Bret Stephens 去乌克兰四天后写的一篇感想，纽时文章链接

在这儿：

Opinion | What I Learned in Ukraine - The New York Times (nytimes.com)

抄一段在这儿：

“I learned that Ukrainians aren’t likely to trade sovereign territory for Western security assurances, much less for some kind of armistice deal with Moscow. They tried the former in the 1990s with the Budapest Memorandum, in which they surrendered the nuclear arsenal on their soil to Russia for the sake of toothless guarantees of territorial integrity. They tried the latter with the equally toothless Minsk agreements after Russia’s first invasion in 2014. The goal of Western policy should be to provide Ukraine with the military means they need to win, rather than to pressure Ukraine into again bargaining away its rights to sovereignty and security for the sake of assuaging our anxieties about Russian escalation.”

Bret 小伙说在从波兰去 Kyiv 的火车上，车厢门内挂着一个招牌，上书““Be Brave Like Ukraine.”

战区的人对非战区的来访者的心理状态还是了解的，^_^。

• 是，绥靖政策对强人政治的 SS 基本上没用。By essence，强人需要树立外敌，能武力外扩则是更上选择 :-) -papyrus- ♂ (592 bytes) () 07/24/2023 postreply 04:19:44

• 对于独裁者，在任何领域的妥协，和解，谈判，协议，合作都会导致独裁势力的上升和进一步得寸进尺。在彻底失败之前，他们不会停。 -咲媱- ♀ (0 bytes) () 07/24/2023 postreply 06:02:42

• 是。事情至此，“更多炮弹导弹子母弹”。支持乌克兰打X挺的，^_^。咲媱周二开心。 -文革传人- ♂ (0 bytes) () 07/25/2023 postreply 01:32:03
