   Civilly, Russia would only at most be saying to the Ukraine: "You can't have   
   me,   
   if you're going to be in the EU." As the EU would at most only be saying, "you   
   can't be in the EU, if you're going to be in Free Association with Russia.

   the   
   other.  It would not come to war.  NATO and the Donbass are issues of war.   
      
   If Cuba was letting Russians put their military in its country, it is probable

   Donbass and the Ukraine should be in Free Association.
