  • I added an edit to my previous answer while you were writing yours, and if you're angry/'the one who downvoted my previous comment(, a few minutes after you answered)', then chill out man, if you're looking for opponents then go elsewhere than Lemmygrad where we're all on the same side, don't picture me as someone i'm not.

    the Kiev regime had no intention of negotiating

    Yeah, they thought they could win(, or that they had to take the chance). Wouldn't you agree that they seem to have changed their mind since the last year, being now more inclined towards a negotiated settlement that doesn't come ?I suppose that not, based on your comment. Would you say that they're simply delusional ? I tried here to imagine what would be conditions such that both sides could agree to it, as pointless as it is.

    Here's the russian's June 2024 demands b.t.w.So, i think that Ukraine could accept them, by asking for these economic promises and later referendums in surplus, since it's not forbidden to add their conditions to the russian ones.I think that both sides could end up agreeing on these conditions. If you don't then ok, i don't see what i could add to what i said.

    The Russian people would see relinquishing what they fought and died for as a complete betrayal and would oust any Russian government that tried to do that.

    Even if it's a 2050 referendum from these regions(, after Ukraine went back to support Russia, Belarus, and the side it held for pretty much its whole past) ?If they still don't want to in 2050, then Ukraine will have taken its chance.

    Ukraine had a chance to keep the entire Donbass with the Minsk agreements.

    Yeah(, the civil war kept raging though, even if Ukraine put anti-russian leaders in charge in these regions, they often had more than 95% of them voting for pro-russian political parties, not easy to overturn that), because they were interested in Crimea, and instead of cancelling their western shift they increased it, motivated by revenge instead of recognizing their wrongs.Similarly, they lost Crimea due to previous pro-western decisions that endangered Russia(, making Crimea a n.a.t.o. port, overthrowing Yanukovich, anti-u.s.s.r. and anti-russia sentiments, opening themselves entirely to western companies and organizations, ...) It was multiplied under Poroshenko, etc.They perfectly knew how the west intended to use them against Russia, how we destroyed Yugoslavia and acted in the Chechnyan conflict, or used other russian neighbours against it, but despite knowing the consequences for Russia they went for it anyway.

    And that is exactly why they are incompatible with eastern Ukraine

    They were pro-u.s.s.r. in the past, they can become pro-Rus again. As i said above, perhaps not for all of them though(, e.g. eastern Galicia).And if you disagree and claim that Kiev, for example, will never rejoin its old side again, then we'll both disagree, and so be it.

  • You may not have seen the edition of my previous comment

    What "Ukraine" - aka the current illegitimate regime in Kiev - values is of no importance to Russia.

    What's the difference with the west then ? Aren't they supposed to be the civilized side while we're barbarians crowning ourselves the policemen of the world after having attempted to colonize it(, and continuing to steal their raw materials, etc.) ?Or perhaps that there's no difference and they should just do as they want to since they're the strongest.

    Those territories are essential to Russia's security.

    Having a pro-russian Ukraine is essential, not having n.a.t.o. and c.i.a. bases(/ports/..) at its borders is essential, ...Whether these territories are pro-russian or russian doesn't change much.

    If they were to give them back to a Russia-aligned Ukraine who's to say Ukraine wouldn't turn back into a hostile entity again at some point ?

    Yeah, i developed that point when editing my previous comment.Especially here : « That's why i initially thought of a relative control of Ukraine as an autonomous territory inside the russian federation, but perhaps that any agreement leaving Ukraine's military in Russia's hands would be enough. »With the conclusion that « So either Ukraine is proposed something that they desire more than their military/'ability to threaten Russia', and willingly agree to such negotiation, as said above. Or the strong takes what it can while the weak endures what it must. »Russia hasn't decided on a complete invasion of Ukraine for some reason(, which can be imagined), and everything indicate, from the first weeks of the war and the years preceding it, that they would prefer a negotiation to the use of force.

    And i think you are seriously underestimating the animosity that the people in the Donbass have toward the Ukrainian state.

    Don't you think that they still consider themselves ukrainian ?I.m.o., they just don't perceive Ukraine as pro-n.a.t.o., and consider themselves as the true ukrainians, while the other are fake newcomers that changed it after 1991, while painting the u.s.s.r. and Russia as an oppressive ruler instead of their brother.Pro-e.u. ukrainians don't have a problem with capitalism, n.a.t.o. interventionnism, nor the increasing grasp of the e.u. on the sovereignty of its member-states. They also consider themselves authentic by picturing ukrainians as having always struggle for independence, instead of belonging to the same Rus people, closer to Belarus and western Russia than to western Europe and eastern Russia.What i think is that they would like to bring back the rest of Ukraine to their side.

    The rest of your arguments seem to have been answered above :) ?

    (Feels weird to argue with someone from my side, i should perhaps take my lemmy.world account again)

    Edit post-answer :

    To sum up all these words : i think that ukrainians would value their western shift less than an economic boom and/or their territories so, if we suppose that Russia is looking for a negotiated resolution, it could promise referendums and negotiated economic advantages in exchange for the definitive loss of the ukrainian military capacity.

    If we take things from the ukrainian side : you're proposed a possibility to get back your territories if you're pro-russian, among other requirements needed to have the votes of these populations in the upcoming referendums ; you're also promised, through negotiated explicit conditions, an economic growth demanded by your population.In exchange, you just have to give up on your n.a.t.o. alliance.I don't see why they'd refuse.

    I don't think they're buying that they're on the side of freedom(, of speech, election, ...,) against authoritarianism. Nor that they'd join the anti-imperialist internationalist struggle for a multipolar world, against hegemonic capitalist-owned nationalists.Each ukrainian is different, but ideological battles of the good side against the bad one don't seem like it'd weight in their considerations. So i don't see why they'd refuse such proposal(, only seeing the economic promise of the e.u. based on Poland for their interest).

  • I think that Ukraine values these territories more than it values being able to contain&hamper Russia, but it could content itself with an immediate economic program and future territorial promises.So, an option could be the implementation of a negotiated economic program, as well as referendums in its old territories for, e.g., 2030, and then again one ~last time in 2050.

    In comparison, it's my belief that Russia values a friendly/russia-aligned Ukraine more than it values keeping these territories for itself. It remains to be determined if such alignment of Ukraine could be compatible with its election of a government among multiple political parties, not sure that banning all western influence could be done, sufficient, or even desirable perhaps(, because of the retaliation against foreign medias in the west).That's why i initially thought of a relative control of Ukraine as an autonomous territory inside the russian federation, but perhaps that any agreement leaving Ukraine's military in Russia's hands would be enough.The whole "security guarantees" that both sides are asking for is representative of the problem, since Ukraine will say that not being able to threaten Russia will threaten them.So either Ukraine is proposed something that they desire more than their military/'ability to threaten Russia', and willingly agree to such negotiation, as said above. Or the strong takes what it can while the weak endures what it must.

    The west obviously cares more about Ukraine's ability to hinder the Russian federation than Ukraine's economy or territory.However, Russia will care about its security much more than we(sterners) care about bringing its downfall(, just like we(sterners) would care about our security more than Russia would care about bringing our downfall).

    I don't think that there is that much hate between north-western and south-eastern ukrainians(, obviously there is once you start killing each other), the latter mostly fought against n.a.t.o., anti-russians, the e.u., ..., as well as against cultural/linguistic/political/socio-economical/.. ukrainian laws, and an overall change of their historical path.Perhaps would there be some irredeemable exception to a pro-russian reunification, such as eastern Galicia, which Poland would pay a lot to gain(, if the local population is given a choice through a referendum between independence or joining either side).

    Territories are a weird thing, we're ready to hurt everything in our path(, including erasing the local culture,) to gain what seems to be the most important possible thing a state could gain, yet won't like extending it through an alliance of different ideologies.It's precisely because we lack experience throughout history in such alliance of different ideologies that it'd appear nonsensical to claim that if Ukraine joined (with )the russian federation, then it'd be (part of )the largest country on Earth.

    I'd almost certainly learn more by talking with pro-n.a.t.o. redditors(, i.d.k. how long a single thread would take though, if i'm not censored before that), but let me know your thoughts if you ever feel inclined to.

  • hypocrites

    Yeah, look at this ex-general, current member of the Congress, a classic lack of self-awareness, especially two weeks after what they did to Venezuela and are doing to Iran, and are threatening to do in Mexico/Colombia/Cuba/.., and the (parliamentary )coup they supported in Peru, etc. :

    No doubt that if Ukraine was on Russia's side, they would consider it a security threat just like they're currently claiming for Russia, China, Iran, ...I think that Ukraine would be ready to rejoin the Russian federation in exchange for :- a recovery of their territories(, even if they were given by Russia in the past) ;- an autonomous status inside the federation(, it could be strong enough as long as there's no risk of western-backed remilitarization directed against Russia) ;- a serious heavyweight economic program with China's help for its development(, i.d.k. what China would receive, but ukrainian poverty was a huge factor that turned them against their previous family/side, even if we(sterners) were clearly responsible for it, accusing their oligarchs isn't going far enough) ;- the recovery of Transnistria according to the will of its population.It could be an alliance or confederation that would include a military fusion, there's no need to go as far as formally including Ukraine in the russian federation(, or giving back immediately each territory without referendums, negotiations are more complex than a lemmy comment, i'm just exploring possibilities)Of course, the west will complain, but nothing new at this point, they may forget a decade later, and historians will take into account the arguments presented in the russian speeches.

    Anyway, we(sterners) won't care about creating a world where everyone's security would be ensured against (c)overt influences. It's not even discussed, much less researched. And if it's not on our mind, it's because hegemony is our goal, not living (united )in diversity. Hegemony, and hence we(sterners), should be opposed.We may have many more problems(&qualities), but i currently don't care in comparison.

  • Donald Trump announces he will begin ground attacks on Mexican territory.

    Jump

  • As a kinda unrelated note, homicides went down 30%(!) in a single year, because repression/violence isn't the only way(, nor the best i.m.o.,) way to lower criminality, at least she adds social policies to her repression : https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/mexico-homicide-rate-2026

    (AMLO was awesome, and Ecuador proved among other countries that repression without social measures is less efficient than the right depicts it, they should just look at what works, e.g. many studies point to abortion in order to explain the diminution of criminality in the 90s, people aren't genetically predestined to sin, it's almost entirely a result of the environment, of course)

    Anyway, D.Trump shouldn't strike territories that don't want his "help".If we(sterners) want less crimes in poor countries, then having a relatively same standard of living in all of them should be our first priority(, but we'd lose our advantage when buying/investing abroad, as well as our disadvantage when exporting products made in the west, a disadvantage that we've shouldered until now through our monopoly on highly complex manufactured products).Also, perhaps attack the american buyers instead of the mexican makers ? I don't get it. Just like for the american druglords, one less mexican drug-maker would leave room for a new one to arrive.

    If i understood correctly, they'd need to work 3-4 times more in order to buy the same thing :

    So much "justice".

    The Government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela reiterates its international condemnation of being the victim of a criminal, illegitimate, and illegal aggression against its territory and its people, an action that has resulted in the deaths of more than one hundred civilians and military personnel who, in defense of the Homeland, were killed in flagrant violation of international law.As is well known, within the framework of this aggression, the illegal kidnapping of the Constitutional President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro Moros, and the First Lady, Cilia Flores, took place, an act that constitutes a serious violation of the personal immunity of heads of state and of the fundamental principles of the international legal order.In order to address this situation within the framework of international law, and in strict adherence to the principles of national sovereignty and Bolivarian Peace Diplomacy, the Bolivarian Government of Venezuela has decided to initiate an exploratory diplomatic process with the Government of the United States of America, aimed at re-establishing diplomatic missions in both countries, with the purpose of addressing the consequences of the aggression and kidnapping of the President of the Republic and the First Lady, as well as addressing a working agenda of mutual interestIn this context, a delegation of diplomatic officials from the United States Department of State arrives in the country to conduct technical and logistical assessments inherent to the diplomatic function. Likewise, a delegation of Venezuelan diplomats will be sent to the United States to carry out the corresponding tasks. As the Acting President, Delcy Rodriguez, has reiterated, Venezuela will confront this aggression through diplomatic channels, convinced that Bolivarian Diplomacy of Peace is the legitimate path for the defense of sovereignty, the restoration of international law, and the preservation of peace.Caracas, January 9, 2026.

  • Here's the full declaration(, automatic spanish subtitles translated in english works well).Does anyone here think that they shouldn't ?

    The argument/fear would be that they survived until now partly because they were authoritarian&cautious enough to prevent multiple coup attempts that would have worked in a lot of other countries(, but also because they got through economically, etc.). What if the u.s. warmed up the relations only to get close enough with them to do a coup ?

    I'd like to believe that after so many years they won't put themselves in a situation where the expected western betrayal has too much of an impact, among other precautions.I also believe in their participatory(&protagonic) process(, its critics would prefer bourgeois democracies). A contented population is useful against coups, and if all goes well economically then the best is yet to come and they'll have many more reasons to be proud of their collective accomplishments.They 'know what's at stake'/'feel the "weight of the centuries"' better than i do, and won't lower their guard, may there be no more killings&destructions.

  • US to control sale of Venezuelan oil indefinitely, Energy Secretary says

    Jump

  • I'm perhaps wrong but if they sell the oil at an unfair price, while paying for the whole infrastructure themselves, then they could keep 100% of what the u.s. leaves them, and use it for the good of the venezuelans.

    https://open.substack.com/pub/gzucman/p/understanding-us-intervention-in« In 1958, the 40–50 thousand workers employed by the oil and iron industries, comprising less than 3% of the country’s total workforce, earned more than half of the country’s wages. In addition, their housing, education and health services were provided by their employers.In contrast, the common city wage earner employed in industry and commerce on the other hand, spent 48% of his income on food. Less than one-third of dwellings were reported to have running water in the 1957 national census. Thus, even if Venezuela reportedly had the continent’s highest per capita income at the time—US$743 in 1962—this wealth was concentrated in the hands of those who benefited from the oil industry. » (source)

    It depends on how much the u.s. intends to rob them but, foolishly perhaps, i'd like to naively hope that D.Trump would then leave them in peace despite their direct democracy and egalitarian values(, until the next u.s. president).

    A weird idea would be a national referendum along the lines of "Would you rather [u.s. economic demands post-negotiations], or fight an invasion ?", both to show that they're not a dictatorship, and in order to leave the fate of the revolution to their hands.

    Through negotiations, these kind of demands could be granted as long as it doesn't exceed +10% of non-us products, reducing it to a selection of sectors. If it's understood that it'd ease the negotiations on oil, and be included in the eventual national referendum, just my ignorant opinion.

    1. With Venezuelan President Maduro deposed, what do you think the people in Venezuela would do in response to the US (under Trump)' involvement in his deposition ?

    Guerilla warfare worked for Afghanistan(, no doubt that they'll be called terrorists and not the u.s. troops).

    1. Would Acting President of Venezuela Delcy Rodriguez (who served as Maduro's Vice President) pick up where Maduro left off ?

    I.d.k., i.m.o. she should prepare for the incoming counter-revolutionary propaganda by, e.g., reminding everyone that the economic revival was going to happen and that's why the u.s. attacked, they'll need illegal propaganda outlets if invaded.And also prepare actively for resistance cells, how to hide them, finance them, recruit, plan ahead, achieve a relative autonomy, etc.An advantage to them is that Trump is hated by the (neo-)liberals, so they may repel an invasion by holding out long enough. Any last stand would in any case be of use to fuel the future nostalgia.Here they/we thought that the darkest times were past them, it's not fair.

They'll also ignore that it's our sanctions that ruined Venezuela b.t.w., or that it was attacked because sanctions were becoming inefficient since ~2022.Everybody is calling him a dictator, and none seem to be aware that the venezuelan communes render such accusations meaningless :

    How have Russia’s actions over the past decades actually infringed upon the interests of its opponents? Could it be that they cannot forgive us because it is the position of our country that made the military and strategic detente possible in the 1980s and 1990s ? Or that we voluntarily dissolved the Warsaw Treaty Organisation, depriving NATO of its raison d’etre ? Or that we supported Germany’s reunification without any conditions and contrary to the positions of London and Paris ? That we withdrew our armed forces from Europe, Asia, and Latin America, and recognised the independence of the former Soviet republics ? That we believed the promises by the Western leaders that they would not expand NATO to the east by a single inch, and when this process started, we agreed to basically legitimise it by signing the Russia-NATO Founding Act ? Could it be that we infringed on the West’s interests when we warned it that bringing its military infrastructure closer to our border would be unacceptable to us ?
