Not a word of truth, everything is turned upside down again. And so they powder the brains of the layman, who was brought up on advertising, who does not use brains. It was disgusting to read, chesslovo.

[didra]

The emphasis on the conflict of generations is interesting. In principle, there is sound grain in this thought. For generations born and brought up in the late Soviet and especially post-Soviet times, the value of such concepts as the motherland, people, kindness, etc. is really declining. The philosophy of this generation can be called "everyday Nietzscheanism." The current "young tribe" has gone even further in cosmopolitanism, plus telephone autism has been added.

It's funny that Navalny focuses on teenagers as a target audience. And we can assume that it is the British who supervise Alyosha. Here, the newcomer, and the timely landing, and the contacts of Navalny's assistants with British "diplomats" - everything hints at a possible employer.

[former soldier]

this is a war between the older and younger generations in Russia itself, the former of which do not want the youth to fall under the influence of Western civilization.

Is it civilization? Big question.

[Vladimir61]

The guy will not calm down, because in 2006 he was denied a Russian visa. An ardent Russophobe, he was noted for his reporting on the side of the Chechen separatists.

Enough. 3rd and 4th Romanian armies in the battle of Stalingrad. Frozen in the snow
and rolled on the roads with caterpillars of T-34 tanks.

[Keer]

ending with the dispatch of peacekeeping contingents or OSCE observers to maintain peace and stability in these regions

Exactly what was to be expected. The absence of a clear signal from the authorities of the Russian Federation, namely, strikes by all available means of destruction on the logistics of Ukraine, at the first
on the other hand, hints at the supply of weapons from the West, gave an understanding to the partners that the grandmaster "points out", and the "red lines" are bullshit for Solovyovism. And thus, NATO contingents will visit Ukraine. After that, the impact on the deep rear will become impossible. In the sense that an order of magnitude more ssykotnym. And impossible. After that... Well, you understand. "Capercaillie on spectacles" saved the West from fears of a possible escalation from Russia as a reaction to their actions.

[Stas157]

Quote: Keer

Exactly what was to be expected.

Well, Strelkov warned about this that if the conflict drags on, this will happen sooner or later.

But all this - Western supplies, the mobilization of 404, the war with all of NATO ... could have been avoided. If you do not delay, but immediately begin to fight at full strength and cut off along the Odessa-Belarus line. Well, since it was inevitable, it would be possible to prepare!

[Keer]

Strelkov often expounds good thoughts. And, with all due respect to him, those who, for their formation, do not require any superhuman knowledge and understanding. Another thing is funny, those who are trying to oppose him are slipping into petty showdowns with him personally, because in fact they cannot object to anything. The fact is that propagandists, due to their poor thinking, think that if Girkin is "blocked", then no one else will draw such conclusions. Because they, propagandists, are accustomed to living in someone else's mind, and do not understand that you can live your own.

[Keer]

From here, the stupid confidence that the rights of the country's interests and plunder can be covered up by the "correct" evening ringing of bells - nightingale trills on TV, if you grunt alternative estimates and "squeeze" information taps.

I then voted for Lebed. In the first round of elections he was third , but he was also bought .
And then they threw it.

[VSZMK]

And in the second Zyuganov won, but he was also thrown.

[Essex62]

All these choices, no choice, about nothing. Everything was decided by the forcible seizure of power in 93 and a further circus with democracy and the "universal approval" of the masses of this power of hucksters-zahrebetnikov. Like, the people themselves chose the path of capitalism. Zyu was just scared, they would have smeared it and not noticed.

[Zenn]

Everything is as usual for British scientists and experts, when they realized that they needed to collect belongings for their military personnel from the zone of Russian interests, they decided to start with lies and bluff.
The statement is loud, but only their MO is going to reduce the army by 20 troops in the near future. And who will they send on the expedition?

[APASUS]

Thomas de Waal is an ordinary western mongrel that barks. Europe must be ready to send peacekeepers to the regions WHERE ITSELF TAKE PART in the conflict, even if not directly, but indirectly.
It's like the Ukrainian military will run to the "peacekeepers" and ask for spare parts for Leopard 2 and help with repairs

[Zaurbek]

Europe must be prepared for various scenarios, ranging from military support to sending peacekeeping contingents or OSCE observers to maintain peace and stability in these regions (post-Soviet space)


After the war on the side of 404 and sanctions against the Russian Federation, it would be interesting to look at the military contingent introduced, no matter where.

[Guran33 Sergey]

start to scare? Oh well! apparently the example of Kazakhstan did not teach anything!
