Hi Rolo, last year even I, myself, WANTED to believe that Medvechuk would bring some pro Russian solace even though 25 years ago when he was the head of the President Kuchma administration, his younger brother, being the head of Tax Administration of Lvov oblast, racketeered my small joint venture company and the situation went up to the point that I, as Western “investor” who dared to say “no”, got death treats and thus had to leave the country, etc etc; I could write a book about that experience…anyway there is only one conclusion: these kind of “people” are the worst but very dangerous scumbags, you may just as well call them “zaraza”; the problem being today is that “they” are genociding all Slavs (East, West, Ukrainians, Russians) and the awake see it but there is not much we can do at this particular time - it is already a feat that we, the awake, are on the same wave lenght… keep up your excellent work!
Rolo, have you noticed that the quality of your articles is directly proportional to the number of times you mentioned the name of that 5th-column liberal globalist Schwab/Kissinger recruit from the 90s and the main traitor of Russia? His name begins with "P" and ends with "utin".
I'd call this Russia-Article-Quality principle - RAQ principle for short - as Strelkovpedia will have it later on. ;-)
He expresses himself in such a clear and laid back manner, that even I got the gist of his theme.
Few days back I have started to re-read(listen to) an old classic - "New lies for old" by Golistyn.
I think I am hearing overtones from that muzak all over here - especially if ya consider the geopolitik of our days. Now, I don`t wanna rain on Your parade Mr R., but - do we agree that 404, not to mention Novorossiya is really just a side-show? One that turns me inside out - yet - just a sideshow. Regardless of appearances...An opening act if You will.
I have this feeling, that b4 it is settled, we`ll find a few more tunnels in this rabbit-hole...
Rolo said "What can any of us do?" What we can do is become trans-nationalist such as the Russian Old Believers. Even if all the non-Russian got kicked out of Russia, Russians would still disappear due to birth rate. Except for the Old Believers. Demographic trends say that the majority of Belize will be German Mennonites. The people that follow this blog have the ability to set up a tran-national group, but not takeover any government. This blog is arguably a tiny trans-national group with some success.
The only whites that are doing well are transnational groups such as Fundamentalist Mormons and Irish Tinkers.
"Feel free to try to worm your way out of this in the comments section below though."
What a stupidly arrogant thing to say.
One consideration floating around ca 2014 was that NATO could not legally accept a country which was engaged in an ongoing civil war, so the accession of Donbas into Russia would have opened the door for the rest of Ukraine to join NATO. Plus, excising Russian ethnics from Ukraine would have obviously weakened Russian geopolitical influence in what was left. That's a big enough elephant in the room to notice. Oligarchs might have benefited or suffered, but these are legitimate political concerns directly involving NATO and European influence which may well have influenced Putin's judgment.
I wouldn't be surprised at all. Putin did play a Western lackey for quite a long time. His clique even more so. That means he didn't want to take the Donbass back when it was offered to him, because he feared the Western optics of it. He was probably concerned about the backlash for taking Crimea.
But, something must have changed in Kremlin between then and now, apparently. I only hope that the change is for real and for good, otherwise the SMO is nothing but a costly and deadly farce.
"The signing of the Minsk agreements gave Ukraine time to develop between 2014 and 2021 and served to ensure that the West be able to furnish the necessary support to Kiev, Germany’s ex-Chancellor Angela Merkel said in a conversation made public by Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexei Stolyarov..."
I don’t know too much about Medvedchuk except that he was extensively interviewed by Oliver Stone in a 2019 documentary titled "Revealing Ukraine," in which you learn he's very wealthy and has strong personal ties to Putin, as supposedly Putin is a godfather to his youngest daughter. It's sort of amusing, using the term "godfather" when reflecting about political corruption.😁
That being said, after hearing Merkel's comments about the Minsk agreements being a strategic Trojan Horse for the West, I thought it was quite odd that the Kremlin didn't have enough intelligence, 😳 like in agents who would know its true intentions. Because if you had an inkling the agreements were just a trap, you'd never have waited seven years to give your supposed enemy such a tactical advantage, unless you were given a long term vision of how the ultimate outcome would be advantageous to those you hold near and dear. But of course, that would be far too cynical as it requires slaughtering hundreds of thousands of young Ukrainian and Russian soldiers. So no one person, or group could be that soulless, right? 🤨
Baby, I'm amazed...been listening to too many old Beatles' recording sessions on clips. Peter Halligan cross-posted Edward Slavsquat weekly news round-up, and your article was linked, Rolo.
My mind is still spinning. Many of the terms and names are still foreign to me, but I KNOW the script, and I know this script like the back of my hand.
I've been wondering for quite a while if the Rothschild Cartel had their claws into Russia. Seems they should...but then I read that Putin demanded the Rothschild thugs leave. I would actually conclude from your description, Rolo, that the money changers are alive and kickin' in Moscow.
Ladies and Gentlemen...never forget that American and English financiers and industrialists funded and supplied both sides of the WWII. Lest you disbelieve:
"According to the plan, the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) was created in 1930 to make Germany pay reparations to victors. In reality the money flows went in quite a different direction - from the United States and Great Britain to Germany. The majority of strategically important German companies belonged to American capital or were partly under its control. Some of them belonged to British investors. German oil refinery and coal liquefaction sectors of economy belonged to Standard Oil (the Rockefellers). FarbenindustrieAG chemical industry major wasmoved under the control of the Morgan Group. 40% of telephone network and 30% of Focke Wulf shares belonged to American ITT. Radio and AEG, Siemens, Osram electrical industry majors moved under the control of American General Electric. ITT and General Electric were part of the Morgan’s empire. At least 100% of the Volkswagen shares belonged to American Ford. By the time Hitler came to power the US financial capital practically controlled all strategically important sectors of German industry: oil refining, synthetic fuel production, chemistry, car building, aviation, electrical engineering, radio industry, and a large part of machine-building (totally 278 companies). The leading German banks - Deutsche Bank, Dresdner Bank, Donat Bank and some others - were under US control." https://www.voltairenet.org/article187508.html
They are doing the same in Ukraine right now only on a global level far more secretly hidden than the financiers were prior to WWII and on a level so vast and thorough that countries are infantilized and corrupted into economic enslavement (The World Bank, BIS, etc.) or liquidated in war.
Seeing the perspective Rolo painted, a million light bulbs went off in my head. I can easily see, even as an American citizen...albeit elderly, retired, and on a limited income--otherwise I'd pay subscribe...that the U.S. is pushing this war beyond its very limits. America ran out of ammo to supply Ukraine! Now, to understand that the Globalists have their players in Moscow, ah!! Bien entendu! How easy to start a war when one has operatives on both sides.
Many reasons may come to mind...some even mystic, Rolo!
1. Ukraine is the old Khazaria--home to the Khazarian Jews who were driven from their homeland and dispersed by Russia many centuries ago, This grudge runs deeply, and the blood of Slavs may be offered at sacrifice in retribution for this deep humiliation.
2. Ukraine plays the central geopolitic role in consolidating East-West dominion whether or not we speak of Chinese silk roads or control over Africa. Control this region and control the world.
3. The elimination of Slavs is crucial for some because the next epoch prophesized by Rudolph Steiner is The Slavic Epoch. In addition to Steiner, innumerable psychics have predicted that Russia and Eastern Europe will host the next Golden Age. In this epoch or next? Don't know.
I would say that certain elements, who desire total control over humans and the world's resources; the reduction of the world's population to 500,000; and the interfacing of human + AI, would like to think that they can alter divinely inspired human evolution. Mind you...the same humans slated to become the 10th Hierarchy of Angels.
Oh. Just so you know. The U.S. Congress passed a bill last week which eliminates the U.S. debt ceiling until 2025. Yes, 2025. This one's obvious. They need mucho dineros, amigos, for their Ukraine War. They don't want constraints. What does this tell you? It tells us that our dear Globalists are desperate. It also should tell you that they go nuclear if needed. They really don't care about Slavs.
Current Russia state remind me of state of PLC in XVIII century. Old hegemon with rotten elites and totally infiltrated by foreign agents. Any tries to reform and clean it up meet opposition from ruling corrupted elites and foreign funded agents. Sooner or later there gonna be push for balkanization where every oligarch would want to grab the biggest part of it for its own gain. It will not end well. Either New Russia will emerge or Russia will stop existing. as a significant player. Like in case of Poland before it.
Well, perhaps the answer to your main question (why Putin did not take ...) can be gotten from Soloviev [1]? Putin couldn't take something that, in his mind, belongs to neither Ukraine nor Russia. I'd not be surprised if he also believes that the whole Ukraine does not belong to Ukis either. In other words, in Putin's mind, it was neither up to Ukraine to give nor for Russia to take something that has nothing to do with them!
Declaring those areas as part of Russia (Sep 2022) was IMO just one of Putin's high-end PRs - one of the most blatant smoke-n-mirrors displays and lies of his - as one can deduct from his prior and follow up actions or rather the lack of. His plan for Russia seems to be to lose gracefully there and eventually return those areas to "Soloviev".
Is it accurate to say Russia did not want Donbass integrated into Russia because they would not be a restive loyalist population and might be too "free" for Putin's regime?
Donbas seems a bit of an unloved tar baby. We only hear sentimentality about it. Is it really the heart of the Ukrainian economy or a post-Soviet junkyard? Are the people still basically communists worshipping icons of Lenin and Soviet tanks? Does metropolitan Russia see them as yokels?
Rolo, would mind inviting this guy-I think Riley Waggaman or one of Riley's pals reposted him, so I listened to a couple of his podcasts-a really smart and modest guy he is. https://paulcudenec.substack.com/p/the-great-racket

Perhaps Russia was not "allowed" to take LNR DNR.
On May 7th 2014 Vladimir Putin met at the Kremlin with President of Switzerland and OSCE Chairperson-in-Office Didier Burkhalter.

Logically, it appears more than ever that the SMO was designed to fail from the outset.
Plunder in a new guise as the reparations come due.
