Ivan Barbashev, Pavel Buchnevich, Vladimir Tarasenko, Ryan O’Reilly, Brayden Schenn, and Jordan Kyrou shirt

Poroshenko, Ukrainian president that time, said “Our kids will go to school, their (Donbass) will have to hide in cellars”. You really should ask Putin, but luckily i have this Crystal Ball, and it says that in the Ivan Barbashev, Pavel Buchnevich, Vladimir Tarasenko, Ryan O’Reilly, Brayden Schenn, and Jordan Kyrou shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this next two weeks it doesn’t rain in Ukraine, so the fighting goes on. Firebombing Kyev and Lviv from the face of the planet would only take a few hours and could have been done by now, clearly the Russians have something else in mind. They have the big mass of the Ukranian Army surrounded on all sides near the Donbass, and they have air superiority, they could wipe them out if and when it pleases them. It won’t be fun in Ukraine in the next two weeks, but spring is coming and so is the rain. Big parts of Eastern Europe including Ukraine, Belarus and Russia will turn into mud, and the Russians want to conclude this war before mud does. He should be ashamed of his failure in diplomatic leadership in avoiding this crisis. He worshiped western nations and believed those western nations would come to his aid. He saw himself as already “in the club,” and so he never had to negotiate with Russia, he could be as belligerent as he wanted, massacring pro-Russian separatists by the thousands in Donbass, refusing to adhere to the Minsk agreement and continually breaking the ceasefire and shelling civilians in Donetsk and Luhansk. In his mind, he’s like Israel. He can commit all the war crimes he wants because he’s protected by the western superpowers. He doesn’t need to make deals with anyone or listen to anyone, he’s already “in the club” of western nations who will protect him.

Of course, he was never in the Ivan Barbashev, Pavel Buchnevich, Vladimir Tarasenko, Ryan O’Reilly, Brayden Schenn, and Jordan Kyrou shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this club. It was a huge miscalculation. He has lead his nation down a path of destruction. Ph.D. in International Relations & Political Science, St. Thomas University (New Brunswick) (Graduated 1998)52m Neither side is “justified”. However, if we look at the causes of the conflict, it is apparent that both sides – the Western world, led by the US – and Russia have contributed to creating the situation. Ukraine is the victim in this situation, though its desire to join NATO – while understandable- pushed the entire situation to the breaking point. Let’s deal with each of these issues in turn. When NATO began expanding in 1998, Russian leaders (before Putin, it must be noted) warned the US that this was an incredibly bad idea that would alienate Russia, threaten its security, and quite possible become the cause of a future nationalist and populist Russian leader. All Russian leaders, including Gorbachev, argued that the expansion of NATO broke the spirit, if not the letter, of the agreement Gorbachev had worked out with James Baker that NATO would not expand to the East. On the Western side, the argument is that this agreement was understood to only mean East Germany. However, the Russians don’t see it that way and there is some evidence to support their position that the understanding of the agreement was that NATO would not expand. When you take into account that NATO is an organization developed specifically to contain the Soviet Union and that the Russians felt this expansion occurred at a time when they were weak and their society and economy were crumbling, it is easy to understand the Russian sense that they were essentially abused. Their way of looking at it is that their enemies in the Cold War used the opportunity to “contain” and permanently weaken and surround Russia at a time when Russia could not be anything but a victim. This situation was compounded when NATO attacked Kosovo, despite this intervention being vetoed by Russia at the UN. Russia learned from this that the West could not be restrained by international institutions. After Kosovo, the UN voted to leave Kosovo as part of Serbia. However, Western actors conspired to break Kosovo away from Serbia. Again, the Russians learned that Western states simply did not obey the rules of the international system. In 2003, the US invaded Iraq, a completely illegal war that was condemned by most of the world. However, the US ignored this opposition and faced no consequences from the international community for its illegal actions. Again, all of this underlined the point that Western states talk about a “rules-governed international system” but are fast to break those rules when they want to do so. In 2008, the Ukraine and Georgia were essentially put on the waiting list to become members of NATO. Russia responded by invading Georgia. In 2011, NATO launched an attack on Libya. NATO had UN Security Council approval to do this, but Russia and China voted in favor of a very limited action. What they got, instead, was an overwhelming NATO intervention that deposed Gaddafi and led to the collapse of Libya, which remains a collapsed state today. In 2014, Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine and supported separatists in the Donbass region. This was after domestic conflict within Ukraine between pro-Russian and pro-Western forces. Ukraine really did split on this issue on geographical lines and the action that deposed pro-Russian president Yanukovych really was a coup that violated agreements Russia and the EU had agreed upon.
