UPD: 20/03/2014 The Putin corridor. View from Moldova

Путинский коридор. Взгляд из Молдовы

Russia builds a complete analogue of the Danzig Corridor, which is necessary for the successful transit of hydrocarbons - the basis of the Russian economy, according to iPress

So, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed an agreement on the adoption of Crimea into the Russian Federation. All the talk about the fact that Russia at the last moment will pass back, fearing sanctions and condemnation of the world community, talked and remained. However, this was expected from the very beginning.

Recognize, or do not recognize the other countries annexation of the Crimea - in this situation of great importance no longer has. Nothing but an air shock, the West is now unable to resist Russia. And while impotent talkers will denounce the Kremlin from international tribunes, Russians will settle in the Crimea. In fact, this means first of all the restoration of Soviet military bases and the construction of new ones.

Let me remind you that Crimea in the Soviet times was not so much a resort as an unsinkable aircraft carrier controlling the Black Sea region. Bases of the Soviet Union, formed, in fact, the second, an underground peninsula, capable of withstanding even a nuclear attack. Now this infrastructure has been received by Russia. Bringing it into working condition is a matter of one or two years, following which Russia will have another defense line. This line will not be superfluous for the Kremlin if its conflict with the West enters one day in a hot phase - and sooner or later it is likely to enter it.

But if there is a hot phase, much later. Today there is a surrender without a fight: both the West and Ukraine demonstrate utter confusion and powerlessness towards the aggressor. Ukraine can not fight: the army in fact does not exist at all, and all defensive lines in the eastern direction were dismantled by order of Yanukovych. In addition, the new Kiev authorities are concerned not so much with the fate of the country as with their own salvation and will go to any agreements and any territorial concessions, just to sit still. The EU and the US do not intend to seriously intercede for Ukraine - this is already obvious. Formal sanctions imposed by them against Russia, no real impact on Moscow can not.

Of course, in this entire history, a lot of historical analogies are immediately visible. The closest one is an analogy with Austria and Czechoslovakia, with the events of 1934-38. Today, like eighty years ago, a new player has appeared in Europe, demanding the retake of the entire pack of political cards. The player is not that strong, but desperate, he has nothing to lose. Russia is in an extremely difficult situation, not to say - a catastrophic economic situation, it is actually squeezed into a corner and therefore plays all-in and will, without any hesitation, use its nuclear weapons as the last argument. At the same time, Europe and the United States have something to lose. And because they are, in principle, many times stronger, do not want to go to a direct conflict, hoping to get rid of several pieces of meat thrown to a hungry predator. The role of the pieces of meat fell to us - Ukraine and Moldova - just like eighty years ago it went to Czechoslovakia and Austria.

To understand what is happening today is very easy - just look at the map. Before our very eyes, Russia is building the full analogue of the Danzig Corridor, which is necessary for the successful transit of hydrocarbons - the basis of the Russian economy. Currently, relying, including, and on a new springboard in the Crimea, Russia began seizing the South-East of Ukraine. All this is done to the accompaniment of Putin's statements that the Crimea is the limit of Russia's demands and that Russia does not pretend to other parts of Ukraine. But I would not take these assurances seriously. At one time, Hitler also said that he had enough of Austria, then Sudeten, then Czechoslovakia, then Poland ...

So, let's look at the map. After the seizure of Lugansk, Donetsk and Dnepropetrovsk oblasts - and this seizure is already practically resolved, the business of the nearest one and a half or two months, the map clearly shows an arc passing through the Crimea and ending in Moldova and the Odessa region. Here, Russia has excellent bridgeheads for the deployment of mobile forces: firstly, Transnistria, in which Russian troops are stationed and there is an airfield capable of taking all types of aircraft, and secondly, the Gagauz autonomy in the south of Moldova, where the referendum was recently held For rapprochement with the Eurasian Union. By the way, the Gagauz are a divided people. Two-thirds of Gagauzians live in Moldova and about a third in Ukraine ... Do you see what unlimited possibilities for protecting the trampled rights of a small and divided people open up here in front of Russia?

Путинский коридор. Взгляд из Молдовы

And a few more touches.

The leadership of the unrecognized Transdniestria has already consulted with Moscow and formally addressed the State Duma Chairman Sergei Naryshkin with a request to provide for Russian legislation to include Transnistria in Russia . The appeal came in the form of a review of the draft law on the simplification of the procedure for the accession of new territories to Russia. Let me remind you that the draft law envisages the admission of territories of other states to Russia, if there is no "effective legitimate power" in them, on the basis of the results of a referendum or the appeal of their authorities, while Transnistria, de jure owned by Moldova, and de facto not controlled by it For two decades it is just perfect for this definition. It is also clear that Gagauzia, plus Gagauzian-populated territories in the Odessa region, is a matter of technology and money, everything is decided in a couple of weeks.

Do not lose time and in the capital of Gagauzia - Comrat. Here, a decision has already been taken to create a kind of "people's guard", which completely repeats the Crimean scenario. As for Moldova's ability to give a power response to such actions, they are as ephemeral as the possibilities of Ukraine. Especially in view of the fact that Russian assistance - perhaps, in the script approved in the Crimea, in the form of "green men" without insignia, can be transferred to the scene of events in just a few hours.

It is characteristic that Moldova, like Ukraine, does not have to count on the help of its neighbors. Romanian President Traian Basescu has already announced his country's non-interference in case of Russia's annexation of part of the Moldovan territory.

Of course, opposition to Russia's plans in our region is still possible - but the window of opportunity is very narrow. Theoretically, Ukraine and Moldova could jointly take control of the situation in Gagauzia and in the border areas of the Odessa region. Could they take control of the situation in Transnistria - but, I repeat, only by concerted actions. However, there will be no concerted action. First, both Chisinau and Kiev do not trust each other and calculate the options their partner at the decisive moment will pass back, hand them over to Moscow - and get a set of bonuses for it. These fears, I must say, are absolutely justified - both from Kiev and from Chisinau. In addition, both in Kiev and in Chisinau, the authorities are very weak and incapable of resolute actions, all its forces and resources are thrown on one thing - to sit and sit at any cost. And so the actions of both Chisinau and Kiev were and will be powerless and half-hearted. Chisinau, having suddenly woken up, created a working group in the parliament to consider the problems concerning the special status of ATU Gagauzia - that is, did what had to be done 20 years ago - in a normal chunk, two years ago - in a fire order, and now it is already too late . The maximum that Kiev had on the Transnistrian direction was enough to block the border with Moldova and Transnistria for men with Russian passports . However, this half-measure is not enough to take the situation in the region under control, especially considering the absolute border crossing for a physically fit person. As for Moldova, it absolutely does not prevent the arrival of a sporty kind of men from 25 to 35 years old, who then depart for Transnistria. Moldova only detachedly states this as a fact.

With such passivity of the authorities of both states, the scenario of events in the region is quite obvious. Probably, the issue of creating the "Putin Corridor" will be resolved within a month, a maximum - one and a half. The western part of its arc will include the Odessa region, Transnistria and Gagauzia. The popular endorsement of annexation will be imitated according to the Crimean model.

As for Ukraine and Moldova, their governments are much more afraid of their own people than of all possible aggressors combined. This fact is especially clear in the example of Ukraine, where the creation of an armed regional militia could at least partly stabilize the situation even today. In Moldova as a whole the same picture - simply the situation has not yet reached the Ukrainian acuteness.

The fate of both countries looks quite predetermined: partition and annexation by neighbors; Against the backdrop of complete unpreparedness - and, frankly speaking - the complete reluctance of any international to assist them in preserving their independence. It is extremely unlikely that the emergence of a resistance movement in the annexed territories, at least in the near and medium term.

Probably Moscow in one way or another will push Bucharest to annexation of the right-bank part of Moldova after Gagauzia, and Chisinau - to not resist this, as less from the point of view of pro-European Chisinau elites, evil - in comparison with the prospect of Russian occupation. A similar scenario will probably be realized between the remnants of Ukraine and Poland. The participation of the two EU member states in the division of Moldova and Ukraine, even with the formal consent of the authorities of both countries partially occupied by Russia, will allow Moscow to turn Bucharest and Warsaw into accomplices and its international lawyers, which at least partially legitimizes Russian territorial acquisitions.

Thus, if we talk about realistic forecasts and not build castles in the air, hoping for the mythical help of the West, we have to state that this round was practically won by Russia. Moreover, if Moscow stops on these territorial acquisitions and does not go further to the West, but the Anschlusses of the spring of 2014 are likely to get away with it. And they will, albeit through the teeth, albeit unofficially, but de facto recognized by the world community and fixed for many decades, if not for centuries.

As for the further development of events, I recommend readers to turn to the last chapter of Karel Capek's novel "The War with the Newts": "The author talks to himself." A more complete and accurate long-term forecast is hardly possible.

UPD: 20/03/2014 Zhirinovsky demands that Russia not be limited to the Crimea: We do not need a border, we need to move on

Жириновский требует, чтобы Россия не ограничивалась Крымом: Нам не нужна граница, надо двигаться дальше

The leader of the Liberal Democratic Party of Russia Vladimir Zhirinovsky states that Russia will not stop at the annexation of the Crimea and must "move on".

He said this before voting on documents on the annexation of Crimea by Russia.

"Here the head of the committee says that the land border of the Crimea (with Ukraine) is fixed forever. You are mistaken, on the contrary, we do not need this state border. We need to move on, do "forever" early, "Zhirinovsky said, applauding the Russian deputies.

"If we talk for good, it means to abandon millions of Russians in the Donbas, Kherson, Nikolaev, Dnepropetrovsk, Lugansk, Zaporozhye, Odessa. A piece was taken, and those Russians are going to die, "he said.
