Macron: The worst is yet to come: Putin wants to take ‘the whole of Ukraine’
According to a report by Agence France-Presse on March 3, a senior aide to Macron disclosed that “the expectation of the president (Macron) is that, from what President Putin said, the worst is yet to come”. “Putin Nothing the president told us reassured us, he showed great determination to continue this operation” and Putin “intends to seize control of the whole of Ukraine and, in his words, he will continue to carry out this operation. Ukraine’s ‘denazification’ campaign to the end”.
Macron also urged Putin to avoid harming civilians and to allow humanitarian aid in.
Putin agreed, “but made no promises,” while denying that the Russian military was targeting Ukrainian civilian infrastructure.
The Kremlin said: Putin mentioned in the call that there were attempts to delay the negotiations to buy time, which “will only allow us to increase the demands on Kyiv in the negotiations”.
Putin vowed again to achieve the goal of “demilitarization” of Ukraine, telling Macron that “Russia intends to continue this uncompromising war against militants of nationalist armed groups”.
Deciphering Putin’s “demilitarization”
Comprehensive analysis and interpretation from all walks of life shows that Putin’s demand for “demilitarization” of Ukraine is not to deprive Ukraine of its right to have its own military power, but to prevent Ukraine from relying on NATO countries to transmit arms in recent years, and even attempt to eventually join NATO’s political trend.
As the core region of the former Soviet Union, Ukraine has close ties with Russia in both military and industry. The “Declaration of State Sovereignty of Ukraine” adopted by the Ukrainian Parliament on July 16, 1990, on the one hand, established the priority of Ukrainian law over Soviet law and its retention of the powers of an independent army and a central bank, and on the other hand clearly declared that Ukraine “Resolves to be a permanently neutral country, will not join the military camp” and will not accept, produce or manufacture nuclear weapons. Since then, Ukraine’s constitution has also expressly prohibited foreign military bases in the country.
After the Orange Revolution of 2004-2005, the Ukrainian-speaking, pro-Western Viktor Yushchenko came to power, defeated the pro-Russian Viktor Yanukovych, and established Ukraine to join NATO as a final state The way to the safety goal. The Ukrainian Congress officially cancelled its policy of not joining the camp in 2014; after the current President Volodymyr Zelensky came to power, the goal of joining NATO was written into the constitution in 2019, and it does not allow foreign countries to set up military bases. The “neutral state” clause of the
After Crimea has been publicly invested in Russia, in 2015, the then Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko signed the Minsk Agreement with Russia, which stipulated that Ukraine must give Ukrainian Donetsk and Luhansk ( Lugansk) “special status” in exchange for their full return to Ukrainian control. However, Ukrainian national sentiment ran high, and Poroshenko’s 2015 attempt at minor constitutional revision failed.
In this regard, Putin stated in his speech on February 21: “In the endless eight years, we have done everything possible to solve the situation by peaceful political means, but everything has been in vain.”
Putin’s “demilitarization” demand is to return Ukraine to its original intention of “neutrality” at the beginning of its independence.
Eight years of fighting in the Donbass have left both sides dead and wounded, and the pro-Western Ukrainian government has been branded a Nazi against ethnic Russians.
The Ukrainian government has implemented a series of policies in recent years, apparently exalting Ukrainian language and culture, while suppressing Russian language and culture. For example, in 2016, the authorities passed a law requiring more than 60% of radio and television programs to be in Ukrainian; in 2017, the education law stipulated that children in the fifth grade and above must study in Ukrainian.
In July 2021, Putin pointed out that the consequences of this “forced assimilation” are tantamount to attacking Russia with “weapons of mass destruction”.
This may be why Putin has labelled Ukrainian authorities a “neo-Nazi”.
