Regarding the events in Ukraine. I ask Ukrainians to answer the questions first, without any unnecessary chatter or insults! The goal is to understand the situation, not to lecture you or engage in other nonsense. After all, we in Russia have our own leader and our own problems! 1). Do you support the current "Euromaidan" or not? What are the differences between it and the previous one from 10 years ago? 2). What do you dislike about the current president? Please, keep it brief. 3). Do you think Ukraine as a whole will benefit or not from joining the EU? Are you aware of the advantages (concessions) that need to be made when joining? Are you aware of the advantages (concessions) of joining the Customs Union? What are these advantages/concessions? 4). If the borders are opened, high-quality European goods will obviously flood into Ukraine at prices comparable to domestic ones. Will you continue to support your domestic producers with your money? And what about everyone else? How do you think this might affect businesses? Will they stay afloat? The main sales market – Russia – will automatically close (because Russia fears that cheap goods will transit through Ukraine into Russia). Do you think the EU will allow industries, for example, the machine-building industry, to sell Ukrainian products in its countries? How competitive will it be with the advanced technologies of the EU? Will they promote their own manufacturers to provide Ukraine with new sales markets to replace the old ones? 5). Why would the EU, which is experiencing a prolonged economic crisis, want to accept new members that will have to be subsidized in one way or another? And why would the USA want this? And why would Lithuania, Poland, and Sweden want this? 6). Do you expect that in Europe (with unemployment exceeding 20%), they will be happy to have labor from Ukraine? And what kind of work will it be? 7). Who would you vote for if elections were held tomorrow? 8). What is your attitude towards the USSR and the collapse of the Soviet Union? In principle, answering these questions should be enough, and we can stop discussing it. And I ask everyone, especially Russians, to be restrained!!!
