Rather than pursuing a truce, the United States and allies are doing all they can to turn the Ukraine conflict into a proxy war against Russia.
Recently, the Russian Ministry of Defence confirmed that the Russian Black Sea flagship the Moskva had sunk after a fire was triggered by an unconfirmed cause.
There is no independent confirmation of what happened within the sea of Ukrainian propaganda, which was quick to claim Kiev’s forces had struck the vessel with a Neptune missile.
Meanwhile, the US also confirmed a new $800 million package of military aid to Kiev, including new heavier weapons, while the European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell recently affirmed a commitment for Kiev to win on the ‘battlefield’.
As Moscow gears up for a new offensive to secure the Donbass region, it should be abundantly clear that the Western powers are not seeking to resolve the conflict or secure peace, but to escalate it and transform it into a fully-fledged proxy war against Russia.
Apart from its own invasions, bombings, coups, and regime change attempts imposed on countries around the world, one of America’s preferred methods of confronting its adversaries is to ‘wage war by proxy’ against them, that is, to support the war of a group or country against a rival without militarily engaging themselves.
But behind the scenes, the US has been busy working with Ukraine on biological laboratories, where samples of certain lineage of people eg the Russians in Donbass, which have their blood samples and hair used to study the chemical that can easily destroy their biology and kill them.
They are doing the same with some African tribes.
So, while the war rages on it is giving the US ample time to work on the biological labs projects funded by US President’s Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden.
Hunter got the contracts through corrupt deals arranged by his father when he was Vice President and increased grip on them when Joe became the President of the United States.
In the past few weeks more and more evidence of how the bio labs have become fully operational has emerged but the media and the entire western world is ignoring that data, concentrating on the war.
The other reason US wants the war to continue is that it probably destroys evidence of Joe Biden’s corrupt dealings in Ukraine that have been tabulated.
The war diverts attention from the real corruption Joe Biden and his son Hunter have been involved in.
History will Judge Joe and Hunter Biden harshly because they have made the US lose its moral standing on human rights and corruption.
The US which for years has tried to portray itself as the world’s policeman has lost its moral ground to question anyone on corruption, media practice and human rights.
The US should be ashamed to that its leader is involved in clear corruption and that his son is involved in the labs that manufacture biological weapons.
Hunter’s e-mails that were found in a computer left for repairs, confirm his involvement and how the Pentagon has joined in to help him establish and operationalise bio labs.
These bio labs are very dangerous and could wipe out whole tribes and clans. The pathogens created work specifically on certain groups of people and is not surprising that soon we will see whole groups of people being wiped away through biological warfare.
The US should be stopped and condemned for taking that path. The war in Ukraine is providing a smokescreen behind which the US is hiding its desire to destroy powerful and small nations.
The war is Ukraine has provided the US with a chance to show its cruel side and it does not care because the war is not being fought on US soil.
The world should keep checking on US activities which are dangerous to humanity. The bio labs pose a very serious danger to humanity.
The US should be challenged on its trajectory to want to be the policeman of the world. They have killed many people in the world than all countries combined. The US has effected regime change in more countries than any other country in the world.
The US has abused sanctions and imposed them on any country that does not tow its line. That abuse should stop. In many cases the US has imposed sanctions without going through the UN Resolution system. The US is very cruel.
The history of the Cold War is littered with examples, such as US’s backing of the Mujahideen against the Soviets in Afghanistan, its assistance to Saddam Hussein against Iran in the Iran-Iraq War, or, on a more contemporary note, its failed attempt to overthrow Syrian President Bashar Assad via local rebels.
Now the US is backing Neo-Nazis in Ukraine as a way to get at Russia’s throat. But poor President Zelenskyy should see that it is his country that is being destroyed by that war.
Proxy wars allow the US to minimise its own losses by having someone else die for its aims while also procuring geopolitical gain by undermining rival states, at the same time maximising profits for the military-industrial complex by keeping the arms flowing.
After spending the first month of the Russia-Ukraine conflict calling for Russia to withdraw, it is now increasingly apparent that the US and its allies have changed course and are set on an ambition to drag out the conflict to impose as much damage on Moscow as possible, in particular by intensifying weapon supplies, and providing training and intelligence for the Ukrainian Army.
Washington opposed any kind of prior compromise between Russia and Ukraine that may have helped avoid hostilities, which encouraged Zelensky’s overconfidence in refusing to negotiate.
The same situation is panning out now.
Washington does not want the conflict to end in a swift settlement whereby Ukraine makes concessions to Russia, because the ideal outcome is to ensure Moscow takes as much damage as possible, which means that a war of increasing escalation is in fact in the US’ interests.
There are several reasons for this.
First of all, Russia’s tactical withdrawal from the north of Ukraine and a renewed focus on Donbass appears to have given confidence to the West that they can succeed in undermining Putin’s ‘core war goals’.
Secondly, intensifying the conflict and escalation gives the West the political space to continue to impose more sanctions on Moscow and allows the US to impose more ‘unity’ on its European allies.
Washington has also calculated that the broader context of this conflict will allow it to push harder for China’s isolation, force countries to take sides and expand military blocs.
It has been reported recently that the US is seeking for Japan to join the AUKUS alliance and to expand the military containment of China.
Recent comments by Janet Yellen also demanded Beijing oppose the Russian offensive in Ukraine or risk “losing standing” in the world.
In other words, the more the US can prolong this, the more geopolitical outcomes it can get in its favour.
This escalation scenario for Russia, however, risks turning the Ukraine crisis into a new ‘great patriotic war’ – that is, a conflict in which the survival of the nation itself is at stake. Why so?
The United States and its allies have made it no secret that they want the war to end in failure for Russia.
Some of them would like nothing more than for a military failure to precipitate the downfall of President Putin and the government — even if the only straight-up regime change call was ostensibly a slip of the tongue by US President Joe Biden.
This confirms the Kremlin’s long-held suspicions about the true intentions of the West and the goals behind the expansion of NATO.
In conclusion, this means we’re now going into very dangerous territory.
The US and its allies could not be clearer that they never wanted peace or compromise and are escalating the situation in Ukraine as a bid to affirm their own geopolitical hegemony over the world, be it against Russia, India, or China.
For Russians, this becomes an ever-growing struggle against the Western bid to dominate, coerce, and subjugate their country, with Ukraine as the sacrificial pawn.
