Help.. We have a referendum in The Netherlands about the EU associative agreement with Ukraine.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukraine%E2%80%93European_Union_Association_Agreement
Should I vote No for this agreement or Yes? I want to support Ukraine in their fight against Russia (since Russia has become massive porky and imperialist in Ukraine), but at the same time, I don't want to escalate the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The associative agreement is also a little bit porky. Check out the Wikipedia. But at the same time, it's also an agreement to fight corruption.
What should I vote? I'm also wondering what other Dutch comrades are voting.
No.607474
I would personally vote Yes. If Russia, as a country, has any sense, they'll recognize Ukraine's right to engage in whatever international organizations that they want. We shouldn't turn the Ukrainians away simply because we're afraid of Russia's paper tiger.
No.607483
Part of the agreement has already been put into practice, the referendum talks more specifically about cultural and political support from the EU.
You can define the yes- and no-arguments as follows;
* against the agreement
- Ukraine is a country divided into two parts with one being loyal to Russia, the other hangs towards the EU. As the agreement with count for the entire country it will increase internal struggles.
- Ukraine's political stance is, compared with most EU countries towards the far right and their still is the fascist Azov-battalion with at least some ties to political parties.
- It will decrease the already fragile and frustrated relationship with Russia and especially Putin.
- It might be the first stip towards Ukraine joining the EU. Which is also interesting because the country can be used against Russia and contains Europe's third largest amount of schale gas.
* voting in support of the agreement
- It will help the pro-EU part of Ukraine on various levels of support, especially since the pro-Russia part is more of less supported by Russian political elements.
* It means taking an active stance against the practices of Russia which many Europeans disagree with and will most likely have the support of countries with a strong anti-Russian bias such as Poland and Estonia.
* Increasing trade and political connections within Europe will strenghen relationships and might be helpful for a more peaceful country.
* If you believe that expanding the EU is a good thing, especially in relation to Russia and Putin.

I thought so too, but leftist opponents of the associative agreement call it a neoliberal agreement which forbids Ukraine to provide government involvement in certain things and say that it is mainly good for multinationals and bad for most people.

The SP opposes it mainly on neoliberalist grounds as connections between the US and Ukrainian Gas Boards have already been established around 2014 and many view this specifically as geopolitics and not something we do to help the people there.
Labour however has lost virtually all of their decency of the past few years and nowadays more or less consistenly supports the neoliberal VVD on most points and therefore also this agreement.

You're a mongoloid. "Fascism is capitalism in decay" was a figure of speech used by Lenin to explain that, as capitalism falters, fascism rises. It doesn't mean that any capitalist economy shitting itself is instantly fascistic, even if it starts flirting with nationalism. Fascism is characterized by very specific things, of which the most important are:
>Powerful and Continuing Nationalism
>Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
>Supremacy of the Military
>Obsession with National Security
>Religion and Government are Intertwined
>Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts
The Ukraine currently merely touches on a few of these, and only a little. It is not fascist by any means.
If you want a modern example of a fascist nation, look at the DPRK. If you still don't get it, please kill yourself.

There is no such thing as a neo-nazi regime anywhere in Europe. There are some neo-nazi parties which try to influence the government as is the case in most of post-communist Europe, but the government itself is in no way neo-nazi.
What it is is corrupt and serving only itself and certain outside interests. Before it was serving Russian interests now it is serving Western corporate interests.
What it needs is to shake any outside influence and focus on serving the common Ukrainians who need help desperately. However I think becoming closer to the EU is better than nothing, since it may force the government to become more responsible and transparent.

Isn't it kind of spooky to give any fucks about things like culture, though? I know how Russia enforces it and how it renders daily life humiliating, but the Ukraine isn't really special in this. Being from Holland, more specially the Friesland province, let me tell you the second Holland became a nation state it immediately ordered all provinces such as mine that have distinct un-Dutch cultures be culturally changed to be more "Dutch". We barely have our own language anymore, nor our traditional jobs and custom, etc. because centuries of Dutch cultural supremacy destroyed it. But still, we're well off because culture is but a spook. But I do see what you mean (that getting culture forced down your throat sucks, even if it's just a spook).

As annexed territory in the 17th to 19th century, it had no means of doing so. It was under the oppressive thumb of the russian Empire.
Consider that before this, it was raped by the Polish—Lithuanian Commonwealth, to the extent that there was a request to be annexed by the Muscovites in the 1650's (from which an even worse oppression began).

I'd vote for no. Sure, both sides are almost equally bad, but the start of all this mess was a right-wing nationalist coup staged by NATO and EU. The reaction, the antimaidan in donbass, while supported by russia, was actually a more egalitarian, chaotic and grassroots movement than the maidan in kiev. They also don't have neo-nazi batallions roaming around unchecked and even some vague leftist leanings.
Being (central-)European, i don't want these geopolitical strategies to be successful, so when forced to pick a side, I'd actually pick Russia.

>the government itself is in no way neo-nazi.
Of course not, but in the case of Ukraine fascist militias became government-approved paramilitary groups, integrated into the Ukrainian armed forces, and fascists have a legitimate presence in Ukraine's parliament, albeit small. What's more fascists aren't all collected into a few groups, like Azov Battalion, but spread all over the place, and inevitably some are being trained by foreign advisers from NATO.
To a certain extent I think European leaders, no matter how porky they are, have learned to keep fascists on a short leash; they're useful up to a point, savaging approved opponents but should in no way access the levers of power personally like it was with Hitler being made Chancellor.

I would vote against it for the simple reason the eastward march of the EU and NATO has a lot to do with the current morass and heightening of tensions in the east. Why make things worse?

But, good luck with your future attempts at discrediting Ukraine. You won't get anywhere, but I wish you the best in your efforts.
A notice to those reading this thread: Every time you see random attacks by a poster on Ukraine, you're dealing with a person paid by the Russian government to spread something called Anti-Ukrainian Sentiment. It's an attempt to legitimise the criminal activity of Putin and his kleptocracy.

This version of events is commonly accepted as true except by the government of ukraine and its local allies. But keep in mind that this is a government which, on a weekly basis, claimed that the invading russian tanks were so thoroughly destroyed by them that there remained no trace of them to be found. Or in which someone who unironically claimed Russia dropped nuclear bombs on ukrainian troops can become minister of defense.

view to increasing the participation of Ukraine in EU-led civilian and military crisis management operations as well as
relevant exercises and training activities, including those carried out in the framework of the Common Security and
Defence Policy (CSDP).
Military engagement would only result in more hostility from Russia against the EU.
Yes-voters are claiming that it's about peace talks between Russia and Ukraine and that it won't result in any actual NATO troops on Ukrainian soil, but it doesn't clarify this anywhere in the agreement.
Since this is a pretty important aspect of the agreement I would vote no until there is more clearance on this.
