DISINFO: Russia may stop the Americanisation of Ukraine
SUMMARY
There is only one way to stop the Americanisation of Ukraine: to issue Russian passports to all Ukrainian citizens. This will be the end for the existence of the country.
RESPONSE
This is another Kremlin narrative that Ukraine is under the full control of the United States. Ukraine is a sovereign state whose territorial integrity and independence is recognised by both the United States and the European Union. The EU and the US do not control Ukraine. Ukraine itself has chosen the western course of development by joining the Eastern Partnership program for cooperation with the European Union, the Association Agreement with the EU, creating a free trade zone, liberalising the visa regime with the EU, developing the energy sector and maintaining stability, security in the region and much more. The United States also does not control Ukraine. US policy is aimed at implementing and strengthening a stable, democratic, prosperous and free Ukraine, more closely integrated into Europe and Euro-Atlantic structures. Moreover, Ukraine and its Western partners strongly oppose the issuance by Russia of passports to Ukrainians living in the occupied territories of Donbas.
