Is Russia really looking to invade Ukraine? An expert explains.
And some of the intention of Biden considering sending troops to the Baltics is basically to say,"Look, if Russia withdraws its troops from the Ukrainian border and ends its threat of invasion, we pull back from new deployments in Eastern Europe." So that's another thing, which gives the appearance of a decent compromise.
process [the unimplemented cease-fire agreement regarding the separatist areas of Ukraine] forward on autonomy for the Donbass region, because that remains official U.S. policy. And it's also the only possible way of actually bringing a peace settlement to that region.Russia doesn't want Ukraine in NATO for exactly the same reason that America would not want Mexico in alliances with China, right? There's nothing mysterious about that.
There is an additional twist, of course, in the case of Ukraine, which is that Ukraine contains this huge Russian minority. Twenty percent of the population say they're ethnic Russians; a third speak Russian as their first language; there are very old and deep historical and cultural connections, which Russia is very anxious to preserve. So that adds to the importance of Ukraine for Russia.
And it's not even, I think, fundamentally about ideology. You know, I mean, once again, much like the Monroe Doctrine, you've had Republican administrations and Democratic administrations throughout American history insisting on the exclusion of hostile military alliances from Central America.
