The role of the United States in the expansion of the crisis in Ukraine
A month after the start of the war in Ukraine, the American president threatened Russia with western weapons and severe economic sanctions. However, today the war in Ukraine has expanded a lot and has many consequences at the international level.
According to RCO News Agency, in an article referring to the expansion of tensions between Russia and the West, as well as the involvement of several Eastern European countries in the consequences of this war in Ukraine, the English media reported that the American policy to contain this war has failed.
According to the Guardian newspaper, Joe Biden tried to curb this conflict at the beginning of the Ukraine war. In his speech in the capital of Poland a month after the start of the war in Ukraine, he warned Russia in a very serious tone not to “even think of entering a piece of NATO territory”.
In this speech, Biden promised that the United States and its allies would send arms and aid to Ukraine, impose extensive economic and financial sanctions against Moscow, and severely devalue the value of the Russian ruble.
According to the Guardian, today thirty months have passed since then, Biden’s strategy to contain tensions has failed miserably and the Ukraine crisis is spreading like a cancer cell. Although Russia and NATO have not yet engaged in direct war, Poland and Romania have been affected by stray missiles and naval attacks, and the entire Black Sea region has been involved, including Belarus.
The Ukraine crisis has also led to disagreements between the US and Europe in NATO and the European Union, including over sending troops and long-range missiles to Ukraine, inviting Kiev to join NATO, and creating a separate and independent “defense identity” for Europe. .
Sweden and Finland, which were relatively neutral countries, were pushed to join NATO, and the Baltic states are worried about a Russian attack. France has a harsh position and Germany is more moderate. Hungary and Serbia have adopted positions close to the Kremlin, and Italy has not acted decisively. “None of these countries feel safe,” the Guardian reported.
Biden’s speech in Warsaw – March 2022
According to the Guardian, Biden’s failure to contain this war has fueled major geopolitical changes, especially the “no-holds-barred” cooperation between China and Russia. Beijing receives oil from Russia at a lower price, and in return, provides diplomatic support to Moscow and helps Russia in providing certain technologies. Also, in the recent meeting of the heads of the “BRICS” group, which was hosted by Russia, Türkiye attended; A country that is a member of NATO.
Many countries that witness the condemnation of Russia’s attack on Ukraine and the active facilitation of the Zionist regime’s aggression against Palestine from the West, are fed up with this double standard and have changed their biases.
The Guardian also considered the published reports about the sending of soldiers from North Korea to Russia among other things that show the dramatic expansion of this conflict.
According to the British media, the war in Ukraine has diverted attention from other serious conflicts in the world, such as the crises in Sudan and Myanmar, and has caused food prices to rise and damage to poor countries. According to the Guardian, the enormous economic costs of this war are increasing, and the World Bank estimates that Ukraine suffered $152 billion in direct losses in the first 2 years of the war.
Biden has tried to prevent the spread of this conflict, but today, according to the British media, the support of the West is decreasing, Russian forces are advancing, and the plan of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for this war, which is called the “Victory Plan”, is not very acceptable. has not achieved
British media reported that Biden could have avoided some of these consequences by thinking of appropriate measures. According to the Guardian, Biden should have warned the Kremlin before the start of the war to get rid of the idea of attacking Ukraine, otherwise he will face an increase in NATO weapons.
The Guardian claims that if this deterrence power was established against Russia, the Kremlin would no longer consider entering into a full-scale war with Ukraine.
