Incidentally, I've been saying that Russia would annex the productive eastern regions, leaving a rump state in western Ukraine that Europe would be forced to prop up with billions, or face a massive refugee crisis from the very start. The mainstream press has finally caught up. https://lemmygrad.ml/post/480378/348104

Exactly, once the EU is broken up then the US can approach individual countries from the position of absolute power. And it's basically going to engage in the exact same type of colonialism that the west has been doing in the rest of the world.

Jup and with the end of the soviet union, the need of a united wealthy europe became obsolete. Nationalists are not a threat to the usa, because they are much more easily set on their neighbors and bought off with promises of "great national rejuvenation".
