Ukraine – a Modest Roadmap

• https://www.lewrockwell.com, By Karen Kwiatkowski

Supposedly the Italians offered a plan, but it's gone nowhere.  The Ukrainian negotiators in Turkey had something on paper, but that ended abruptly.

There is a way to stop the war, and gain a better, more compact, more independent, more prosperous and more Swiss-like Ukraine, surrounded by better neighbors too.  Far from the front lines of battle, Zelensky and Biden, and the neocons and MICIMATT grifters who support them, stand in the way. They believe dead Ukrainians can help project US power – what's left of it – eastward.

The desired end-state should be an improvement over the previous status quo. This means a Ukraine that is well-led, has free speech and rule of law, and not permeated with political and financial corruption.

The eastern Republics recognized by Russia a day before the invasion, those heavily Russian populated territories that were promised autonomy under Minsk II but instead faced Ukrainian army attacks and civil rights abuses, have now been absorbed by Russia administratively.  Before and during the invasion, many of these Russian-speaking Ukrainians were transported into Russia on buses, and will return home sooner and in better shape than those in Poland and the rest of Europe.

The desired end-state should return autonomy and self-rule to these republics, whether under the umbrella of the Russian Federation or not.

A better smaller and more "Ukrainian" Ukraine, who are neighbors to some version of a Novorossya already exists on the ground.  How will these entities relate to each other?

The desired end-state is that these two, or more, entities relate to each other peacefully and profitably, much as so many other European states do.
