This is such a sensible area, geopolitically speaking.
Even thought it is the second time an accident happens with a Malaysian airlines's plane, it is too much of a coincidence that the plane went down in the Ukraine-Russia border.
Right now, everything is really messy. People are not sure what really happened and there's a lot of speculation in the air.
Let's imagine that it really was Russia who putted down this airplane. Where does that leave us?
If this Russia-Ukraine's situation didn't cross the line already for some, they've just crossed the line infinite times
We all have been hearing about 'sanctions'. Just yesterday a notification popped on my phone: "U.S. Increases sanctions against Russia" ... Well, this isn't, for certain, enough. I think if we weren't, every and each on of us is aware of that fact right now. It is not enough.
Some of you are probably asking yourselves "okay, Captain Obvious, if the most soft power move doesn't work, what do you want?"
I say we go harder on the punishment. No, I'm not referring to hard power, of course, that would be a not smart kamikaze move that would provoke a WWIII.
I'm talking about isolating Russia. Cut off diplomatic, economic, every single relation with Russia.
CNN confirmed right this instance that the plane was mistaken with an Ukrainian military plane.
Well.. It isn't speculation anymore. My guts were right.
We live in a world where interdependence is a reality. We all depend on each other mutually in so many ways. That leaves us, in our consciences, a weight, a pressure, a feeling that consumes us: the feeling that it is one of our responsibilities find a solution for this huge problem.
