Vitaly, as much as I agree that Galicia is an irrelevant area that offers nothing for Russia (due to inbreeding over the centuries by the bydlo that live there, who have existed like dumbasses while being used as pawns by Austrians and Poles) - I strongly believe that denazification must deal with West Ukrainian nazis of whose failure ideology dominates the current ukronazi national idea. Ukraine can only exist as a viable state if that poison is removed.
At the start of the last century there was massive russophilia from galicians, many who saw themselves as Russians - concentration camps in WW1 in addition to the frantic work of Austrian and polish intelligence put a stop on it.
I agree with you that Nazism is a world poison. And the territory of Galicia, the main source of this poison.
I just think that this issue will not be easy to solve for several reasons.
The most important reason is economic. Russia does not need these territories. Why take territories that are economically unprofitable around your neck. Russia will have to restore and develop the liberated territories, which have simply degraded over the past 30 years. After all, Ukraine did not develop its territories in any way, but used the rich inheritance it inherited from the Soviet Union. I used to visit Ukraine regularly until 2014. I can tell you that everything is as it was under the Soviet Union, and remains the same, but over the years it has become dilapidated and decayed. But these liberated territories are very promising, because the whole territory of Ukraine, except for the Western part, has excellent agricultural black soil and a favorable climate. Here we simply take away historically ours and we will have to work with people, while with Western Ukraine the situation is different, in my opinion.
The second point, how do you propose to solve the issue with Western Ukraine? To exterminate people? Then how would we be better than them? After all, in Western Ukraine, everything is so overgrown with this terrestrial Nazism. It is in these territories that the descendants of the Banderites live, plus 30 years, constantly processing new generations of young people in the spirit of Nazism and Russophobia. All the last generations of young people, were taught by false history textbooks, false heroes and culture were propagandized. That is where the most active marches of SS descendants are. Even those people who are ethnically Russian, they no longer consider themselves to be Russians. And most people living there have more family ties with Poles, Hungarians than Russians.
In general, the issue is very complicated. I think, let the Poles, Romanians and Hungarians solve the issue of Western Ukraine. They help them so much now, so let them deal with them, with those whose kin killed the same Poles in the Volyn massacre, the same Hungarians. When the Ukro-Nazis lay claim to the exclusivity of their nation on these territories, over the Poles, Hungarians, and Romanians who live there, we will see how the latter will sing their songs.
