An Update on Ukraine and NATO’s Pivot Towards China
With the fall of Lysychansk and Sievierdonetsk, Russia now has control of the entire People’s Republic of Luhansk, and within the next few weeks, it is likely that the People’s Republic of Donetsk will follow suit. Though Ukraine vows to regain the Donbass, with the support of NATO weapons, the likelihood of success is very low, despite what the corporate media suggests. Moreover, the Oblast of Kherson, of which the capital city was captured early in the war, will soon have a referendum to determine if it should be annexed by Russia, and this may set the stage for the future pro-Russian state of Novorossiya, stretching from Crimea to Luhansk (or, Kherson may be directly annexed). Fighting also continues on the near-border cities of Kharkiv, Ukraine and Belgorod, Russia, where both countries accuse each other of bombing sovereign territory and harming civilians.
As American military aid (alone) to Ukraine approaches Russia’s entire military budget for the fiscal year 2021 (roughly $66 billion), Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is asking the “entire democratic world” for a modest favor of $750 billion for the reconstruction of the country when Russia finally leaves (if Zelensky is suggesting that Russia will eventually withdraw, and British Foreign Minister Liz Truss and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz agree that a new “Marshall Plan” is soon to be in the works, would this not imply that these countries realize that Russia’s intentions are not to conquer the country, but rather, it is attempting to accomplish whatever narrow goals it has set?), and the plan is to have formerly neutral Switzerland leverage Russian oligarchs and commodity traders to have money redistributed towards the recovery effort. And, of course, American defense contractors will have a field day with this, after they finish supplying missile systems, such as Lockheed Martin’s HIMARS and Raytheon’s NASMAS.
Things are heating up as Russia plans on sending Iskander-M nuclear and conventional missiles to Belarus, just as the United States has had similar weapons sitting in Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, and Turkey for years and continues to conduct nuclear exercises near the Belarusian and Russian borders; and NATO has pledged to increase its readiness forces in Europe to over 300,000. As Turkey has dropped its objections to Sweden and Finland joining NATO and the two countries sign their accession agreements with the alliance, Russian President Vladimir Putin warns that any mobilization or troop buildups in Scandinavia would be met with reciprocal actions (direct threats against the two countries previously were just bluffs, as I had said at the time). In addition to this, Russian propaganda suggests that Putin’s forces are prepared for direct confrontation with NATO and could strike Estonia, Lithuania, and Poland first, should nuclear war break out; while simultaneously, British Chief of the General Staff Patrick Sanders has told all troops in his country to prepare for fighting in World War III. There is even talk in Russia of matching American missiles by placing them in Latin America (Cuban Missile Crisis II?), and Russian propagandist, Olga Skabeyeva (the Iron Doll) leaked satellite images of bombing scenarios in London, Washington, and Brussels, among other cities. There is now serious talk of a hot war breaking out between the United States and Russia on both sides, and although the Biden administration pretends that it does not want war with Putin, its actions speak louder than words.
At the 2022 NATO summit in Madrid, Spain, Russian aggression in Ukraine and growing influence in Africa were not the only items of discussion, and increased partnerships with nations in the Indo-Pacific region to counter the threat of China is now a high priority of the North ATLANTIC Treaty Organization (since the alliance is now putting its nose in every part of the world, perhaps renaming it the Treaty Organization of the Seven Seas would be more appropriate). So, now all of NATO will patrol the Pacific Ocean looking to start conflict with China, in addition to the United States’ years-long Freedom of Navigation patrols in the South China Sea (let us see how close to Chinese-claimed islands we can get before the superpower punches back) and Australia’s tiff with China over Solomon Islands and Cambodia. But, never fear, as the Biden administration has a plan. He will spend $200 billion that Americans do not have to invest in infrastructure projects that benefit other countries. There is no need to help Americans in a time of inflation and potential food shortages. We need to defeat China economically for bragging rights, first and foremost (yes, solar projects in Angola and government-corporate partnerships to build a submarine telecommunications cable from Singapore to France are just what Americans need right now).
Well, if a hot war does not break out with Russia within the next five years, do not worry, my dear war-starved patriots. War with China is in the making for 2027, at least according to former Pentagon officials, Chinese experts, and congressmen that participated in a large-scale NBC-hosted exercise, which simulated an invasion of Taiwan, subsequent preemptive attacks against American military targets (like Japan and Pearl Harbor), and reactions by the United States military against mainland China. It would not be surprising if government officials and the corporate media are preparing us to accept an upcoming war with China (or at least increased spending for the military-industrial complex), especially with NATO’s pivot to the Pacific; and if that day comes, it will not be difficult to see the missteps of how we got there.
