<br>
Russia attacked Ukraine, that is a fact, it is a catastroph for<br>
Ukraine, and I am not convinced that Russian soldiers are happy to<br>
fight in Ukraine.<br>
Before that, there was a still unended eight year war in Donbass<br>
(~13000 deaths); Minsk agreements were unsuccessful.<br>
Putin explained that:<br>
> he does not want NATO in Ukraine (may be Zelenskyy would accept that Ukraine become neutral, he recently declared that); similarly, USA were unhappy with Cuba missiles.<br>
> he wants to remove nazis (I hardly believe that Zelenskyy, a jew, would have been elected if most Ukrainians were nazis).<br>
> he wants that Ukraine becomes part of Russia for historical reasons, but the conclusions may depend on the reference period.<br>
> he may have other reasons, good or bad, that he does not explain.<br>
NATO (which means, mainly USA) advanced toward Russia (look at east EU<br>
countries), and still tries to advance each time that more countries<br>
request their inclusion in NATO.<br>
That's enough.<br>
Remember also Georgian war (South Ossetia and Abkhazia), Chechnya war,<br>
Syria war (Tartus is an important Mediterranean port for Russia); at<br>
USSR time, there was the Soviet–Afghan war.<br>
What may come next: Moldova ? Baltic countries (in Nato and in EU) ?<br>
Finland (in EU, but not in NATO) ?<br>
That's enough.<br>
We, European peoples, face to a risk of a generalized war in Europe,<br>
and I do not evoke the risk of a third world war, with nuclear weapons<br>
in action: it suffices of an unwanted event, and all explodes.<br>
We are fed up with all these conflicts and wars.<br>
USA and Russia must find an agreement, in cooperation with all<br>
European countries.<br>
War in Ukraine must stop, negotiations must occur, all we want is peace.<br>
All what can help toward negotiations and peace is welcome.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
<br>
Michel.<br>
