> joining the eu i don't think you quite understand the situation here - eu is not the problem. ukraine can join eu if they please. anyone can join eu. i'm not sure if russian wants/needs eu, there are too many regulations - like food and drug regulations. the problem is nato. ukraine can not be a part of nato, instead, it should be rolled back to 1997 border.     > restoring the economic block that's irrelevant. economy is not primary concern for russia. it's security. preventing nato from encircling and destroying russia the way nato attacked and destroyed yugoslavia, and then serbia.     > uniting against china what would russia have against china? one of the few independently thinking non-us puppet states that are also very strong.
