Dr Jon Stanley fellow writes<\/a> that such a treaty between Russia and Ukraine would guarantee the safety of both communities – Ukrainian and Russian – in Ukraine and the territorial integrity of the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A possible model could also include “the creation of a Sovereign Base Area in Crimea, like ours in Akrotiri and Dhekelia. It would allow for equal economic and social rights to Ukrainians and Russian citizens but maintain Crimea as a sovereign military base. it would otherwise be free to engage with Ukraine fully on a civil basis.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dr Stanley writes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n This model works, and it had kept the peace [in Cyprus] since 1960. The 1974 intervention was in fact as exercise of that guarantor power by Turkey. All of this exists as a precedent and has proven to have worked.<\/p> The Treaty of Guarantee model would solve all the issues Russia has voiced concern over publicly.\u00a0<\/p> We in the West should consider this approach as a matter of urgency to save lives.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n Read the full article here <\/a>at The Mallard<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Bow Group is not funded by special interest groups and we are beholden to no government or party.\u00a0 We are grassroots funded, and your donations make a huge difference to our ability to continue our work.
