The narrative of the former NATO advisor about the greatest danger for Europe
The former NATO adviser and former Swiss intelligence officer said that although it is clear to Europe that Russia is a powerful country, the leaders of these countries are gradually distancing themselves from the view that Russian power is a threat to European capitals.
According to RCO News Agency, “Jacques Beau”, a former NATO advisor and retired colonel of the Swiss Army General Staff, expressed the view on his YouTube channel that European politicians are gradually changing their position towards Russia.
“We have always been told that Russia is on the verge of attacking NATO, but Tulsi Gabbard, the head of US national intelligence, declared that all these assessments were lies and pure propaganda,” RIA Novosti News agency reported.
“Now some in Europe are changing their minds,” continued Beau, a former Swiss military intelligence officer. For example, the Finnish president declared that Russia is not a threat, and then the Estonian intelligence chief said that Russia has no intention of attacking the Baltic states. Therefore, we see that many are retreating from their positions.”
In his opinion, the greatest danger for Europe today is incompetent politicians.
He emphasized: “The main threat against Europe now is not from Russia, China, Iran or any other country; The problem with Europe is that we lack strong leadership. People are not able to objectively assess the situation. “From the beginning, they convinced themselves that Russia is weak, but now it is clear that it is strong.”
In this regard, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov announced on December 11 that Russia has no aggressive plans against NATO and the European Union and is ready to provide such guarantees in writing.
The Kremlin, which previously called the claims about Russian President Vladimir Putin’s intention to attack European countries and revive the Soviet Union as baseless and emphasized that he has no intention of doing so, has repeatedly stated that Russia does not pose a danger to anyone, but at the same time, it will not remain indifferent to potentially dangerous actions for its interests.
In recent years, Russia has seen unprecedented NATO activity along its western borders. The coalition is expanding its initiatives, calling it aggression deterrence.
Moscow has repeatedly expressed its concern about the increase of NATO forces in Europe. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia has announced that it is ready to talk with NATO from an equal position and that the West should abandon the policy of militarization of the European continent.
