PEACE OFFERING

Let's make Ukraine neutral territory, with its neutrality guaranteed IN ADVANCE by the United Nations.

We need to protect ALL of Ukraine's sovereignty, because Ukraine gave up its atomic bombs in exchange for ALL of Ukraine's borders being acknowledged by Russia, et al. Therefore, Ukraine's borders INCLUDE CRIMEA.

The UN should supervise ALL of the Ukrainian elections, so that there is no possibility of other countries interfering with the internal politics of the Ukraine. Any federalization of Ukraine will be done using elections supervised by the United Nations.

All of the gas and oil pipelines and power lines running through the Ukraine will be considered to be neutral and available for use by any country with electricity, gas, or oil to sell to Europe.

Russia owes some reparations to Ukraine. It seems like building the mythical bridge to the Crimea is an excellent win-win reparation.

This way, the UN will be pre-authorized to protect the Ukraine, so the only way to stop the UN from immediately stopping any cross border raids is to ask the security council NOT to act as a result of a particular event.

Without a need for a military, Ukraine can use all of its resources to clean up the mess caused by the mythical Russians.

There is no reason that this solution can not also work for Syria. It that case, reparations will be in the form of a German engineered four lane Autobahn from Damascus to Baghdad, with rest stops for every historical site. Eventually, this road could go all the way to Persia.

A road would be good, as this might be the last time that anyone can tour the middle East while it still has bazaars in the grand old fashion.
