Afrasianet - Mounir Shafiq wrote: Most of what was written about the American policy before the war in Ukraine should be re-read in light of the change that occurred in the American policy with regard to the attitude towards Russia, as well as with regard to dealing with the war in Ukraine.

Before the war in Ukraine, America was seeking to encircle Russia militarily and politically, through the expansion of the "NATO" alliance, to include all the former "Warsaw" countries, then all the European countries that were republics in the Soviet Union.

It has finally arrived, with a few exceptions, to arming Ukraine and preparing it to enter NATO, after it succeeded in bringing about a coup in the Ukrainian authority in 2014, which forced Putin's Russia to launch a limited and lightning war to regain the Crimea, which Khrushchev had previously carved out. from the territory of Russia and gave it to Ukraine (which was the pampered republic after Russia in the Soviet Union).

After this war, in which Russia regained the Crimea, two people's republics were established in eastern Ukraine, Donetsk and Luhansk, whose independence was protected by the Minsk Agreement. Ukraine is led by a Jewish-Zionist president who descended with an American umbrella over the Ukrainian people after the 2014 coup.

He managed to win the elections, promising to bring financial aid to Ukraine from America, so the Biden administration began supplying him, in cooperation with Britain, with anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, which posed a threat to Russian national security on The highest level. That is, what a capable state cannot tolerate, as its national security (existence) is threatened.

Which imposed on Putin, first, to mobilize 150,000 soldiers on Ukraine's borders, threatening war if Ukraine continues to threaten Russian national security and seek to enter NATO and become hostile to Russia.

He asked Ukraine to be neutral, like Sweden, for example, and to be a friend to Russia and the West, and to look after the interests of the Ukrainian people in this neutrality in the best way.

Instead of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky responding to this just request, which serves the interests of the Ukrainian people, Europe and Russia, and spares the Ukrainian people from being subjected to a cruel, destructive and painful war, Zelensky went to adopt the American policy of mobilizing armed force and challenging Russia, to push it to war. mobilized her army.

Tomorrow the situation was very no joke or jokes. Only a president like Zelensky, who descended under the American parachute, could take him by a president belonging to the Ukrainian people and concerned with his interests, with no other concern than serving American and Zionist politics, and no affiliation to the people who elected him under the illusion that he is a genuine Ukrainian and is concerned with the interests of the people Ukrainian.

Otherwise, how can he explain the option of a catastrophic, devastating war for the Ukrainian people and Ukraine, while the opposite offer is Ukraine, which is neutral and friendly to both Russia and the West at the same time. Because of U.S. policies during and after that, it will transcend the multipolar world into a world of antagonistic polar blocs. Here, the Biden administration has pushed both Russia and Ukraine into war on February 24, 2022.

The world has witnessed, and is still witnessing, the scourge of the Ukrainian people, and the military, economic and political harm to Russia, which is forced to defend its national security.

Since that day, the war is still raging with its woes on the Ukrainian people, its harm on Russia, its severe damage to the global economy, and the material losses and living difficulties that will be caused to millions, or tens of millions of people, of average condition, and less. As for the worst, three or four rounds of negotiations between Russia and the Kyiv government failed, due to Zelensky's rejection of the Russian offer that still stands: Ukraine's neutrality and not turning it into a US military base, which threatens Russia's national security very seriously.

This refusal is based on American support and incitement to continue the war. It was also expressed, without equivocation, by the US administration's policy, and Biden himself, with regard to Russia and Putin, as well as to the continuation of the war. Rather, as the world is intended to be, after the war in Ukraine, an economic, political and hostile war against Russia

With the outbreak of war in Ukraine, the Biden administration took off the silk gloves it was wearing, or painted deceptive smiles that hide its fangs that are now baring, in the face of Russia.

In no time at all, it began condemning Russia as an aggressor and a violator of international law in its war on Ukraine, and it did more than that in Iraq and Afghanistan, and supported all the wars of the Zionist entity against the Palestinians.

It did this not just by condemning Russia for its military invasion of Ukraine, as it seemed at first glance, but also by showing that it wants to wage an even decisive war against Russia through the Ukrainian army, and the blood of the Ukrainian people. Since 24/2/2022 until today, it has been inspiring and escalating the war against Russia on the battlefield through military, political and financial support, NATO mobilization, and the imposition of international isolation on it.

It left no room for stopping the war and reaching a truce, or bilateral negotiations between Russia and the government of Ukraine. Rather, it wants it to continue and escalate and the goal is Putin's head.

Otherwise, what is the meaning of taking the case to the International Court of Justice? What is the meaning of accusing Putin, and according to Biden himself, that he is a "war criminal". Then, of course, the economic and political sanctions imposed on Russia must be added, first by Russia, and then pressure on its allies to follow suit secondly.

This means that what is happening in Ukraine is not a war between Russia and the Ukrainian army, as its arena is, but rather the war between America and Russia, in the first place, and in substance, during and after it. Rather, this means that if the war finds a solution, through negotiations and mediation, and ends, it will be despite the American desire and policy on the one hand, while the American war against Russia will continue after that. how?

The sanctions and political boycott will continue, and Putin will be considered a "war criminal", and it will expand to sanctions against anyone who does not enter the war with it against Putin, and it will consider him an enemy.

If America proceeds with this strategy and policy that began in the Ukraine war, and continues with it until after the war, even with Russia’s exit from it strong and victorious, what will be achieved to stop the war (Ukraine’s neutrality), will lead to the division of the world into two major blocs, and then two parallel economic systems and warring parties, and to other divisions, or other third and fourth blocs, especially after the help of major regional countries intensified, such as Iran, Turkey, Brazil, India, South Africa, and others.

The Chinese-Russian quest to build a global economic system parallel to the dominance of the dollar and the Swift system.

This means that
The world after the Ukraine war, and because of US policies during it, and then the multi-polar world will transcend into a world of antagonistic polar blocs, the beginning of America and "NATO", versus Russia and China, with a multipolarity between them, and on their side. Of course, the details will not match this expectation.

Because what actually produces is always richer. But we must certainly forget our world that prevailed, before the war in Ukraine, to wait for the emergence of a completely different world. We should also forget America's relationship with Russia before the war in Ukraine.
