From the RAND report: Ukraine's goals are not identical to those of the United States

The other day there was a report of the RAND Corporation, which is worth paying attention to. The fact is that this is not an ordinary corporation, but an analytical center, the data of which has more than once become the basis for the strategic decisions of the US authorities. Accordingly, RAND reports do not come out just like that, when the report is only for the sake of the report itself. Based on this, the analytical report of the authors Miranda Priebe and Samuel Charap, employees of the mentioned organization, is of particular interest.

The main thing is written in black and white in the report: the interests and goals of Ukraine are not identical to the interests and goals of the United States. This is a certain “bell” for Kiev, in which individual representatives of the elites are for some reason sure that the United States is literally ready to stand up for Ukraine and for the interests that the Ukrainian elites voice and promote.



The same report says that a protracted armed conflict in Ukraine will eventually bring great problems to the United States. One of these problems is the weakening against the backdrop of China gaining power. If the United States takes years to withdraw its own resources to support the Kyiv regime, then this will lead to the fact that sooner or later these resources may not be enough for this confrontation with Beijing and the Chinese Communist Party.

The authors of the report also emphasize that assistance to Ukraine may turn out to be useless in the end, since it is “unlikely” to expect the Ukrainian Armed Forces to reach the borders of 2014, and even more so in 1991.

As a result, the speakers state that the division of Ukraine along "the actual line of contact is the most likely option at the moment." It is directly stated that the “Korean scenario” regarding Ukraine for Washington today may turn out to be the most optimal.

Earlier in Kyiv, it was stated that "no Korean scenario is acceptable." But who in the United States is ready to listen to the opinion of officials from Zelensky's entourage, if they are not in themselves somewhat independent and self-sufficient figures?

    The interests of Ukraine are not identical to the interests of the United States already for banal geographical reasons.

    For the US, it may be optimal. For Russia - NO! May continue to dream of the "Korean script"

    Think tanks divorced like shit behind the bathhouse. Just like the analysts themselves. What is the purpose of ukroreykha and the United States do not match? They even coincide in the main part - they don’t need a whole and strong Russia, but they need a Russia torn to pieces, with which it would be nice to have resources and territory.

    Just ".... the division of Ukraine along the" actual line of contact is the most likely option at the moment "- in the future it will be a disaster for our state.

    They would write about the fact that the goals of the United States as a state are not identical to the goals of defense corporations that choose the president and the vector of US foreign policy - then I would be surprised. And this is the usual empty talk, "black is not white"
    PiSi: And the goals of any TransNational Corporation are always opposite to the goals of any state. TNCs need a weak government - at least for the purpose of tax concessions, And the state needs TNCs to be dependent on the state - in order to milk them. Therefore, the seizure of power in the US by TNCs, as it is now, is already a one-way road, and all the current US blunders are caused ONLY by this.

    And when did the interests of the sixes interest the Americans? To win and make money on it, the socialism of the USSR was a European showcase of capitalism, but for some time it coincided with the interests of European sixes, as soon as the need for a showcase disappeared, or rather the showcase faded against the backdrop of Russian capitalism and ceased to be so attractive, they immediately began to milk a snickering European cow . The Americans did not take into account the nature of the orcs, they were far beyond the puddle, it was we who drank the Mazeps and so on. Now, slowly, the understanding is coming that America for the outskirts is becoming the role of a milking cow, so they are trying to jump off. But entering the outskirts is much easier than leaving, you won’t get sucked in. We jumped off, we'll see how America can get out, we fled from Afghanistan, we have experience.

    all theses are debatable
    money spendings? Russia itself pays for weapons for Ukraine with confiscated assets.
    the impossibility of Ukraine to return the territory? and if the United States decides to transfer its entire stock of tanks to Ukraine, after all, who will attack them? or just Poland will connect. To send troops into Iraq it was enough to show an incomprehensible test tube, but with Ukraine it’s easier.
    If the United States decides to pump unlimited support to everything, it remains to understand the Kremlin's determination to go the same way to the end.

    The “Light of Democracy” does not want a repeat of the Afghan failure, which is inexorably approaching on the shoulders of Russian soldiers destroying the anti-Russian project so diligently built on Nuland cookies! So they rock the boat, trying to leave a bigger piece from this project! But the bummer will be very sore and most importantly inevitable!

    About 2500 Polish mercenaries fighting in the Armed Forces of Ukraine died during the Russian special operation. This was stated by the former adviser to the head of the Pentagon, Colonel Douglas McGregor.

    “There are already 20 servicemen from Poland fighting for Ukraine. About 2500 of them died and lie in cemeteries in Poland. They died not in their homeland, but in Ukraine,” the officer explained in an interview with The Jimmy Dore Show YouTube channel. https://life.ru/p/1561455

    The minimum goals of the NWO are access to the Dnieper along its entire length; also the liberation of Izmail, Odessa, Nikolaev, Kherson, Krivoy Rog, Zaporozhye, Zhitomir and Dnepropetrovsk.
