From Basim: "Look at these statements, uttered within seconds of each other:
MATTHEWS: Nuance is all important. Comparisons to other leaders like Hitler don`t help me at all. I do see a pattern, though, not about Hitler but this concern about language. I think English is a good unifier. It doesn`t to be under the law. It`s a good unifier.
And I see the power of Russian and the Russian language in Ukraine and the way it has been used to re-gather the Old Soviet order in this case with Crimea coming back to Russia by plebiscite. My question is, do you think like that Hitler that Sudetenland will not be enough in this case, that Putin will try to get more of Ukraine where it`s Russian speaking and perhaps look for an easement between Moscow and Crimea through Ukraine?
