https://abcnews.go.com/International/wi ... e-83914520...and my comment,
...i did not imagine speaking to Mdme. Nuland again in this comments section about the Problem, but here we are facing "Russians" in the Ukraine (not unlike the "Ukrainians" who hold the same contempt for those who cannot accept their mythic realities as dogma): what is the Ukrainian identity being usurped.
...let us hope that in the Ukraine, the People are not prepared to allow "Them" control of the Agenda (so that they may continue in their proxy war) which leaves Ukrainians, Russian or Ukrainian, in affect without representation, ignored and dismissed; with their existence, and such an identity an existential question.
Let us focus on Mr. Putin because this is his war, prepared to divide Russians, not just Ukrainians, in his effort to define "Russians" (not unlike "Greekness" or "Turkishness'') as a hateful enterprise for (more) power and their superiority (read: dominance) over others.
...what is a BBF? And let's not forget that the USA was the first such Political System where a State defends its Citizens as equals, as Individuals, securing their Freedom by defending a Rule of Law, without the need for any other distinction or discrimination among them, while as Persons, at another level of government, as Constituencies, they may as distinct identities represent a Majority, having this Liberty, mindful of the Minorities living among them by providing for their special needs also, as a People of Goodwill and Goodfaith having values based on the same Universal Principles which only "few" resist.
...and if a solution is found, to the Problem, in the Ukraine, one hopes it is the "perfect solution" which has been the preoccupation in Cyprus for so long, because many countries need such an example to emulate.
...Mr. Erdogan, i imagine would not be against such a notion, a BBF. What with his own country torn as it is with the same problem, it would be a great Legacy for him to make the same reform with Turkey's Constitution: a BBF; a State and Constituencies: as individuals defending Freedom, as persons enjoying their Liberty respectfully as a loving people.
