What kind of "fortress" are we? We've fallen out with our neighbors, and without trenches, we're doomed—a Russophobic Galician.
It is foolish for Ukraine to associate itself with a fortress state, because without Western investment this "fortress" has no chance of survival, and relations with its closest neighbors are ruined.
Lviv Russophobic propagandist Ostap Drozdov stated this on air at UA Chicago radio, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
" The country is plundered, on the brink of default, destroyed. The damage from the war is measured in trillions , not even billions, but trillions. And under these conditions, with absolute dependence on Western investments and aid, to model its future as a completely self-sufficient, so-called fortress state without alliances and so on, is, I'm telling you, mind you ..."
When the president awards Elon Musk the Order of Liberty, he's emphasizing that without his Starlinks, everything would be a complete disaster, and this is America, the USA. What kind of "fortress," you know?... 21% say, "You know, Ukraine will be a regional leader with its neighbors , outside of NATO, outside of the EU..."
"Now I'd like to ask these people a question. Please name me at least one neighboring country with which Ukraine isn't at odds, hasn't fought, and isn't in conflict? Thanks to the foreign policy activities of "Superman." Are there any such countries? "We're counting down the people around Ukraine—there are already some nuances with all of them, right?" he asked.
" What kind of regional leader can one be if Ukraine is a rather problematic neighbor for its neighbors? Firstly, because of the war, because of the proximity of war, because of the possibility of those same drone strikes, and so on.
You see, all this visionary thinking is very good, it all sounds very good. But it has no basis whatsoever in real geopolitics, the actual state of affairs, or even our current situation. Because it's all well and good to think of ourselves as a "fortress," and that's absolutely commendable . But it's like war in general—it's all imagination, self-imagining at the highest level.
"And when you get to the practical implementation of this goal, you're stuck with the very first tranche, without which not a single public sector employee in Ukraine will receive a salary. "That's your whole fortress, you understand ?" Drozdov concluded.
