About 100 nations attended a peace summit on the Ukraine conflict final week, held at a 5-star resort in Switzerland. Ukraine wasn’t invited, and several other invitees—together with China—didn’t attend. Most attending nations signed a communique on the Ukraine battle, however some essential international locations didn’t: Saudi Arabia, UAE, Mexico, Indonesia, India, Brazil, and India.
Hmmm. The BRIC nations, that are working to undermine the standing of the greenback, have been all nonsigners. What do you suppose which means?
The USA–far extra serious about cramming a Gaza ceasefire down Israel’s throat than peace in Ukraine–sent VP Kamala Harris as its official consultant, and she or he solely attended briefly. In the meantime, President Biden hung out with George Clooney and Julia Roberts out in Califonia, elevating cash for his reelection marketing campaign.
None of those world leaders proposed a believable plan to finish the Ukraine conflict. Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated it will not be time to debate a peace plan till Ukraine’s army place is extra sturdy.
Russian President Vladimir Putin introduced a “sane” ceasefire proposal that might require the West to resign Ukraine’s membership in NATO and cede the Donbas and Crimea to Russia. Ukraine dismissed Putin’s provide as a nonstarter.
The Ukraine conflict has solely three attainable outcomes: First, Russia will win the battle and take up the Donbas into the Russian Federation. It already has a agency maintain on a lot of the territory it calls for.
Second, the US, ever extra determined to defeat the Russkies, will escalate the battle, finally pushing Putin to make use of tactical nuclear weapons, which he has repeatedly threatened to do.
Third, the Ukraine conflict will merely drag on for a number of extra years till Ukraine is a wasteland and Uncle Sam is lifeless broke.
The third chance is most definitely. If the Ukraine conflict drags on for just a few extra years, the U.S. will not be a world energy. In different phrases, Pax Americana is in its twilight years and can finish because the BRICs accede to world dominance.
Personally, I believe the collapse of America’s standing because the world’s chief is a excessive value to pay for fucking with the Russians within the wheatfields of Ukraine.
