Two precedents

They killed in Kosovo, but this is not an argument - and “you know, these are not even double standards. This is some kind of amazing primitive and straightforward cynicism. You can’t do everything so rudely under your interests, the same object is called white today, and tomorrow it is black. It turns out that you need to bring any conflict to human victims, or what?”

In the historical Munich Kremlin speech, which sounded the day before yesterday under the arches of the St. George Hall, this argument seemed especially convincing. In fact, mass killings and hundreds of thousands of refugees following the results of the Kosovo war - why is this necessary? Is it better to immediately introduce troops for preventive purposes and hold a referendum by the Stakhanov pace? Or are we not humanists?

Such a polemic technique was used by our benefactor, speaking in the Kremlin. So he answered the Western demagogues, who created the "Kosovo precedent" and did not want to admit that in Crimea Russia acted according to NATO samples. So he turned over the Atlantic.

In his own way, Vladimir Vladimirovich is right. In any case, there is such a point of view that the West has been mutilated with Milosevich for too long, instead of immediately, in Putin, to put order in the former Yugoslavia. That is, to save thousands of lives and do not condemn hundreds of thousands of people to torment. However, Putin did not yet engage in politics and could not tell the indecisive Americans and Europeans how they should act.

Other people were engaged in great policy in Russia. Until the last, they supported Comrade Slob. Together with Chinese friends, they stubbornly and consistently voted against foreign intervention in the internal affairs of the Belgrade butcher. They defended the principle of the inviolability of the post -war boundaries. They bear a considerable part of responsibility, if we follow the logic of the current president of the Russian Federation, for many years of civilian massacre in the former Yugoslavia in general and the Kosovo tragedy in particular. Moreover, it is important to note that the Kremlin’s so cold -blooded attitude to massacres was determined by approximately the same feelings as the Crimean Anschlus. Fraternal feelings for the Slavs, over whom Madlen Albright mocked with her inherent European allies.

There is generally a rather paradoxical situation.

Then, in the damned 90s, the policy of Russia in discussions with the West regarding the Serbs and Albanians came down to the formula: let them kill each other, if only Kosovo did not proclaim independence. Now, a couple of decades later, the concept has changed sharply. In the Crimea, the most quiet and cloudless region of post -revolutionary Ukraine, armed crowds of brutal polite people tear local flags, hang new ones and are already beginning to kill Ukrainian sailors. There was no massacre - it will be so.

Short and disgusting, like all events of this kind, NATO war against Milosevich led to the world. This war can be treated as you like, but its Western goals, contrary to all catastrophic forecasts, reached. The massacre went down in history, and even the Serbs intend to now join the organization that was engaged in their point re -education and sent Milosevich to the camera of the Hague tribunal. They gather in the North Atlantic Alliance. Despite the fact that the boundaries of the decayed Yugoslavia have changed a lot. And this is not about the fact that the winners are not judged, but about the losers. The loser of the criminal finished his life in prison. The loser of the country, if she did not forgive, she reconciled with her former enemies. Such an unexpected finale of a peacekeeping operation.

Another thing is Crimea. With one strong -willed effort of the Russian president, Russia and the West are plunged into the Cold War and the relations of the two fraternal peoples - Russian and Ukrainian - were poisoned forever. As they say, feel the difference when Putin lands his Primetinsky landing on the Black Sea coast and performs in the Kremlin under the slogan "Let the world perish, but Crimea will be nashensky!" Compare the Kosovo precedent with the Crimean. And means, and goals, and consequences.

In Kosovo they killed, but for Vladimir Vladimirovich, this, of course, is not an argument. What kind of war is this, which is being started in order to end the murders? Who is so fighting? But to create a conflict out of nothing, out of the blue, and even with the mouth of his special propaganda-denonent to threaten humanity with a nuclear apocalypse with a total "incineration" is a completely different style of argumentation. And not the slightest double standards.

All that, you know, black and white, like an old cinema about the Second World War, about the triumph of will, and this is a fresh look of a word, put into circulation in the St. George Hall, also from those times. National Districts. Munich is such as the day before yesterday his speech and some other speeches, including what was made in the city of Munich. What a Miloshevich is already there - take it above.
