Britons need to understand that Russia is angered by what it sees as Western attempts to undermine it using Ukraine as a proxy.
Britain and the U.S. have spent billions over the past seven years methodically building up Ukraine’s armed forces, to the point where in Europe they were second only to Russia in terms of manpower and weapons.
The intention was to build up Ukraine’s armed forces so that they could be used as proxies to take on and ultimately weaken Russia.
The West and the U.S. in particular has a long history of doing this. Over the years it supported death squads from El Salvador to Nicaragua and Islamic militants in Afghanistan during the Soviet occupation and most recently in Syria.
Moscow recognised this, which was why they launched their Special Military Operation to pre-empt the potential threat Ukraine posed.
Western readers need to understand that their political leaders have been instrumental in creating the war in Ukraine. By extensively arming, training and equipping Ukraine’s armed forces with a view to using them as proxies against Russia, they effectively set them up for Russia’s pre-emptive strike.
Britain had a key but covert role in this just as it did when it secretly supported militants in Syria. Russia watched as the same process was unfolding across its border in Ukraine as Britain and the U.S. surreptitiously prepared the Ukrainian armed forces to take on Russia.
Even more galling is the fact that none of this was done with the approval of voters in the U.S. or Britain.
That’s why Russia is angry over an unnecessary war and why Moscow’s warnings are not empty threats. It recognises that the problem isn’t in Ukraine as such, but in London, Washington and Tel Aviv.
Russia means business and the West’s politicians need to take heed of the signals coming from Moscow. If they don’t we are heading toward a much wider and potentially catastrophic conflict.
Obviously no one in Britain or America voted for this but if a major conflict does transpire THEN WE NEED TO HOLD OUR LEADERS TO ACCOUNT. And that includes their accomplices in the MSM. Ed.
