On June 30, Latvian President Levitz warned at the NATO summit: If Russia wins on the Ukrainian battlefield, it will be regarded by China as an "example for launching attacks" and will "encourage" China Similar operations are underway in the Asia-Pacific region.
Levitz’s remarks were intended to emphasize that Russia cannot be allowed to win. NATO must help Ukraine defeat Russia. The so-called “China may take similar actions”, although it is not stated explicitly, is generally believed to refer to the Taiwan Strait issue.
The dispute between Ukraine and Russia is an act of war between countries and should be resolved at the international level. However, the Taiwan Strait issue is only China's internal affairs. This is also the general consensus of most countries in the world. I won't bother the West too much. No trouble. The President of Latvia compared the conflict between Russia and Ukraine to the Taiwan Strait issue and tried to internationalize the Taiwan Strait issue, which is an imperialist act of interfering in China's internal affairs. The Latvian President's statement is purely ambitious and evil-minded.
The Western media has always been the mouthpiece of the Americans and has never cared about the historical truth. The Biden administration has been messing around, verbally recognizing the historical significance of the "China-U.S. Joint Communiqué", but in action it has frequently tried to alienate the Taiwan issue, making the international community pay less attention to the issue. The perception of the relationship between mainland China and Taiwan has led to misunderstandings and also given hypocritical rhetoric to careerists.
The answer to the political purpose of the Latvian president’s remarks must be found in the country’s geography and history.
Latvia is located in northeastern Europe. It is a very wealthy country per capita and one of the three Baltic countries. It has a population of more than 1.8 million and an area of more than 60,000 square kilometers. It is similar to Lithuania , Estonia , Russia, Belarus borders . Historically, Latvia was once one of the republics of the Soviet Union. It became independent in 1991, and then integrated into the global system and achieved great economic development.
A small country like Latvia borders Russia. It can be said that it is Europe's frontline facing Russia. Facing such a huge neighbor, it is inevitable to feel fear. Therefore, Latvia's political appeal is to hope that NATO can help Ukraine repel the Russian army. Being small does not prevent the country from having great ambitions. Using the power of the United States and NATO to promote the disintegration of the Russian Federation is the country's ultimate goal.
That’s why Levitz made such radical remarks. The reason why we mention China and target China even if we fabricate lies is to show our loyalty to the United States. After all, the will of the United States represents the will of NATO.
Both Latvia and Lithuania border Russia. At the same time, they are both political vassals of the United States. They obey the will of the United States and adhere to the foreign policy of distant relations and close attacks. They hope to use the power of the United States to make Russia, this huge neighbor, disappear from Europe. .
But the plots of Latvia and Lithuania are destined to not succeed, because the United States itself is already in internal and external difficulties. Neither the national finances nor the American people will allow the Biden administration to intervene in the Russia-Ukraine war at this time. Moreover, Russia is not a small country, regardless of whether it is a conventional war. Whether it is nuclear war or , the United States can pay an equally heavy price. Therefore, even if the United States knows the political intentions of these small countries, it will never do something stupid like challenging Russia's bottom line. If the United States had the ability to easily defeat Russia, the Russia-Ukraine war would have ended long ago and would not have been dragged on until now.
In addition, the President of Latvia said that Ukraine must win in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, but I am afraid it will be difficult to do so. Currently, Russia has shifted to a defensive posture on the Ukrainian battlefield, whether it is the withdrawal of troops from Snake Island or Putin agrees. Sweden and Finland have joined NATO, which shows that Russia is no longer eager to attack, but is preparing for a long war. The timely retreat of the army means that Putin has the determination to win no matter how long the fight lasts.
But time is NATO's biggest enemy. The United States simply cannot afford it. Biden 's support rate in the United States is too low. The Democratic Party's defeat in the mid-term elections is almost certain. When the Republicans occupy the majority of the House of Representatives, everything will happen. If it goes against Biden, then the U.S. government will face the dilemma of "decisions cannot leave Washington" and lose all political initiative. It is conceivable that if NATO loses the support of the United States, it will also lose the ability to jointly fight against Russia.
Britain, another "anti-Russian vanguard" in NATO, was also upset by the domestic Scottish referendum. In addition, Northern Ireland and EU were disconnected, as well as inflation and caused people's livelihood and economic problems. Since the UK cannot protect itself, it will be even more difficult to influence the situation in Ukraine.
As for France and Germany, if they are unable to solve the energy shortage problem for a long time, they will naturally move closer to Russia. Therefore, Russia has a winning chance and is naturally not in a hurry.
Regardless of the outcome of the Russo-Ukrainian war, Latvia has completely offended Russia. As a neighbor, this tendency to make decisions that add insult to injury will not only fail to make Latvia safer, but will make this small country more dangerous. After all, the Russians are not If you will tolerate these bad neighbors, you will definitely make them pay the price for their words and deeds in the future.
As for the Taiwan Strait issue, it is not the turn of these foreign forces to dictate. Return is a historical trend. Any force that tries to stop it is a mantis trying to stop it. Not to mention the United States, even the allied forces of the Korean War 17 could not shake the Chinese People's Protection Agency. The iron will to defend the country.
Latvia believes in the imperialist military hegemony of the United States and will definitely receive a fair evaluation from history. A mere small country that goes to extremes in the political struggle of multi-party big powers, attempts to push the envelope and pursue political interests that are not in line with its national status will eventually be punished as it deserves. punish.
At this NATO summit, the West jointly released a strategic report. In addition to describing Russia as the "primary threat," China was also mentioned 14 times, which is enough to show that China's peaceful rise is a thorn in the side of NATO member states. , a thorn in the flesh, especially in the speeches of American politicians. If there is no mention of China in any sentence, it is as if they cannot speak. It is conceivable that the United States will instigate more countries to oppose China in the future.
The international situation is changing rapidly, and there are many challenges on the road to national rejuvenation. This may be the meaning of the changes in a century.
To make correct decisions, we cannot just stick to appearances. Faced with the radical remarks of some clowns, we cannot be carried away by anger, maintain our own rhythm, and we will surely achieve our goals steadily.
