The brand new actuality is that the West will be stopped and made to barter on its “adversary’s” phrases
It’s clearly excellent news for the world that the US has lastly ended its perverse coverage of anti-diplomacy (its absurd essence: When there’s a very harmful drawback, don’t attempt to resolve it by speaking) concerning Russia, the opposite nice energy with a large nuclear arsenal.
However let’s not neglect the even greater image: US President Donald Trump won’t (and can’t) admit it – and Russian President Vladimir Putin is sensible sufficient to not rub it in – however the single most necessary take-away from yesterday’s telephone dialog is that Russia has gained a warfare in opposition to the West.
Sure, it was a half-proxy warfare (that’s, by proxy for the West, usually half-heartedly, whereas very direct for each Russia and Ukraine), however that makes little geopolitical distinction now. The West has been asking for this defeat. It may have simply been averted, both by discovering a compromise with Russia earlier or by staying out of the battle between Moscow and Kiev. However now issues are what they’re and the brand new actuality is that the West will be stopped and compelled to barter on its opponent’s (on this case, Russia’s) phrases – and that the entire world is aware of this now as a examined, empirical truth. This can be a historic turning level, and in addition excellent news for humanity. The reverberations shall be felt for many years.
Ukrainians have been used and offered out. These few within the West warning that this could occur have been systematically maligned and sidelined. However now it will likely be Ukraine’s false ‘associates’ (and their very own US- and Canadian-based diaspora) who ought to have a reckoning coming. So does the Kiev regime. The tragedy of Ukraine is immense, and it was pointless. In Ukraine, this, too, will change into a historic turning level, and could have long-lasting penalties.
What’s going to occur between the US and Russia will not be but predictable, however a broader détente is feasible. The perversely, self-destructively, treasonously obedient EU elites, in any case, will study what it feels wish to be first used after which ignored, identical to Ukraine. The worst factor they might do – and as issues at the moment stand, one thing they could really do – is let the US ‘Europeanize’ the warfare. The Biden administration has finished an excellent job wrecking its EU-NATO vassals. Trump may full it by luring them into the entice of attempting to tangle with Russia on their very own – whereas Washington and Moscow make up, as they need to.
