Among many other things, said that Ukraine would not close the border
with Russia. (The gas to Europe etc. etc.) Also that they could not
effectively prevent the arrival of the "titushky" but does not
consider them a major problem. We can only try to control the border a
little bit more, increasingly....Generally we are only getting started
and can only do so much. We will slowly do better.
Another thing: asked why the Russians refuse to recognize the current
Ukrainian government. Reply: they have become the victims of their own
informational propaganda. Having for months zombified their population
through their controlled media that "Banderites" are causing problems
to Yanuk, they now can't recognize the legitimacy of these
"Banderites"..... smooth.....
But things will slowly change, he says. Within a few weeks and before
25 May Ukraine will sign the association agreement with Europe. Says
they have much understanding and cooperation from European diplomats.
So I guess it's still basically "passive/active moral resistance" for
some time + lots of diplomacy.
