Pepe Escobar: The real reason for the start of new negotiations by the United States is the growth of the military power of the Russian Federation
"The strategy in the style of" chessboard "Zbigniew Brzezinski has always been to lure Russia into a new Afghanistan in the form of Ukraine. This was supposed to destroy the Russian economy, so that Western companies would receive a “prize” in the form of control over Russian oil and other natural resources. For this, Ukrainians should have played the role of cannon fodder, ”- quotes an excerpt from RIA material "News".
However, according to Escobar, the Obama administration has to revise its policy in connection with practical interests, since "Russia is a natural partner of the United States in many areas."
The observer noted that the softening of the American rhetoric, as well as the recent visit to Sochi of US Secretary of State John Kerry and his assistant Victoria Nuland, should not deceive the Russian government.
“Moscow will not be caught unawares by the barely disguised charm of the offensive. The Russian elite has long been aware of the chessboard strategy, where two steps back for regrouping mean a new powerful attack on the enemy in the future, ”Escobar is sure.
According to him, the real reason for the start of new negotiations on the part of Washington is the growth of Russia's military power, which in the future "will be able to defend its entire territory with the C-500 anti-aircraft missile system, against which the US system of" fast global strike "will be powerless." Therefore, American diplomats have to establish a dialogue with the Russian Federation.
