US footprint in the Ukrainian war

According to RCO News Agency, three years ago, on February 4, with the launch of Russia’s “special operations” in Ukraine, the bloody war on the European continent began after World War II.

But did this war start three years ago? Where does the roots of this war come back? What is the role of America in it?

On February 7, US officials explicitly promised to the Soviet authorities that “NATO one inch will never expand.” According to documents released by the US, Germany, Britain and France, which is visible in the National Security Archive of George Washington University, the famous US Secretary of State James Baker’s guarantee that NATO was not expanding to the east. Mikhail Gorbachev », the last Soviet leader on February 7, was part of the set of guarantees that Western leaders on Soviet security to Gorbachev and other Soviet officials during the German unity process They were given.

“George HW. Bush, the then US President during the Malta summit in December, assured Gorbachev that the United States would not abuse Eastern European revolutions to harm Soviet interests.

According to published documents, the first tangible guarantees of Western leaders on NATO began on January 5. Russian sources have also referred to the Western malice, referring to the Western promises to the Soviet Union and the Russian Federation (present -day Russia) since the beginning of the year.

Boris Yeltsin, the first president of the Russian Federation in the year, emphasized the West’s promises to Gorbachev and the Soviet Union, calling NATO’s expansion to the East “illegal”. Four years later, Russian Foreign Minister Yogoni Primakov, a former Gorbachev adviser and head of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, said several Western leaders have told Gorbachev that no country left out of the Warsaw Treaty. NATO will not be. “

Three years later, at the Munich Security Conference in 2008, then Russian President Vladimir Putin again explicitly stated to Western countries: “What happened to the guarantees that our Western partners have given after the dissolution of the Warsaw Treaty? »

But despite repeated criticism of Russian officials against Western abuse of its promises to the Soviet Union, NATO expanded to the East, and US officials rejected Russian criticism, insisting on Ukraine’s membership in NATO, and even Joe Biden. The former US president has clearly announced that “Ukraine will soon join NATO.”

Ukraine and US ambitiousness to “strategic” defeat to Russia

Ukraine, as one of Europe’s largest countries and a former member of the Soviet Union, has the most common border with Russia. Moscow has always introduced NATO expansion to the East as the West’s attempt to “isolate” Russia and an existential threat to itself, with these threats to Biden’s statements and the events of the year in Ukraine and the Western -operating state -run government efficiency.

Following the coming of the Western state with the help of Western countries in Ukraine in year 6, Moscow accused Kiev of starting a strong Russian clearing in Ukraine. Ukrainian President Walodimir Zelnski has always emphasized the ban on Russian or culture in Ukraine and has sometimes been proud of it.

In such circumstances, even before the Ukrainian war began on December 5, Putin re -criticized the West: “We remember, as I have mentioned many times, and as you know well, how to promise us in the 1980s. You said (NATO) would not move an inch east. You shamelessly deceived us: There were five waves of NATO spread. We do not threaten anyone. Are we approaching the borders of the US, Britain or any other country? “It is you who have come to our border and now you say that Ukraine will also become a NATO member.”

But despite the Russian president’s criticism of the West’s call for NATO development and Ukrainian membership in the military coalition, US President Biden insisted on his request for Ukrainian membership in NATO, and eventually, in the 6th, in the 6th, in the 6th. February 4, the war began in Ukraine.

According to statistics released by the Kiev Economics School, the war has led to the widespread destruction of Ukraine, killing hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians, Russian and 5 billion direct damage in Ukraine.

US retreat from its request for Ukrainian membership in NATO

US President Donald Trump, however, insisted on his demand for peace in Ukraine, pressing Kiev to “straighten” hundreds of billions of dollars in US loans offered to Ukraine and opposed its membership in NATO. .

US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegst also said in a statement that “Ukraine’s membership in NATO is impossible.”

Hegest has also rejected the possibility of US troops in Ukraine as a peacekeeping forces, saying that any security guarantees provided to Ukraine should not include Article 5 of NATO.

In addition to Washington’s retreat from his earlier demands, Trump, who, according to Bloomberg’s US network, sought to “economic colonialism” and seize natural resources under the pretext of returning US money, emphasized his desire to end the Ukrainian war as soon as possible. Addressing Zelnski, “You should not start this war.”

Speculation about the end of the Ukrainian war

On the other hand, Trump’s foreign policy statements and approaches have been welcomed by Russia and its officials.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov recently emphasized: “Trump is the first and apparently so far, the only Western leader who has publicly and loudly said that one of the main reasons for Ukraine’s situation is the former government to bring Ukraine to NATO. It has been. This is now a signal that he understands our position. “

Under such circumstances, many believe that despite the “absence of Ukraine and Europe” in the US -Russian talks, the possibility of ending the Ukrainian war, which came to its fourth year, has intensified.

On the other hand, according to the New York Times, Western allies of Ukraine are facing many internal problems. France and Germany, three of the most influential European countries, have been affected by months of political inefficiency and have been influenced by the emergence of extremist right parties.

With these interpretations, given Washington’s retreat from its former demands and a more policy -making policy with Moscow, the possibility of a major global power agreement to end the Ukrainian conflict without Europe is very high.
