Ah yes because famously when government grabs power under some pretex they immediately relinquish it when the pretext no longer applies. Just like all the powers US government granted itself during the war on terror were scrapped.

Relinquishing seems obvious, yes, especially considering their ambition on joining the EU.

There is no realistic chance of Ukraine joining the EU and everyone knows that.

Not in the near future.

It's not going to happen, that's the reality. Frankly, the way things are going, I'm not expecting EU to be around too much longer either.

Your expectations will not be fulfilled. Don't be too disappointed!

It's only been a month into the economic war and here's the state of things already. My expectations are already being fulfilled.

Then you are easy to please.
Living in the EU I can assure you, it is "still around".

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

around for how long is the question

[–] Kulun@mander.xyz -1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pretty short, right?
Whilst your "expectations are already being fulfilled", the EU is still around.

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

My expectations are that the economic crisis will drive civil unrest in EU bloc that will ultimately cause countries to leave it due to inherent disagreements. EU already fucked over countries like Greece during the 2008 crash, and we can expect more of the same during this crash.

It's pretty irrational to take the expectation of future events as fulfilled, don't you think?

[–] yogthos@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

What's irrational is to ignore what's happening in front of your eyes. Dissolution of EU is a process that's going to take years to come to fruition. However, the seeds of this process have already been planted.
