The Ukrainian war is the largest geopolitical event since the end of the Cold War. It broke the tranquility of Europe and pushed the world to the edge of nuclear war. U.S. officials clamored to launch a "decapitation operation" against Moscow to physically remove Russian President Vladimir Putin. Foreign Minister Lavrov warned the United States to "follow the three countries."
Western politicians and media accused Putin of launching a war "unprovoked", and US President Biden called Putin a "butcher".
Putin made it clear why Russia suddenly attacked its "fraternal neighbors" in a televised speech on March 16. "Ukraine and the NATO alliance have arrived, and their offensive weapons have been set up at our doorstep." "We have no choice but to defend ourselves," and "we will never let Ukraine become a bridgehead for aggression against our country."
Three feet of ice does not last in a day. In its more than 240 years of history, the United States has only been at war for 16 years. After the end of the Cold War, the United States launched the Iraq war, Afghanistan war, Syrian war and Libya war. Jeffrey D. Sachs, a world-renowned economics professor in the United States, commented on the "Consortium News" website that "the war in Ukraine is the climax of the 30-year plan of the American neoconservative movement."
The neoconservative movement emerged in the 1970s. The main views of neoconservatism are "power politics" and "the law of the jungle". The United States must maintain military dominance in every region of the world and must confront rising regional powers that may one day challenge U.S. global or regional dominance, the most important of which are Russia and China. To this end, U.S. military forces should be pre-deployed in hundreds of military bases around the world, and the United States should be ready to lead a war if necessary. For those who overestimate their capabilities, the United States should speak with its fists rather than its tongue. The United Nations will be used by the United States only when it is useful to the United States.
The standard bearer of American neoconservatism is Paul Wolfowitz. He served as Deputy Secretary of Defense of the United States. He explicitly suggested in 1991 that the United States would lead regime change operations in Iraq, Syria, and other former Soviet allies.
Professor Sachs believes that before NATO's eastward expansion under President George W. Bush became the official US policy in 2008, neoconservatives supported NATO's eastward expansion to Ukraine. They believe that Ukraine's joining of NATO is the key to safeguarding the United States' global dominance.
This American scholar believes that after the collapse of the Soviet Union, both the United States and Russia should seek a neutral Ukraine as a cautious buffer zone. Neoconservatives, by contrast, want American “hegemony.” The West's planning of a color revolution in Ukraine is not only a prelude to Ukraine's accession to NATO and the European Union, but also a prelude to the expansion of Western liberal hegemony.
Newland is the best neoconservative. In addition to serving as the Bush administration's ambassador to NATO, Nuland also served as President Obama's assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs and participated in the overthrow of Ukraine's pro-Russian Prime Minister Yanukovych. Now she is Biden's deputy secretary of state, formulating U.S. policy on the war in Ukraine.
Professor Sacks bluntly stated that the neoconservative view is based on an overwhelmingly false premise: the military, financial, technological and economic advantages of the United States enable it to issue orders in all regions of the world. This is a position that is both profoundly arrogant and profoundly contemptuous of evidence.
Since the 1950s, the United States has suffered defeat in almost every regional conflict in which it has been involved. However, in the "Ukraine War", neoconservatives provoked a military confrontation with Russia by expanding NATO, despite Russia's strong opposition. why is that? The American professor said that because they firmly believe that Russia will be defeated by US financial sanctions and NATO weapons.
Regarding the prospects of the Russia-Ukraine war, Professor Sachs said that the most likely outcome of the current battle is that Russia will conquer a large area of Ukraine, which may make Ukraine a landlocked country. He reminded Europe: If Europe had any insight, it should distance itself from America's collapsing foreign policy.
Ukrainian President Zelensky visited Washington , and the United States promised to significantly increase military aid. Professor Sacks warned that the knock-on effects of committing to dangerous escalations to restore America's faded military glory could be devastating. How does
solve the Ukraine crisis? This American wise man suggested: Rather than risk such a catastrophe, the real solution is to end the neoconservative illusions of the past 30 years, bring Ukraine and Russia back to the negotiating table, and commit NATO to stop eastward expansion into Ukraine and Georgia .
