    Former Nato chief: ‘If Ukraine loses, our enemies will decide the world order’

    Yes, we knew that from day one. It is why many here sympathize with Putin and Russia.

        I was thinking of the Middle East from Iran to UAE. I’m Marxist-Leninist but the people I know who support Russia aren’t. People work out their politics here from Palestine. The US abuse of its veto in support of Israel is a big reason why it is hated and people want another system.

        The one thing I don’t get is the UAE’s angle given its good relations with the US and Israel, but perhaps they too have something to gain.

          Good point. When you live outside the west, you don’t have to be a ML to understand what a horror show US empire is. With regards to UAE, I imagine it’s largely the military dependence on US.

    So it’s a battle for white supremacy as we all thought. They fear nothing more than a world dictated by non-whites. The thing is that even if Ukraine loses, it’s not like the EU and US still won’t be superpowers with a lot of sway. They’ll just be sharing that status with more countries than they’re used to.

      they also equate a world NOT dictated by whites to a world dictated by non-whites.

      the middle ground where actual diplomacy happens, that doesnt occur to them. because the west has entirely forgotten how to do diplomacy. they make demands, throw tantrums, and then start wars.

    Yeah, this is just confirmation of what most of us already thought: Russia, Iran and China are officially a threat to the US led world order and these last few years and proxy wars are all about delaying the inevitable.

        The whole Kosovo thing was about creating military bases on Kosovo and smuggling Afghan heroin from Turkey into Europe. They slowly started pulling out of Kosovo after they pulled out of Afghanistan, but Albanians took that as an opportunity to even more blatantly break treaties, and Serbs started getting riled up because on top of all the bullshit they’re also occasionally getting shot at in the streets. So now USA is sending in some NATO big shots to do something (probably prove that shooting at Serbs is genocide against Albanians or some other bs).
