4. When this is all over... either 60 days from now or 6 months...

I predict a smaller Ukraine, but a Ukraine with EU membership and a NATO application in process...

I see international investment and a thriving nation rebuilding and ex-pats moving back home to be a part of it.

Unlike many here... I've actually BEEN to Russia and Ukraine.

There has always been a divide. Western Ukraine has always felt more European and East Ukraine has always felt like Russia.

There might be blue hats in a DMZ for a year... but treaties will be signed, Russia will pay Ukraine for pipelines running across the country and in ten years, Ukraine will be in better shape that ten year AGO.
