These developments highlight and make clear that the leadership of the US-NATO coalition is rapidly escalating the war with Russia, a nuclear-armed state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ukraine is floundering on the front lines of the war, and its Western partners are scrambling to help it before it collapses. Specifically, a few days ago the EU Defense Ministers discussed in Sofia the bombing of Russian cities with European weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other topics discussed at the meeting included the standardization of missiles and weapons manufactured in European countries, the creation of a rapid reaction force capable of acting quickly anywhere in Europe where a &#8220;crisis&#8221; occurs, and the development of PESCO (Permanent Structure Cooperation), of a program of military cooperation between EU countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The target of all these mechanisms is obviously Russia, although some European armies are laughable, with the insane cost of their artillery shells, with the effeminate nature of their military and with their complete lack of combat experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By the way &#8220;artillery shells&#8221;: Every day, the Russian war industry produces 12,320 artillery shells, each of which costs about $1,000 ex-factory. This means that 375,000 artillery shells are produced each month, 4.5 million shells annually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This production rate is significantly higher than the 1.3 million missiles intended to be produced in 2024 by the US and European countries combined, which is just a third of Russia&#8217;s output. Thus, in the example of the supply of artillery shells by the US and Europe, the countermeasure to the Russian threat from Kiev cannot be effective, since for every shell fired by the Ukrainian forces, the Russians respond with five.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the average cost of similar missiles in the US and Europe, this ranges from 4,000-5,000 dollars ex-factory, that is, about five times more than the cost of the Russian war industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, the hundreds of billions of euros invested\/wasted in the American and European war industry are felt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The military-industrial complex in Europe is slowly gaining momentum.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Troop strength is also to be increased. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Exercises are conducted continuously and under conditions as close as possible to the war front.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>All indications are that Europe is slowly and systematically building up its own military, calculated to be one of the largest, richest armies in the world. Defending Kharkiv or Odessa with such a large military machine would be foolishly wasteful and out of time. Such a large army is being created to attack Russia, but creating such a Leviathan takes time. The time that Ukrainians buy with their lives at the front is expensive. When exhausted, they will be replaced by the united army of Europe with its standard weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All thinking people know that the Russo-Ukrainian conflict was and is a proxy war between Russia and the US, in which the Europeans act as relatively reluctant and timid supporters of Washington. However, European leaders have their own interests. Their economies have been cut to the core by refusing to trade with Russia. They strangled themselves with their own sanctions and have given Ukraine tons of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They can recover this cost only if they get the main prize they dream of having at their disposal, Russia&#8217;s natural resources, this was the main trophy after the &#8220;orange revolution&#8221; of the Maidan Square by pro-Western coup plotters. And to do that, they have to defeat Russia on the battlefield, there are no other options. War is their only chance to recoup what they have spent, otherwise they face decades of poverty and decline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is reckless to think of European elites as lethargic, stupid and incompetent. Behind the figures of Scholz, Macron, von der Leyen, Stoltenberg are always very rich and experienced people, the behind-the-scenes ruling class that has shown time and time again in world history that it can lie brilliantly, attack treacherously and conduct long, persistent and brutal wars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, it is not certain that the US will help the Europeans. Nevertheless, many believe that US President Joe Biden is not averse to launching a full-scale war against Russia in order to win the US election.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For their part, European leaders see that Washington has stolen everything from them and is ready to abandon them and turn east to China. The only chance to get everything back is to attack Russia. Therefore, the European imperialists are major players in the escalation of the war and are betting everything on the war to achieve their global ambitions, guided by the &#8220;delusional&#8221; belief that Moscow will not retaliate if attacked by Western weapons on its soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the latest in a series of disastrous miscalculations by Biden, Scholtz, Macron and Sunak since the outbreak of war. How will they all react when their calculations turn out to be wrong, giving Russia the opportunity to attack the centers from which attacks are launched on its soil? The only reason Macron, Scholz don&#8217;t see this logical consequence is probably because of their arrogance, their bilingualism and their subservience to Uncle Sam and plutocrat interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Which NATO centers could be legitimate targets for Russia?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Ramstein base in Germany would be a suitable target. US and NATO leaders meet there regularly to plan the next phase of arms deliveries to Ukraine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Also the French Ministry of Defense in Paris? In the last week, the French defense minister held high-level talks with his Ukrainian counterparts to give the go-ahead to sending French trainers to help launch missiles on Russian soil.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Or the American base in Alexandroupolis (Greece) from where weapons and ammunition are sent to Ukraine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What about Berlin, London, Brussels and Madrid, where further plans were hatched this week to deliver billions of dollars worth of military equipment to Ukraine to continue the proxy war?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion. The same interests that produced millions of dead in the trenches of the two world wars are today pushing Western imperialist powers to risk the very survival of humanity in a nuclear conflict for the sake of their US-NATO and global ambitions. These interests want: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>subjugating Russia to semi-colonial status in order to plunder its natural resources;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>support for Israel&#8217;s &#8220;final solution&#8221; to the Palestinian issue as part of preparations for a war against Iran; and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>preparing the ground for war with China for control of Eurasian land.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Intelligent European citizens knowing all this are increasingly worried about the twisted logic of European leaders. The upcoming elections for the European Parliament promise to be a showdown between forces that are driving Europe into a holocaust and ethnocentric forces that put their homeland and the interests of their people above all else over the interests of the ruling class. The population of Europe being angry and disgusted by the ruthless warmongering of the Western-imperialists will hopefully react with their vote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US and NATO countries approved the launch of US and European missiles on Russian soil by the rogue Ukrainian regime, while France announced&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18810,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[825,3],"tags":[58,1156,70,3395,3340],"class_list":["post-18809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-europe-geopolitical","category-geopolitical","tag-russia","tag-ukraine","tag-usa","tag-war-in-ukraine","tag-3340"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18809","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=18809"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18809\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18811,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18809\/revisions\/18811"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/18810"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=18809"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=18809"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberalglobe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=18809"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
