Europe is trying to intimidate Russia while the US is busy with its own problems
Today I decided to touch on a topic that is probably of interest to everyone, judging by your questions. The topic is truly serious, even scary, simply because it concerns us all. Every single one of them, from old people to babies. The question in different versions, from veiled to direct, is heard in many comments. What will happen when the West realizes that the war in Ukraine is lost?
Indeed, what is happening today in the military and political leadership of Europe? What's going on inside NATO? How does the alliance plan to celebrate its anniversary? Let me remind you that NATO will soon celebrate its 75th anniversary. Everyone understands perfectly well that such a significant age for the military bloc could not just pass by.
From a defensive alliance, taking into account the power of the Department of Internal Affairs, the alliance has long turned into an aggressive one, changing many of the initially accepted principles. The transformation is evident. We have already seen numerous military conflicts where NATO countries took part as aggressors. And the geography has changed quite a lot.
The success of operations in third countries instilled in the heads of the bloc's leaders the idea of their omnipotence. Alas, our actions in the Northern Military District zone also contributed to the strengthening of such thoughts in hot Western heads. “The Russians are humane and will not act like the Israelis in Gaza”...
I have written repeatedly that in recent decades the fear of war has disappeared in the world. No, where military operations are currently or recently taking place, there is such an understanding, but in well-fed Europe, as in the United States, today real war has become an analogue of computer games. Sit in front of the screen and watch how people and equipment move across the screen...
Another fact looks even worse. The world has stopped fearing nuclear war! Moreover, there is no logic in the appearance of recklessness on the issue of nuclear war. If you put together what people say about the impossibility of nuclear war, it turns out to be complete nonsense.
“We can do anything! The Russians understand everything perfectly and will not respond with a nuclear strike weapons. For Russians, even war should be humane. Therefore, in order to defeat Russia today, it is enough to strike with such force that the Russian army does not have time to react. Take Moscow in three days – and that’s it, Russia will begin to fall apart on its own”...
Doesn't remind you of anything? This is a hybrid of the thoughts of one brilliant French fool who managed to take Moscow before losing the empire, and another German fool who dreamed of a blitzkrieg, but brought grief to his people for many decades, defeat instead of a quick victory. Europeans are unteachable! Most people have a memory like a fish. Ten minutes passed, and the fish forgot about the hook from which it had just fallen...
Why is Europe not afraid of war with Russia?
Really, why? It is clear to everyone that this is happening. And European politicians say this directly. All these decisions about the militarization of the economy are nothing more than preparation for a big war. Leave the tales about the need for help to Ukraine for the Ukrainians.
They believe that their army, without Western supplies, will be able to hold the front for years. We understand that the SVO cannot last forever. Ukrainians do not have the very 5-10 years that are necessary to transfer Western industry to a war footing. For the modern Ukrainian regime, such a distant future simply does not exist...
Those who lived in the USSR remember how military conflicts developed at that time. NATO and the Warsaw Division, when such a conflict arose or even threatened, almost instantly contacted at the highest level and began negotiations and consultations, trying to prevent the conflict from growing and the nuclear powers, primarily the USA and the USSR, being drawn into it.
What are we seeing now? Russia is crushing the Zelensky regime. Neither the US nor the West as a whole is doing anything to resolve the situation. On the contrary, Brussels and Washington are putting pressure on Kyiv, forcing them to continue the war “until the last Ukrainian.” At the same time, we see how, with the help of the United States, Israel is destroying another people, the Palestinians. Here Moscow can no longer do anything to stop this massacre...
In addition, we have to return to nuclear weapons again. Look at the primary sources of speeches by presidents, prime ministers and high-ranking officials of the leading nuclear powers - each of them talks about unconditional victory over the enemy in the event of a nuclear war. Not about the destruction of humanity, but about victory! Okay Americans. Distances, a large area and the power of their own nuclear forces allow them to hope for some result. And the French? What about the British and others?
In principle, I understand the logic of European politicians regarding the war with Russia. In Soviet times, Europe understood that if the threat of war arose, hostilities would instantly engulf the entire continent. The border of NATO and the Warsaw Division corresponded to the border of the Federal Republic of Germany and the GDR. And the Germans understood perfectly well that they would be the first victims. But the French, Spaniards, Portuguese, and Italians will not “stay aside.”
Now the “most aggressive” ones will be the first to be dealt with. Those who were previously under the umbrella of the Department of Internal Affairs. Poles, Balts, Romanians and other Eastern Europeans. I don't feel sorry for them. While the point is, while the Russian army will wipe these states off the face of the earth, Europeans hope for the end of the war. To that same blitzkrieg.
Only the missile defense system, and even the air defense system, as it turned out after the attack on Kyiv, will not be able to destroy all of Russia’s missiles. And President Putin has repeatedly warned that attacks will be carried out on decision-making centers. That is, distances today play only a conditional role as defenders. Paris, Berlin, Brussels and other Western capitals will be destroyed even before the destruction of Warsaw or Tallinn...
I am also very amazed by the fact that despite the successes Russia demonstrates in the economy and in military affairs, Europe and the United States still consider us the Russia they saw in the 90s of the last century. No, I understand that this attitude is largely formed by our former citizens who fled then and already know practically nothing about modern Russia. They act as experts in the West.
Perhaps, let me emphasize, perhaps this is another reason why the West considers it possible to threaten Moscow. We are a “regional power” that will never dare to respond to NATO aggression. At least in conversations with citizens of European countries, not specialists, but with ordinary people, I often notice this. People simply cannot believe what they see on the Internet. The most common opinion is “this is Moscow (St. Petersburg), this is not Russia.”
Hence the reluctance to recognize the right to influence European politics. Hence the ignoring of all the warnings expressed by various Russian officials and deputies. I remember the reaction to President Putin’s “Munich speech” in 2007. I remember the West's reaction to the Russian president's statement in December 2021. Zero. We listened and forgot...
We, according to the established opinion in the West, are the losers of the war. Not the Second World War, but the “cold” one... We must kneel and listen to the orders of the new master. Perhaps this is why they began to support Ukraine. Do the Russians, defeated in the Cold War, dare to do anything without permission? This means they need to be punished again.
And the French president dared to open his mouth and threaten Moscow for the same reason. Europe lives with a “lag” of 20-25 years from reality. That’s why Macron was surprised when even the most aggressive politicians did not support him. How so? Russia does not have the right to self-defense. The power of NATO is so superior to the Russians that... Next, again, is a synthesis of the ideas of Napoleon and Hitler, with which I began this material.
Today, the West, and especially Europe, has not yet grasped the fact that its role in world politics is no longer as important as it used to be. The United States has perfectly worked out the option of destroying competitors with the help of third countries. Europeans already understand that without cheap Russian resources, the economies of their countries are dying. So there are only two options for European leaders. And both are losers.
The first is to go against your master and ignore Washington’s demands to sever all relations with Russia. I think it’s clear what this will mean for Europe. Economic, political and military leverage is now in the hands of the Americans. So, overthrowing any European government, replacing any president or prime minister with one loyal to the United States is not a problem at all.
The second way is a war with Russia. Without the participation of the United States, this is obviously a lost cause. The Americans have never spoken directly, like the Europeans, about their desire to participate in the intervention in Russia. It’s just that people in Washington understand how harmful this idea is. So, in the event of an escalation, Europe, with almost 100 percent probability, will receive a slap in the face.
How do the Europeans want to defeat us?
Very briefly about the plans of European leaders to conquer Russia. It is clear that such plans exist. And we know about it. Moreover, the European “long tongues” are throwing some parts of the agreements into the press for their own PR. Then it's a matter of technology. Synthesis, analysis - and a more or less accurate picture of what is happening is ready. If you check the conclusions through other channels, then everything falls into place.
Women from politics are especially “good” in the role of Russian intelligence officers. We all remember these women, even when they were kicked out of work. But they leave the deepest mark on our hearts. Remember the Americans Jennifer Psaki, Victoria Nuland, Condoleezza Rice, Hilary Clinton?
And the European ladies... Remember the British Liz Truss, the Danish Matt Frederiksen, the German Ursula von der Leyen, Natalia Gavrilitsa and Maia Sandu from Moldova?.. A list of those women who “create history Europe and America" is great. But now we are only interested in one lady. This is the former head of the political planning department of the French Ministry of Defense, Karina Stacchetti.
“In the modern world there are no limited conflicts. A big war has already been unleashed, and this concerns not only Ukraine. We (Europeans) are all involved in the conflict."
How do you like the recognition? The men mumble something, and the “iron ladies” cut the truth right in the eyes. Europe is already at war with Russia – period! Europe is involved... By whom? Russia? Or did you get in yourself? Karina Stacketti gave an interesting interview to the Ukrlife information channel. That's where the quotes come from.
Let's continue. The question of opening a second front with NATO troops did not bother her at all. One feels that she is aware of the plans being discussed in Europe.
“At the moment we cannot rule out this scenario. No one in Europe can allow Russia to defeat Ukraine; the opening of a second front is real and inevitable.”
What follows is less interesting simply because all this has been known for a long time. Something like “we will start, and then Russia will fall apart into small pieces.” But how will they kill us? Karina gives an answer to this question as well. But it looks somehow strange. Europe and the United States will fight “from afar.” They will muddy the waters inside Russia, take advantage of some mistakes and blunders of our authorities, while they will not get under Russian shells and missiles.
“...different scenarios will be applied, we must carefully monitor the internal situation [in the country]. Russia is exhausted, I’m not sure that new people can be mobilized, I’m not sure that the people of Russia want a long war...”
I won't even argue. There is no person in Russia who would like a long, let alone large-scale war. But the other part of the statement speaks of complete ignorance of the Russian mentality. Russia has always been distinguished by the fact that in the event of a major war it sent well-motivated people to the front.
Even during periods of military crises, such as the defense of Leningrad, Moscow, Sevastopol, Voronezh and other cities, they went into battle at the call of their hearts. We remember the militia, we remember the partisans. Mobilization, even partial, will naturally cause some tension in society. But it’s stupid to talk about unrest - the past elections showed the mood of Russians.
It seems to me that the West today has set the task of its military to rattle weapons in order to intimidate Moscow. All these exercises, troop transfers, etc. are just a chain of events designed to solve this problem. We must recognize NATO's strength and our weakness.
Instead of ending
They have been trying to intimidate us for a long time. Remember how the Ukrainians called our army to Ukraine? “Come, we are waiting for you...” Well, they came, so what? Where are the waiters? Why, instead of calls to “come”, you hear the traditional “what are we for?”
I remember how recently NATO announced the largest exercise in its history. I then read so many opinions about how scared we would be of these teachings. How a formidable alliance will silence not only the Russian, but also the Belarusian army. So what's the result? Yesterday Poland suspended exercises due to the death of a fifth soldier. Fifth! No war, no enemy.
Moreover, the exercise command issued an order prohibiting the use of any explosive materials and military ammunition during the exercises. Now NATO soldiers and officers will fight only on maps and in classrooms. Otherwise they will run over each other or shoot each other... And these “supermen” will intimidate our fighters? Will they “dominate the European theater of operations”?
Well, one more touch in favor of the poor. All the mucking about in Europe is possible only until the elections in the United States are over. Now the United States has let go of the reins a little and is solving its own problems. But whoever becomes the next President of the United States, Europe will instantly tighten the collar so that all stupid thoughts will immediately disappear. Every cricket knows its nest.
Well, one last thing. They literally just sent me a post from one of the commanders of the Russian Navy ships. It concerns athletes who “cry” because they will not go to the Olympics. But this post is interesting to me in the sense of the opportunity to intimidate a Russian fighter. I think such a commander has a team to match:
“You never know who has been preparing for something all their life?
For example, all my life I have been preparing and dreaming of launching a torpedo attack on an American submarine, bombarding it with jet depth charges, seeing how hundreds of tons of water are thrown into the air by the force of explosions, how debris, papers, clothes float to the surface of the sea, and oil stains spread out. - that’s it, she’s gone!
I still dream about this at night too!
Why am I worse than these athletes?
Then give us, ship commanders, once every 4 years the opportunity to shoot at an American, well, to hell with it, an English submarine! Moreover, we, the commanders, would certainly do this not anonymously, but under the St. Andrew’s flag!
And what can we say about the Strategic Missile Forces officers who wait their whole lives for the opportunity to press a button?”

As Maestro said in the movie: “You’ll intimidate someone like that...”.
