I think it’s hope for what you suggest, but any plan beyond that is very fluid.

Pleasure as always having the discussion with you.
Crimea is dependent upon a water supply from the mainland so Ukraine holds the upper hand here. Provided the US doesn't fall prey to more extreme elements in the Democrat and Republican parties, Ukraine should be ok. But I agree mainland Europe especially Germany should step up more.
