Moral Crisis

Basically, we can say that the majority of European countries managed to detach themselves from this war as if it was a distant conflict somewhere in the third world. Although they know that it clearly concerns them very much. If they didn’t realize this we can hardly explain the many summits, the breaking of heads on the question of arms production, the costs and parameters of this, and the questions of war and peace. We all agree that the world has become dangerous, and that Russia is the major mover of malevolent moves. And at the same time we have for four years of war, which really is going on for 12 years, weren’t able to come out with a morally dedicated project which would include Ukraine as an indivisible member of the Western security architecture. And not just out of ethical but also for purely practical reasons because this is a strategic necessity. Until now, we are only observers of the conflict, from which we are careful distancing ourselves, probably because of the risk that it carries. We are a society that is infected with a strange form of numbness, which has opened the door to forces that will eventually spell our doom.

David Svoboda is the go to Ukraine expert in Czech media. As an Ukraine expert he has problems speaking Russian. πŸ˜†πŸ‘Œ And what he suggests is Europe gets directly involved in the Ukraine war. Any European help to Ukraine will be seen as inadequate by supporters of Ukraine. Ironically some forces in Europe want to stop helping Ukraine. But if one stops the military deliveries this will speed up the defeat of Ukraine but continuation of the war costs Ukraine in people and treasure. And ironically ending the war is a genuinely pro-Ukrainian position but it would likely mean also the victory of Russia. πŸ˜†πŸ‘Œ

It is brutal, the supporters of Ukraine believe that if only we only supported Ukraine more with money and weapons, and probably direct involvement, Ukraine would be able to kick the Russians out. They celebrate every peremoha without considering the cost Ukraine pays. Every successful attack on refineries or Russian logistics is presented as turning the tide. However, Russia adapts, Russia becomes stronger and Ukraine is not kicking them out. Ironically, fueling the war might carry the ultimate cost for Ukraine, and all because we do not want Russia to win. πŸ˜†πŸ‘Œ
