Russia will have to withdraw from Ukraine, because there are ways to bring that day closer.
This opinion was expressed by US Ambassador to Ukraine in 2003-2006, head of the Eurasian center. Dean Patrice at the Atlantic Council John Herbst.
According to him, if the US gives Ukraine lethal weapons, it will not provoke Russia into military escalation in the Donbas.
Because the Kremlin has a big problem: Russian people do not want their soldiers fighting in Ukraine. Therefore, Putin has to hide the fact that Russia’s official military personnel not “on vacation”, but really fight,– said the diplomat.
John Herbst noted that the war in Donbas for Russia is a disaster because it hinders economic development and the development of relations with Western countries.
“Ever the Kremlin will see it and realize that we need to change this aggressive policy. In my opinion, that day can come faster, if Ukraine will receive from us (“24″) protective weapons. Maybe that day will come sooner if sanctions are expanded. And, in the end, I think the Kremlin will have to get out of Ukraine”, – said the former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine.
He added that the West can create such conditions under which Russia will be forced to leave the Donbass. Moreover, the position of Moscow becomes weaker. Therefore, to change his course in Ukraine in the interests of Russia.
We can discuss the modalities of how there will be politics, the status of the Russian language in society. We can refer to the problems referred to by Russia to justify its aggression against Ukraine,– said the diplomat.
