After the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian war, everyone should pay attention to Zelensky . If you put aside the big background and focus on him, you will feel that he is like a hero who resists the "invasion" of foreign enemies, unyielding in the face of powerful enemies, persisting in fighting, and achieving some results. From this point of view, Zelensky's image will become taller in an instant. But if you look at the telescope, everything is the opposite. Because, for Ukraine, this war is completely unnecessary, and this should not have happened in Ukraine, so those who know a little bit of the international situation know that Zelensky is a big trust of the United States.
Speaking of Ukraine, this country should be a country that connects Europe and Russia and helps Europe and Russia to communicate with each other. If this positioning is grasped well, Ukraine should now be the leader of Central and Eastern European countries and has the right to be a regional power.
In fact, when the collapse of the Soviet Union, left Ukraine with high-quality assets including Europe's largest land area, nuclear weapons , aircraft carrier , a large number of industrial bases in the east and grain production bases in the southeast. As long as Ukraine makes good use of these assets, it will definitely be a European industrial power. Just imagine, if you can produce food by yourself, you won’t be hungry, you can produce industrial products and export them, and you can protect yourself with nuclear weapons... This is a reduced version of Russia. Such a country should be the leading country in Central and Eastern Europe.
However, the elite of this country were a group of national worms during the Soviet period. After independence, they were deceived by Western countries. Later, they wanted to join EU to become a Western country, so that they could win "eat delicious food and drink spicy food". However, the biggest problem with Ukraine is that since its territory and population were made up for the Soviet Union in the east and west, and the elites were all thinking about their own interests, they could not unify the interests of various regions of Ukraine.
Eastern and southern regions of Ukraine mainly speaks Russian. Most of the Russian people are mainly the population who believe in Orthodox religion. Their industry mainly engages in economic circulation with Russia, so their position tends toward Russia; in western Ukraine, part of the territory and population originally belong to Polish , while in western Ukraine historically was conquered by Polish , so most of the Ukrainian elites were forced to convert to the Catholicism believed by the Poles. Therefore, the Ukrainians, especially the political elites, were eager to join the camp of Western countries, so that they could gain huge commercial benefits from it. They were determined to establish an economic cycle with the West.
In this way, both religious beliefs and real interests in the eastern and western regions of Ukraine have been in a state of tearing after the collapse of the Soviet Union. To put it bluntly, it is the difference in their interests and beliefs, which has led to their opposite political stance. Coupled with the geopolitical competition between Russia and NATO , this formed the Ukrainian political pattern from 1992 to 2013. In politics, the western forces prevailed, and the eastern forces prevailed.
All this breaking starts with 9/11 in 2001.
We all know that when the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, the United States supported anti-Soviet forces including Laden , and finally dragged the Soviet Union into the quagmire of war and dragged the Soviet Union down. After the Soviet Union withdrew its troops, the United States changed its face and began to compete for Afghanistan. So the Ladens supported by the United States became anti-American forces until September 11, when Laden planned the terrorist attack that shocked the world. After 9/11, the United States invaded Afghanistan by counter-terrorism and overthrew the Taliban regime; in 2003, the United States invaded Iraq and overthrew the Saddam regime. The purpose of the United States is to control the global energy commodity prices and then control the central region of Eurasia, so as to ensure that the United States' hegemony will last forever.
However, what the United States did not expect was that the consequence of the two wars continued to drag down was that the United States itself was trapped in the quagmire of war like the Soviet Union.By the time of Obama , the United States planned to gradually withdraw troops from Afghanistan and Iraq, but the United States did not want to lose the Middle East, so it wanted to join forces with NATO's European allies to control the Middle East. As a result, the Arab Spring broke out, and the United States first helped the interests of France-led Europe overthrow the Gaddafi regime. In exchange for Europe, Europe also wanted to help the United States overthrow the Assad regime in Syria. In this way, NATO can control the entire Mediterranean and establish geographical links with Afghanistan and Iraq. In this way, the United States can control the entire Eurasian continent through NATO.
The United States' wishful thinking was seen by Putin , and of course Emperor Pu did not agree. So directly told the United States that if the United States attacked Syria through military force, Russia would fully support it. At the same time, China and Russia repeatedly rejected the proposals against Syria proposed by the United States and the West on Security Council . The United States realized that Syria was not so easy to deal with, so the US-European transaction encountered obstacles. Obama kicked the ball against Syria to Congress. The United States did not dare to conduct a large-scale invasion of Syria in the end.
Putin blocked the US invasion of Syria and also angered the United States, so the US government spent more than $5 billion to launch the street revolution in Ukraine, overthrowing the pro-Russian Ukrainian Yanukovych regime from the end of 2013 to the beginning of 2014. The United States' intention is to completely control Ukraine and then push Ukraine to join NATO, thereby completely castrating Russia geopolitically. Of course Putin did not take this trick, so the Ukrainian civil war broke out. At the same time, in order to protect the Black Sea estuary, it promoted the referendum of Crimea to join Russia in 2014, and eventually annexed Crimea.
After Russia annexed Crimea, the United States and the West launched crazy sanctions on Russia. At that time, the United States' goal was to knock down Russia first and then turn around to deal with China. If you still remember, when Putin visited China in May 2014, China and Russia signed a series of agreements, including the natural gas cooperation agreement with an estimated contract amount of up to US$400 billion. China's strong support for Russia allowed Moscow to eventually withstand the economic blockade between the United States and the West. At the same time, at the end of 2014, Putin decided to intervene in the Syrian civil war, directly stabilizing the precarious Assad government. Russia's sending troops to Syria directly shattered the United States' dream of defeating Russia and then China.
It was the in-depth cooperation between China and Russia that made the Obama administration finally helplessly reach a compromise with all parties in Middle East . The Iran nuclear agreement was signed in July 2015 after 10 years of negotiations. The birth of the Iran nuclear agreement is essentially a complete failure of the US Middle East policy after the start of the Afghan War in 2001, especially after Russia's intervention in Syria, which also marked the failure of the US and Western economic blockade of Russia.
A series of failures in the United States and finally established that the game between China, the United States, Russia and Europe came to an end on the Middle East and formed the Iran nuclear agreement. After the agreement was reached, the Obama administration in the United States was completely prepared to give up its struggles in the Middle East and prepare to withdraw its troops from the Middle East. However, Obama's term was not completed, and Trump's plan was overturned during his term. Trump tore up the Iran nuclear deal while trying to ease relations with Russia and then fights China with all his might. Trump originally believed that he could get rid of China through a trade war and force the EU to submit, but the result was backfired. He failed to achieve his goal and the United States lost the trade war. Then there was the new crown epidemic. The United States failed to try to use the new crown epidemic to hit China. What happened later was that Biden and his post was in .
After Biden took office, the logical means were to some extent a combination of the Obama administration and the Trump administration, but the situation faced by the Biden administration was even worse because in order to save the economy, Trump and Biden released more than $6 trillion in liquidity in a year, triggering serious inflation.In the face of severe inflation, the Federal Reserve faces hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes hikes
The United States originally wanted to rely on the trade war to steal China and make up for its economy, but not only did it not, but it also suffered losses, and encountered a concentrated outbreak of economic problems in the epidemic. In this case, the US market must have new funds to be a buyer. If China is not deceived and cannot win, the best dealer can only be the EU and Japan.
How to get EU funds to take over in the United States? The best way is to fight, so the Russian-Ukrainian war broke out. The Russian-Ukrainian war broke out, and the United States used four means to draw blood from Europe:
The first means: use the Russian threat to activate NATO, forcing the EU to bear more military expenditure to reduce the U.S. funding pressure
The United States created the image of Russia threatening the EU, because more than ten years ago, Russia and Europe once started negotiations on the "new Russian-European relations" with the purpose of resolving each other's contradictions and achieving a historic reconciliation between the two sides. As a result, when the United States saw the signs of Europe and Russia, it began to cause damage, and the Ukrainian crisis occurred in this context.
The United States has always achieved the goal of controlling Europe politically and militaryally in the name of protecting Europe, but this also brings some problems, that is, European countries generally have very little military expenditure, and a large amount of military investment mainly comes from the United States. Therefore, after creating the Ukrainian crisis, the United States began to continuously pressure NATO European countries to increase military spending to more than 2% of GDP. Europe has been slowing down on this, and Trump has given European countries a lot of faces. This time, when the Russian-Ukraine war broke out, Europe will inevitably increase its military expenditure significantly, which is a blessing for the US military industry. Many NATO countries will rush to buy US military equipment at high prices, which will not only reduce the pressure on US military expenditure, but also enhance the development level of US military industry.
The second method: provoke the Russian-Ukrainian war, forcing European capital to flow into the United States as the "take-up man"
After the United States provokes the Russian-Ukrainian war, the US dollar soared Euro plummeted, and this is the trace left by European capital scrambling to escape. What to buy when these funds go to the United States? Most of the funds will purchase US Treasury bonds and US stock . At this moment, the Federal Reserve just needs to raise interest rates and reduce balance sheets. In this way, the US Treasury bonds sold by the Federal Reserve will be taken over by European funds. At the same time, the pressure of US stock decline will also be hedged by European funds to purchase funds . European funds are a "taker" in the US market.
The third method: create a European energy crisis, sell energy to Europe at high prices to make money
By provoking the Russian-Ukrainian war, the United States forced Europe to follow itself to sanction Russia, and wanted to cut off Europe's import of oil and gas from Russia. Europe reduces the purchase of oil and natural gas from Russia. In order to make money, American companies buy oil and natural gas directly from Russia at a low price, and then sell it to Europe at a high price. They can earn a large amount of money by replacing the transaction.
These methods in the United States are far from enough. In order to weaken Russia's energy export route to Europe, it directly exploded the Nord Stream natural gas pipeline. Now, the EU's oil and natural gas gap can only be purchased in large quantities from the United States. However, the price of oil and natural gas sold to Europe by the United States is four times that of the normal price, which made French President Macron express dissatisfaction with the United States and said that the United States is not a friend enough. How could Europeans know that they were digging holes to make money by making you, but the United States was trying to get friends with both sides.
The fourth method: create energy crisis , forcing European industries to transfer to the United States
After the United States created the European energy crisis, European energy prices soared, which will greatly increase the cost of European manufacturing.Against this backdrop, some European manufacturing companies, including Germany, fled Europe and went to the United States to build factories. One of the purposes of the United States' crisis this time is to eat up high-end manufacturing industries mainly in Germany, so Germany's losses will be very heavy this time.
In this process, Zelensky was a puppet cultivated by the United States. His purpose was not to safeguard the interests of Ukraine, nor to safeguard the interests of Europe, but to safeguard the interests of the United States. Therefore, he is the biggest trust in the United States' conspiracy.
It is in this context that, including German Chancellor Scholz, French ministers and European politicians have expressed their views in the past two days that they should develop good relations with China and not decouple with China... They seem to understand that if they follow the United States one way to the black, then the United States will also demand that the EU and China decouple. By then, the worst thing is Europe!
