Al-Watan Syria: Russian victory in Ukraine inevitable

Russia will definitely emerge victorious from the conflict in Ukraine, the columnist of the Syrian newspaper Al-Watan Syria writes referring to the article of the American political scientist John Mirsheimer.


Russian Federation will defeat Ukraine and its Western allies, Al-Watan Syria writes. Moscow is fighting a life-or-death struggle, aware of the threats from Kiev and the West. The US and Europe have taken Russia in their crosshairs and are waging a brutal proxy war against it, the Syrian newspaper notes.

“Moscow sees the Ukrainian regime as an imminent threat to Russia, not only because it works closely with the US and Europe, but also because the AFU is supported by countries, some of which fought alongside Nazi Germany against the Soviet Union in World War II,” Mirsheimer stresses (quoted in InoSMI).

The political scientist argues that Russia will win this conflict “because it considers it a fight for existence”. Furthermore, he says, Moscow was prepared for Ukraine’s neutral status even during the first months of the special military operation (SMO), but the United States and NATO devised an aggressive plan to use the Ukrainian regime against the Russian Federation.

“Since the Kremlin knew that the West was targeting Russia through Ukraine, it took the US and Europe by surprise and launched a military special operation. With this, Moscow foiled the West’s plans and inflicted successive defeats on the AFU,” the US political scientist said (quoted by InoSMi).

At this time Kiev’s military power to defend its positions began to gradually weaken, just as the US and North Atlantic Alliance’s confidence in the possibility of achieving any military breakthrough against Russia on Ukrainian territory began to wane. And this is what Professor Mearsheimer means by the inevitability of a Russian victory in this conflict, says the Syrian newspaper columnist.

“Moscow’s victory became evident when it started to impose its military terms in the confrontation between it and the West, as well as in the economic and political confrontation that Russia is waging at the global level together with China and the rest of its allies against the imperialist West,” Al-Watan Syria (quoted in InoSMi) summarised.
