I would have thought that a monarchy/paleo list would support the restoration of the four empires in Europe, whose dissolution by American-UK-French progressives in 1919 has brought 95 years of bloodshed.
I don’t think the goal is restoration of the empires that, one way or another, dissolved a long time ago. I would obviously prefer the world order where countries big and small gravitate in some reasonable patterns to imperial nations; but it cannot be the exact same world as in 1914. Russia, for example, suffered near 100 years of Soviet artificial selection, with the resulting loss of national identity, sense of national purpose, and, importantly to the topic on hand, loss of the ability to attract other nations to its imperial sphere. The Ukrainian nation, on the other hand, — a mere fantastical project 100 years ago, — has now been born and has shown an ability to seek its own spot in the community of nations. We see how both Poland and Ukraine, bitter enemies 50 years ago now have found mutual respect and are in the process of forming a political and economic block to the Germany’s East. That would not have been possible even a short while ago. Nations evolve.
The best for both peoples, the Russian people and the Ukrainian people is to live independently and in peace. The national project for Russia should be a complete repudiation of its Soviet past, and acceptance of its loss of the Cold War, so that it becomes a trade partner rather than a constant expansionist threat. The imperial ambition of the Russian Federation today is a dangerous anachronism, which, moreover, goes back not to the Russian Empire but to the worse instincts of the USSR. It might work for the RF in Asia, but then it would not be int he national interest of the Russian people who — what’s left of them, — culturally belong to Europe.
