Each episode of the development of Russian-Ukrainian conflict and the situation in our country proves that salt was right: indifferent suffer the most and is doomed to deprivation of all the others.

In 594 BC BC citizens of ancient Athens as its Solon, the great reformer, in fact, formed the state foundations that we are accustomed to consider modern. After one and a half Millennium of Ukrainian society faces the same challenges that had to answer Solon - dissatisfaction oligarchic dominance, wealth gap between different segments of the population, lack of economic strategy, injustice and partiality of the judiciary, says Vitaly Portnikov for espreso.tv. The problem seemed to be virtually no unsettled. Salt dealt with them for the year of his stay in power - of course, it finally calmed the situation, but has created a solid Foundation national mutual understanding, allowing Athens to stand and fight with themselves, with each other and in collisions with numerous external enemies.

But, maybe, it was not only in the economic decisions of salt, and in an amazing act that caused the astonishment even of his contemporaries. Salt has decided to deny the civil rights of persons who have not shown interest in public life - that is, ordinary harmless inhabitants. Plutarch explained this law salty request of the Governor, so that every citizen “straight sided with the party that protects the good, the right thing, he shared with her of danger, helped her, and not waited without any risk, who will win”.

But the question is, in my opinion, is not in the right business. The question of indifference. He who believes that the situation will be resolved without him, who hopes that the story itself “taxied”, and the authorities will find the right solution, causes the collapse of not only his countrymen, but also themselves and their loved ones. The most obvious example - the inhabitants of the neighboring Russia, accustomed to believe his power and completely dependent on the whims of private capitals and their owners. Russian province asleep for a century, supplying Petersburg or Moscow soldiers for wars of conquest and for prisoners of the Gulag and spend every year experiments silent country. But only if the Russians? Let us not be deceived. Whether in the Crimea people desiring to join Russia before Putin's aggression? Obviously. They patiently waited for their “birthplace” will come to them on the tanks. If these people had the slightest bit of responsibility, at least the desire to protect their position, they would have to Putin's ill-fated adventure would be able to understand what the economic despair that will be. There would be no occupation of the Crimea because of the dependence of the Crimea from Ukraine would be understandable even to a schoolboy. And if the annexation it would not be the pursuit of the Russian pension and conscious willingness to make sacrifices and privations for the sake of life and death in another country. And Donbass? Were not inhabited indifferent cities and towns of Donbass? Have we still not heard recommendations - people are only interested in their financial well-being. If Ukraine will feed them - they are more in Russia want to will not. Unless all this is not synonymous with public indifference? The problem of Donetsk and Lugansk was that these cities - Athens before Solon, stuck in the past.

Each episode of the development of Russian-Ukrainian conflict and the situation in our country proves that salt was right: indifferent suffer the most and is doomed to deprivation of all the others. And the more indifferent the more suffering.
