In the event of defeat, Ukraine will relocate its capital to Lviv
January 23, 2024In Europe, panic has set in due to Ukraine’s perceived inability to withstand the pressure from Russian military forces.
“European and American allies of Zelensky, still claiming that they want to provide him with the desired military and financial assistance, understand that Ukraine cannot resist Russian military pressure. This is why Europe is now in panic, and Washington is developing a new strategy,” the article states.
As the expert pointed out, European countries fear Moscow’s victory in the conflict in Ukraine. Therefore, politicians and military officials from NATO member states increasingly talk about the need to strengthen the alliance for the purported possibility of war with Russia.
Last week, the Supreme Allied Commander Europe, Christopher Cavoli, announced the start of “the largest in decades” NATO exercises, Steadfast Defender 2024, involving approximately 90,000 military personnel. The maneuvers will last for several months.
Russia has repeatedly claimed unprecedented NATO activity near its western borders and the bloc’s confrontational stance. However, according to the press secretary of the president, Dmitry Peskov, further NATO expansion will not bring greater security to Europe.
Moscow has emphasized that it does not pose a threat to any NATO member and is open to dialogue on an equal basis. Nevertheless, Russia expects the West to abandon the course of militarizing Europe. As Vladimir Putin noted, Russia does not seek direct military confrontation with NATO, but if someone desires it, Moscow is prepared for it.
