EGREGIOUS BLUNDERS BY THE WEST HAVE BROUGHT ABOUT UKRAINE’S DESTRUCTION AS A VIABLE STATE

Though western politicians and media have long sought to present a positive spin on events in Ukraine they are now confronted with an unavoidable reality. The Kiev regime they sponsored has lost and lost big.

As Russia mounts a second front in the Kharkov region and potentially a third in the Sumy region we can see the end game unfolding for the Ukraine Project of the western powers.

A concatenation of errors arguably beginning in 2008 when George W. Bush forced through a statement against the objection of several important powers that Ukraine would join NATO at some future date. As the present head of the CIA, William Burns said at the time in a memo, this was the reddest of red lines for Russia.

Since 2008 the list of egregious errors by the successive leaders of the West has grown ever longer. Pushing NATO towards Russia’s borders through ever more ex-Warsaw Pact nations joining after a verbal agreement with Gorbachev that this would not happen was overwhelmingly provocative. What was the Russian leadership to think that this organisation created as the West’s primary weapon against the Soviet Union aimed to squat on the Russian border with Ukraine?

From 2008 to the present day NATO heads have made no serious case for being a merely defensive organisation. The people of Serbia and libya can vouch for the fact that NATO is quite obviously an extremely deadly offensive organisation. Why would Russia tolerate such a presence on its borders? Would the USA, UK or European nations tolerate the equivalent Russian military assets on their borders?

Russian offers to the West that security guarantees based on diplomacy resolve all outstanding problematic areas between them fell on deaf ears. Russia attending the Minsk Accord discussions for the best part of a decade to find a peaceful, diplomatic path was treated in bad faith by the western powers. They were never committed to finding that path but instead concentrated their efforts in building Ukraine’s military power to NATO standards. Russia offered to discuss the building of a new security architecture for Europe guaranteeing the continued sovereignty of all borders was rejected.

In Turkey early in 2022 an agreement that would see Ukraine remain a neutral nation outside of NATO was all but worked out when the western powers intervened and ensured that the military conflict between Russia and the Ukrainian regime would continue. Since this agreement almost within reach in Istanbul the West has escalated time and time again, constantly pushing Russia to respond. Since Istanbul half a million Ukrainians have died or suffered terrible injuries. Meanwhile, Russia’s escalatory dominance has only increased. At least one thousand volunteers join the Russian army each day. The Russian military industrial complex has been expanded, made more efficient and developed where new weapons are brought on stream across the Ukrainian battleground.

Despite all independent expert opinion stating that there was no path to victory for Ukraine and that Russia’s resources were overwhelmingly superior the western leadership has continued blindly to double down. Everything the West could do wrong it has. Now we arrive at the final outcome in Ukraine that was in fact predictable from the day western sanctions failed to bring the Russian economy down. Doubling down hoping for a miracle is all the West has had since that time, depending on sending money and weaponry hoping that the Russian need for security could be weakened. There was NEVER any possibility that the existential threat Russia had identified against it would allow its leadership to ignore that threat. To believe so is arguably the most grievous error made by the West over this entire debacle fomented at each stage by its leaders.

Russia is winning hands down and will ultimately be totally victorious. The security of the Russian people depends upon it. No amount of resistance by the West was ever going to change this outcome. All that its errors have done is to massively increase the number of deaths and injuries that occur before this always inevitable result. In the next few weeks and months the entire world will see the extent to which those errors bring total humiliation to those who so blindly, ignorantly and recklessly committed them.

And Ukraine will lie totally destroyed as a viable nation due to their mindless idiocy.
