The famous American columnist said that the West never wanted to let Putin step down and did not want to see Russia disintegrate.
The famous American columnist Thomas Friedman , the one who wrote "The World Is Flat", has a statement about Putin, representing some of the views of Western liberals. He said that the Western elites never wanted Putin to step down and did not want to see Russia disintegrate.
Because Russia is a big country, spanning 9 time zones, there are thousands of nuclear warheads that need to be controlled in Russia, and there are hundreds of experienced nuclear weapons designers. Nuclear weapons silos are available from east to west, from south to north, everywhere. If Russia disintegrates, who will ensure the safety of these nuclear weapons?
Russia has a large number of mafia, drug dealers and cyber criminals. If these people buy nuclear weapons, it will be a huge threat to neighboring countries. Even if they don't plan to use it, they don't have the technology to keep nuclear weapons, the final result may still be unimaginable.
In addition, there are many common dilemmas in the world that mankind needs cooperation, such as carbon emissions, food security, energy security, climate change, epidemic prevention and anti-epidemic issues. The demand for human cooperation is far greater than the need for confrontation. Under these dilemmas, a complete, smooth Russia is in the interests of most people.
can stabilize Russia's strong leader. It was originally something people would like to see, and this person is Putin. In fact, Putin was chosen by the Russians themselves, and it would be enough for the Russians to be willing. Putin can close the door and play with his own, and has nothing to do with people from other countries in the world.
But Putin chose to fight, so there is a situation where both sides are uncomfortable and both sides are in a difficult situation. But the elites still realize that if Putin stepped down, there will be more problems facing the world. So the best way is to hope to find a way to negotiate, and both sides can withdraw from the war with decent sympathy.
There are a lot of problems in this world. Thank God if you can stay unchaos. If you can cooperate, you will burn the fragrance.
