After British Foreign Secretary Teras came to Moscow to hold talks with Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict did not cool down, but intensified.
In the past two days, there have been at least 3 things worth noting about the United States, Russia, Ukraine.
1, tough shouts from Biden. On February 10, yesterday, U.S. President Joe Biden issued a warning to U.S. citizens remaining in Ukraine, saying that U.S. citizens must go right away, that the U.S. is facing one of the most powerful militaries in the world, not ordinary extremist groups, and that things could get very crazy.
The American reporter asked Biden when will he send troops to rescue American citizens? Biden's answer was cut-and-thin, stressing that once the United States and Russia exchanged fire, a world war would break out, and "we are in a very different world."
During this time, on the Ukraine crisis, the US media and White House politicians have a "fear that things are not big enough" posture, Bloomberg, the Washington Post and CNN will say that Russia is preparing to invade Ukraine.
On February 10, NBC again said that based on reliable intelligence gathered by the United States, the Russian military is likely to "fully invade" Ukraine.
Russia said that the relevant us rhetoric is false.
2, Bright sword from Russia. On February 10, Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service said Ukraine was openly preparing for war at the instigation of NATO, and hundreds of tons of weapons were being shipped from Europe to Ukraine. In addition, almost all of the combat-capable Ukrainian armed forces were deployed to Donbass, including militants and mercenaries from other countries.
Russia stressed that from beginning to end, the Russian army had no plan to "invade" Ukraine, everything was carefully laid out by the United States, and under any circumstances, the war was not in the interests of Russia and Ukraine.
While sending out the signal that "Russia has no intention of making enemies with Ukraine, and the United States is fanning the flames behind it", Russia is also preparing for war. Russia stressed the need for Russia to take defensive measures in the face of Ukraine's "armed forces" move with NATO.
Now Russia, a bit like the commander of the light rod who fought to the end, after some competition, the United States not only did not restrain, but the attitude became more and more tough, Putin's side of the available cards are less and less, Biden's side is more and more fierce.
3, statements from the UK and the EU. On February 10, after the British and Russian foreign ministers concluded their meeting, Russia issued a statement in which Russia said that It would not allow Britain to take unfriendly moves, and Britain's provocation of conflict devalued the value of The Russian-British dialogue.
Russia stressed that Britain's act of providing Ukraine with lethal weapons is extremely destructive and may cause Ukraine to misjudge the situation, which will lead to an escalation of the conflict in Donbass.
Lavrov warned Britain that London must stop its attempts to interfere in Russia's internal affairs and pressure Russia's neighbors, and if Britain launches "anti-Russian sanctions" against Russian companies and individuals, Russia will launch a tough response.
Unusually, the EU has not regarded Russia as an object of "abandonment", and EU member states that do not want the situation to heat up, such as Hungary and Germany, have been calling on Russia and Ukraine to "sit down and talk", rather than impulsively and aggressively draw their swords at each other.
On the surface, the attitude of the United States is to "maintain peace in Eastern Europe", but in fact, the United States has repeatedly handed over weapons for Ukraine, instigated Zelensky to show his sword to Putin, and asked Japan to cooperate with NATO to exert pressure on Russia, all of which show that Biden is really a "master screenwriter".
Seemingly inconspicuous details can sometimes reveal meaningful signals, if Biden did not step by step, one link after another to design traps for Russia and Ukraine, how can the Russian-Ukrainian confrontation go to a sword fight?
The Gallup poll in the United States once pointed out that more than 70% of Americans believe that in addition to the "donkey elephant dispute" between Republicans and Democrats, the United States also has an unknown "shadow government". The so-called "White House formulating the foreign strategy of the United States" is only a superficial phenomenon, and in fact, there is someone else who dominates the DECISION-making of the United States and manipulates the White House, that is, the shadow.
As for who the "shadow" refers to, the answer has always been a matter of opinion. At present, the CIA, which has repeatedly contradicted the White House, the chaebols on Wall Street, and the military companies that are afraid of not being chaotic enough in the world, may all be the "culprits" that have led to the continued turmoil in the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and Eastern Europe.
Biden, who served as vice president of the United States for 8 years and defeated Trump in 2020, is a well-deserved Democratic party elder. Internally, using the "Capitol Hill incident" to liquidate Trump and his henchmen, externally, strengthening the Control of the United States over NATO and the Five Eyes Alliance by wooing allies and besieging opponents is Biden's best move.
At the juncture when "Nord Stream 2" is about to be put into operation and Russia and Europe intend to join hands to "de-dollarize", how can Biden toss it? It is nothing more than nothing to find out, to make something out of nothing, to force Kiev to show its sword to Russia through the infiltration of Ukrainian politics, even though the United States knows that Ukraine does not want to tear its face with Russia.
Putin once said that if there is no Russia, then what else will the world do. Behind this sentence is Russia's confidence in having thousands of nuclear warheads.
Again, there will be no winner in the war between the United States and Russia, and biden wants to sit on the sidelines and reap the benefits, perhaps to let the United States go to the cliff, because Putin cannot let the United States sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
There is no turning back from the bow, the United States is still too late to close at this time, whether to continue to provoke Putin or adjust the strategy, Biden really has to think about it.
