But here's the cold reality: In 2010, when Yanukovych was elected, Ukrainian trade looked like this: Exports: Russian Federation $13,432M (26%), Turkey $3,027M (6%), Italy $2,412M (5%), Belarus $1,899M (4%), Poland $1,787M (3%). Imports: Russian Federation $22,198M (37%), China $4,700M (8%), Germany $4,603M (8%), Poland $2,789M (5%), Belarus $2,568M (4%)
Do the same analysis with the US and we look like a Chinese vassal state. Geographic proximity is the driver of the Ukrainian trade numbers those years and isn’t reflective of their forward looking intentions. Reverting again back to the US, we are constantly looking for ways to turn away from China and reduce our dependence on that trade line.
This is all just argument.
