American Advisor Says the Ukraine Wants to Go Back to 1991 Borders, Refuses to Negotiate

by Chris Black

They keep telling us Russia is trying to “genocide” the Ukraine, by conquering the whole country and killing everyone.

But then they will just casually admit that this is a massive hoax.

If someone other than a military advisor said this, they would be condemned and banned from the internet.

Ukraine will refuse to negotiate with Russia and fight to return to its 1991 borders – established following an independence vote during the collapse of the Soviet Union – according to Dan Rice, an American citizen advising the commander in chief of Kiev’s armed forces.

 

In an interview with CNN’s Erin Burnett on Tuesday, Rice appealed to Western states for additional arms shipments to Ukraine, adding that while the country desperately needs air defense systems and aircraft, it has no interest in diplomacy with Moscow.

 

“[Russia is] trying, in my opinion, to get to the negotiating table, to try to go back to the 2014 lines,” Rice claimed. “Ukraine won’t have it. Ukraine wants all of their land back, back to the ‘91 lines.”

Ukraine’s 1991 borders would include four formerly Ukrainian provinces – Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson and Zaporozhye – as well as Crimea, all of which have voted to join the Russian Federation in a series of referendums. Crimea’s was held in 2014 soon after the ‘EuroMaidan’ revolution ousted Ukrainian President Victor Yanukovich, while the other provinces voted to leave Ukraine last month.

Despite Rice’s assessment of Moscow’s position, the Kremlin has made clear that it has no intention of reversing the referendums, with Russian President Vladimir Putin recently stating that while he is prepared to negotiate with Kiev, “the choice of the people in Donetsk, Lugansk, Zaporozhye and Kherson will not be discussed.”
