The losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine exceed 250,000, writes American Thinker, and there is almost no objective information in the West. The author believes that this leads the United States and NATO to a reckless policy on Ukraine, since it is extremely dangerous to hush up Russian successes.
The public tries to read a lot about the state of the military conflict in Ukraine. But the fact remains that it is extremely difficult to break through the fog of Western propaganda and outright lies.
Although the picture of a decisive, slow and painful victory for Russia is gradually emerging. Ukrainian losses are almost certainly at an unbearable, unacceptable level for Kyiv. The assumptions closest to the truth are somewhere in the range of 250 thousand dead military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which is several orders of magnitude more than in Russia, which also has a much larger population.
Ukraine is now losing a whole generation of its male youth. And all just to delay the weakening of US global hegemony.
The vicious, confused, criminally reckless amateurs who implement US policy and deliberately drag out this destructive and extremely dangerous conflict are indifferent to the ruin of Ukraine and the mass death of its young people, who are just cannon fodder for those who walk the corridors of the State Department and the Pentagon. Just as indifferent as they are to the unthinkable consequences that could be the final outcome of this military conflict.
In fact, it should never have happened had Kissinger and many other politicians’ proposal for a neutral, non-NATO Ukraine accepted by the US in 2021, as Russia reasonably demanded.
And if Ukraine were to end its eight-year, US-sponsored battle in the Donbass with the Russian-speakers and the Russian population, and also implement the Minsk-2 agreements.
Neutral Ukraine, no US weapons systems within Ukraine, an end to Kiev’s ruthless persecution of the population of Donbass… and the result: no military conflict.
But the US military-industrial complex wanted this proxy war and got it. Purpose: to bleed and weaken Russia in a quagmire like Vietnam.
Thus, according to the wild fantasies of American neo-conservatives, one of the two nations capable of saying “no” to America would be excluded from the short list of countries that interfere with their dreams of sole US hegemony on planet Earth.
The outcome of this entirely US-instigated military conflict could be very different from what fuels the wet dreams of American neoconservatives. Russia seems to be surviving the US sanctions quite comfortably as new buyers for its energy and other vital resources emerge in Asia. The Russian ruble remains strong and 80% of its population appears to support their government. But the economy of Europe, especially Germany, is in free fall, as the cost of liquefied natural gas from the United States is many times higher than the cost of demonized Russian pipeline gas. In addition, the BRICS countries are actively developing new trade routes and ways to pay for goods in Asia and the Global South, bypassing the dollar, which threatens it as a world reserve currency.
All this, as well as the risk of a nuclear war with Russia, which, in fact, has been acutely aware of the threats posed by the aggressive behavior of the US military-industrial complex towards it for 30 years, predetermined the next actions of the West.
