Having annexed, or if you use the slang of semi -angle lower classes, having rumbled Crimea, Russian President Vladimir Putin essentially put an end to the idea of ​​reconstruction of the post -Soviet space. Running a piece of Ukraine set up all of Ukraine against himself. Even those Ukrainians who were loyal, adhered to pro -Russian views, changed their attitude to our country.

The consequences of Putin's foreign policy will make themselves felt in the future. After Crimea, the process of destruction of the post -Soviet space will become irreversible. None of the CIS countries recognize the annexation of Crimea. At least out of a sense of self -preservation. In this case, it itself will be in isolation in conjunction with Russia, which will swallow it in a similar way. Relations inside the CIS will deteriorate, cannot but deteriorate. The Commonwealth breathes in the incense.

I am sure that the CIS, CSTO, Euras, TS, will not last long. T.K. Hold on absolutely rotten principles. If the Hebrews is united by the value of democracy, rights and freedoms of man and citizen, so everyone is striving there, then the post -Soviet space is kept on the relations of domination and subordination. Russia holds the former Union republics not on creative foundations, but using the negative components, weak and vulnerable sides of satellites.

Belarus Russia pays huge subsidies, if only there, a dictatorial regime has been preserved there, to which the road to Europe is closed. For the sake of geopolitics, even humiliation suffers, such as this happened with the impudent arrest of the CEO of Uralkali, in fact, the hostage capture.

Kazakhstan is part of the Customs Union with Russia purely due to geopolitical circumstances. It has the most long border, up to 4 million Russians live compactly in the north of the republic. Sharp body movements would cause the Kremlin irritation, which is fraught with Kazakhstan. And Russia keeps other Central Asian republics in its orbit on a banal blackmail. Breaking at least two things: to deal with migrant workers if the leadership of the republics turns away from Russia and hinting at the Islamic threat. Weak semi -feudal regimes be afraid to once again cause Moscow irritation. But they are also not with their hands against the world community. Between Armenia and Azerbaijan there was a path situation due to Nagorno-Karabakh. The Kremlin plays on contradictions and retains them in its deck.

But the Crimean adventure of the Kremlin can radically change the existing geopolitical structure. The aggressiveness of Putin's Russia will push the satellites, relations between countries will no longer be the same.

Now Belarus is an improvement in relations with the West, with which the ruling regime on knives all 20 years of the reign of Alexander Lukashenko. In the republic, it is planned to declare an amnesty political prisoners in order to stop confrontation with Europe and achieve relief of sanctions from Belarusian enterprises and officials. The aggressive policy of Russia even pushes the dictator into the arms of the Western unloved by him.

Putin lost not only Ukraine, he begins to lose Belarus. What he will do next, it is easy to predict, he will arrange new provocations. If Belarus begins to improve relations with the West, stands against it are possible. This is the essence and style of the Putin method of solving geopolitical problems.

Question: How to preserve the geopolitical space on the site of the former USSR? Yes, and with the prospect of attracting other countries to their side? To do this, it is necessary to completely abandon the entire list of political methods conducted by Putin and the Kremlin. This approach is destructive, destructive, has exhausted itself, repels people from Russia. This policy turns fraternal peoples into irreconcilable enemies. Russians and Ukrainians are really fraternal peoples. But it is not their fault that the gangster regime ruling in Russia sows to disturb the peoples between the peoples, brimming, declaring the whole people "fascist".

To save this space. Russia should respect the choice of these peoples, recognize their desire to preserve and develop national identity, culture, language. If Ukrainians say, we must develop the Ukrainian language in Ukraine, Ukraine should be Ukraine, and Putin says, we will only develop Russian. For example, Ukrainian was banned in Crimea. This repulsive factor will lead to a narrowing of the allies and isolation of Russia, which will be cooked in its own juice. Only by recognizing that Ukraine should be Ukraine with the priority of the Ukrainian language and culture, Russia in the person of Ukraine will receive an ally and friend. Otherwise, he will receive what he should get: distrust and desire to go away from Russia, to Europe.
