Ukraine was very unlucky. The sociologist named the likely US president who would have stopped Putin.
Ukraine could have avoided the annexation of Crimea by Russia if John McCain had become the president of the United States instead of Barack Obama. This was stated by sociologist and professor Yevhen Holovakha. He believes that Obama was too soft, while McCain was a decisive personality and would not have given Putin any chances to seize Crimea.
John McCain is an American politician, a Republican known for his criticism of Barack Obama's administration and support for Ukraine.
Barack Obama is an American politician who served as the president of the United States from 2009 to 2017.

The special representative of the new US president for Ukraine and Russia, Keith Kellogg, stated that Trump would not allow a repeat of the Minsk agreements.
