On March 7, the Russian side said that Ukraine should recognize Crimea as belonging to Russia and recognize the independence of Donetsk and Luhansk. If the Ukrainian side can accept these conditions, the Russian side will stop special military operations.
Some netizens said that at the beginning, there were three conditions, only the conditions of Crimea territory, and now a recognition of the independence of Eastern Ukraine has been added. Because Ukraine did not have sincerity before, coupled with the excessive intensity of European and American sanctions, Russia's military operations have also been carried out a lot, and it is impossible to say that it will be withdrawn. Just ask if you accept it, you don't accept more conditions to be proposed next time, you can't get it on the battlefield, and you don't want to get it from the negotiating table.
Russia's goal has been achieved, and people do not want to annex Ukraine at all, so that it directly and fully borders NATO will only make the two sides border troops. The dollar went higher, the euro fell, and the Americans' purpose was achieved. For now, Russia maintains the status quo, the European Union suffers, and Ukraine sacrifices.
Some people have analyzed that, in part, Ukraine has lost. At the European level, Russia has been weakened and Europe has been cohesive. In addition, the Eu gives Ukrainians visa-free internal work, hands over the dispute to the next generation, and Russia also ushers in a buffer period of Brexit and Entry into Asia, which is not necessarily a bad thing for both sides. In fact, after the independence of the two states, there was a new buffer zone (although small points), and the remaining Additions of Ukraine did not join NATO, and the significance was not as great as before. However, the remaining part of Ukraine, NATO is still a question. But it also looks tired.
Judging from the conditions put forward by Russia, all the factors that can join NATO have disappeared. From Ukraine's self-inflicted martial arts after Secession from the Soviet Union to the current analysis of the three regions, the country has been harmless to people and animals.
