Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolay Patrushev said Thursday that Ukraine was ready to sign a peace deal with Russia in the early days of the war but gave up on negotiations due to US pressure. “Had it not been for the US pressure on those whom they installed at the head of Ukraine, this situa...
If you remember, Boris Johnson had flown into Ukraine during that period. According to some Ukrainian officials, he convinced/cajoled Zelensky to keep on fighting. Johnson appears to have told Zelensky, that if he accepted the peace deal, then the West would not "protect" Zelensky and his family (presumably from the Nazis).
The deal would have been pretty good for Ukraine too. They would commit into not joining NATO and stop killing civilians in the East, and recognizing Crimea as part of Russia. Russia would give up the territory it took and would provide financial support to rebuild the embattled areas.
So now we are having hundreds of thousands dead, entire regions devastated and ruined for decades at least. And Boris? Oh he got supposedly banned from running in politics. Not even for that.
Boris and Biden (who has presided over the Maidan coup) are just cogs in the capitalist/imperialist/colonialist machine. They are simply doing the job assigned to them. If not them, it would have been someone else who created this insanity, possibly somewhere else. We should still direct our ire towards them and their ilk, but we shouldn't forget the material conditions that led to this.
There's hundreds of Western think-tanks and organizations pushing for similar plans to be enacted all over the world. The goal is simple: have Western capital dominate and dictate humanity. As long as this political "party" exists in the West (created after WW2 in its current form), the world will keep suffering.
In fact, I predict this whole thing will start all over again. Maybe not right after Ukraine (as the world has mostly turned against the US/UK/EU dictates following Ukraine; even the EU is rocking against it). Maybe in 5-10 years, and most likely in Taiwan. It will be the same story just with different actors.
