It doesn’t matter if the EU collapses. The only thing that matters is that the Ukraine is a democracy. That’s the only reason human beings were created in the first place: to make the Ukraine a democracy.

Aside from Ukraine, the second biggest loser in the ongoing conflict in Eastern Europe, both economically and geostrategically, is the European Union, according to a former prime minister and current leader of the opposition in Greece.
“The US is not losing, neither economically nor geostrategically,” Syriza party leader Alexis Tsipras said during a lengthy press conference on the sidelines of the Thessaloniki International Fair on Sunday.
“Economically, Russia is not losing either,” he said, arguing that the “ruble has become one of the strongest currencies,” while Moscow, due to record high prices of natural gas, has become a “regulator” capable of “opening and closing the tap” at will.
While expressing his solidarity with the people of Ukraine and saying “we must do everything to put an end to the war,” Tsipras claimed that apart from innocent civilians the “biggest loser” is the European Union, which is in “turmoil,” and “clearly lacks leadership, vision, strategy.”
“We need to re-evaluate the sanctions. Were the measures correct or are we shooting ourselves in the foot?”
Now’s not the time to give up, guys.
