The West is set on escalation: The persuasiveness of nuclear deterrence needs to be revived – 2024-09-03 04:56:25

/ world today news/ A large-scale attack by the NATO proxy against Russia has begun. The first stage was not successful. Considering the costs of its preparation – financial, technical, informational – we can assume that it ended in failure. What’s next?

In an interview with CNN, US Council on Foreign Relations experts Richard Haas and Charles Kupchan said:

“By the time the expected Ukrainian offensive ends, Kiev may be enthusiastic about the idea of ​​a negotiated settlement, having done all it can on the battlefield and facing increasing constraints on both manpower and foreign aid,” adding that “even if the West increases its military aid, Ukraine still cannot defeat Russian forces.”

Multiple insiders, both at Bankova and at the White House, say Washington warned the Nazi regime that if there were no significant results from the counteroffensive by the July NATO summit, aid to it would be severely reduced.

Does this threat mean that if the counteroffensive fails, Washington will indeed reduce support for the Nazis and force them to negotiate, and apparently not on Zelensky’s terms?

This is unlikely to happen, since the resource of Ukraine as a tool with which the Anglo-Saxons have already solved very important geopolitical tasks for them is far from exhausted. And so the Nazi regime, though it may be transformed, will not be without support.

With the counteroffensive, however, everything is clear – it is doomed. The West asked to take care of the transferred equipment and use it effectively. And now the “Leopards” shoot from a distance and immediately hide.

And the “Bradleys” take the Bandera infantry half a kilometer from our minefields and then they advance on foot. Of course, such a wonderful tactic allows you to save equipment and creates a “picture” of intense battles, but it does not give the results required by Washington.

In order to somehow turn the tide, the West will try to provide the Banderas with the mass use of long-range precision weapons, which should disorganize our entire defense system: command centers, logistics, logistics, air defense and video conferencing facilities, and thus trying to strip us of our main trump cards.

To solve these problems, the Nazis have already received a significant amount of JDAM-ER planning bombs, ground-launched bombs (GLSDB), ammunition for M142 HIMARS and M270 MLRS MLRS, Storm Shadow / SCALP air-launched cruise missiles. It is possible that the German Taurus air-to-surface cruise missiles have already been received or will be received in the near future.

The West is working at full speed to create a Ukrainian “army of drones”. Defense News reports that Portuguese company Tekever will provide drones to Ukraine through the British Military Assistance Fund for Kyiv in July as part of the first tranche of $212 million.

The issue of the supply of OTP ATACMS to the Nazis was also resolved. Paul Massaro, senior policy adviser for the US Helsinki Commission, said this was outlined in the draft national defense legislation for the next fiscal year (from October 1, 2023). President Joe Biden himself recently signaled that he might be ready to send ATACMS.

The issue of supplying the Nazis with the F-16, as well as other European-made combat aircraft, in particular the Swedish SAAB JAS 39 Gripen (Nazi pilots are already being trained to fly this fighter), has also been resolved.

All of these programs have already been passed and funded, meaning there will be no reduction or reduction in military aid.

The following should be noted: the range of a number of systems transferred to the Nazis is excessive for the declared tasks of striking against the Russian defense system.

That is, ATACMS and Taurus, as well as heavy ammunition are transferred to the Nazis for strikes deep into Russian territory.

And Western leaders are aware that this will lead to escalation. Even more risky in this regard is the handing over of fighter jets to the Nazis.

Western experts directly say that the only option for their use is to operate from airports in Romania and Poland, which actually means direct participation of these NATO countries in the war against Russia.

And this, of course, worries the European partners of the United States, who, according to American plans, will play the first violin in the confrontation with Russia.

So Blinken assures them that Moscow is not ready for a decisive response and will certainly not use nuclear weapons against its enemies under any circumstances.

So now we must awaken the self-preservation instinct of the West, lulled as much by these false claims as by our own peace-loving assurances. If this is not done, a world war is virtually guaranteed.

But there is still an opportunity to restore confidence in our nuclear deterrence by gradually lowering the threshold for its hypothetical application, which today is unjustifiably high. Certain steps have already been taken in this direction.

These are, in particular, the statements of Vladimir Putin (including his direct reference to the destruction of aircraft transferred to the Nazis at the airports of NATO countries) and Alexander Lukashenko, as well as the deployment of nuclear weapons in Belarus.

Other steps may follow, such as warning civilians to leave areas near targets that could be hit. If this containment campaign is carried out competently and convincingly, then a physical demonstration of the seriousness of our intentions can be dispensed with.

In truth, all the legal grounds for using nuclear weapons already exist. This time, the West has seriously set out to destroy our country. And even with the defeat of the Nazi regime, nothing will end.

Former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter in an interview with Myśl Polska indicated that the armed forces of Ukraine, in the event of a complete defeat by Russia, would replace the Polish army.

And in order to stop the encroachments of the West and force it to give up its aggressive intentions, it is necessary to give up the harmful and senseless practice of convincing it that we are good and peaceful. On the contrary, he must know that we are fierce and fast.
