Fallacies of Ukraine Fighting for Europe and Independence
Before the war broke out in 2014, only 41% Ukrainians wanted to join the European Union – majority of them did not want to join the EU let alone fight for it!

Welcome to the peace initiative for Ukraine in which you can contibute by raising your awareness as well as your consciousness[+] and spirit to the modes[+] of neutrality[*], decency, respectfulness, wisdom[*], objectivity, mastery of the intellect, surrender (ego and mind to God’s will), and finally peace (inner then outer). To properly grasp everything, we recommend reading the articles of this peace initiative in the order that we[*] designed it, which is listed in the Contents. So if you haven’t read the previous articles, we urge you to do it, please. Did you read the this “Reality Checks” segment from the beginning? Please, do so for a better grasp of the topic of this article: The Real Beginning of the War in Ukraine.
In previous articles of the “Reality Checks” segment of this wisdom-driven peace initiative to raise both awareness and consciousness for the sake of ending the war in Ukraine, we exposed the fallacies of The Real Beginning of the War and Democracy vs. Autocracy Narrative and now it is turn to expose another fake reality. An even worse fallacy is that Ukrainian and NATO leaders are trying to sell it as if Ukraine is fighting not only for its own freedom, democracy, sovereignty, and territorial integrity but crucially for the whole of Europe and whole world as well as for its independence, which is, of course, all hogwash and propaganda to get the world to support them with more weapons and money (a cut of which goes to corrupt Ukrainian and US politicians).
Before we expose this false narrative, we need to highlight an important point here. While NATO propaganda with its puppet Kyiv regime1 try to convince everyone that Ukraine is fighting for Europe because it wants to be part of the EU, the facts punch a hole in that narrative. Unfortunately, most people do not bother to look into the facts and take the path of least effort or simplest course of action by naively succumbing to authorities’ propaganda. This is why we highlight the fact that before the war broke out in 2014 between Ukrainians and Russians in Donbas and even during the first years of the war, most Ukrainians did not want to join the EU. Let us repeat that: most Ukrainians did not want to join the EU! This is evidenced by the surveys conducted by Ukrainians, such as the KIIS surveys in October 2013[+] when only 41% would vote for the joining to European Union, in September 2015[+] and September 2016[+] when only 46% wanted to join the EU, and that was not even counting the Ukrainians living in Donbas and Crimea, majority of whom were against the EU, in favor of Eurasian Customs Union with Russia, which means that the percentage would be much smaller. In other words, just like its two-color flag, Ukraine was, portioned in two camps, at best, half of them for the EU and half of them for Russia.
Although Ukrainian authorities claim Ukraine having 1991 borders, the surveyors did not bother to ask the people in the regions where ethnic Russians live, such as Crimea and Donbas, which is unfair and does not represent the true stance of the whole of Ukraine, but even without taking their opinions into account, which would be a clear “against EU” and “pro Eurasian Customs Union”, most of other Ukrainians did not want to join the EU either, as only a minority – 46% wanted to join the EU in 2015 and 2016. If they asked properly the people from all regions of Ukraine, then, the percentage would be even smaller.
When the surveyors asked the people of all Ukrainian regions, before the 2014 Maidan revolution (when the US helped the pro-West ultranationalists come to power), according to a October 2013 KIIS poll[+], only 41% would vote for the joining to European Union.
And according to a June 2013 KIIS poll[+], 72% of Ukrainians wanted to have open borders with Russia, without visas and customs.
As the facts show, majority of Ukrainians did not want to join the EU let alone fight for it or die for it! So, do not believe Western-puppet Kyiv regime that Ukrainians are fighting for Europe!
European, that is, NATO states officials wanted to lure Ukrainians into joining them rather than Russia and its economic union (Eurasian Customs Union), so they orchestrated a regime change operation, a color revolution in November 2013 - February 2014, when they funded or bribed their corrupt puppets and helped them come to power. When they came to power, they started a psyop resulting in mass psychosis turning people into Russophobes with all sorts of narratives and scare-tactics, which artificially turned many people towards the EU and NATO. Naïve Ukrainians fell into mass psychosis as they became victims of a psyop from their fearmongering regime that escalated the conflict and provoked Russians to launch their special military operation (intended to end the war but with NATO warmongers and war profiteers meddling, it turned into a large-scale war).
By using Ukraine to expand NATO and American hegemony, the West has forced Ukraine into fighting not for its own freedom, democracy, sovereignty, and territorial integrity but for the interests of Europe and NATO. But they do not frame it like that, of course as they can't reveal their agenda. Ukraine is nothing but pawn in American geopolitical chess-game to preserve the US hegemony by weakening Russia. Ukrainians are indeed fighting for Europe and NATO part of the world but only to be used as NATO’s cannon fodder in NATO's proxy war[*][+] against Russia for NATO expansion.
The Western propagandists shout it from the rooftops how Ukraine is fighting for Europe but they do not reveal why is that really other than lying about Putin's imperial motives, which only stupid people can believe but unfortunately, there are too many fear-driven sheep among the Western public who fell for it and whose IQ is too low to realize that it is NATO that has imperial, expansionist agenda, not Russia.
There are countless instances[+][»] of such bizarre claims and we have all heard it a thousand times, so we will mention just a few of them:
– The Atlantic Council wrote an article[+] with a headline “The whole world would benefit from a Ukrainian victory over Russia”.
– In May 2023, the Ukrainian ambassador to France said[+]: “I demand an apology to my president and to Ukrainian people, who are suffering and fighting for their freedom, as well as for your freedom and for the opportunity to enjoy the easy life.” Why on Earth should the freedom of French people be threatened by Russians and how are Ukrainians fighting for the French to have the opportunity to enjoy an easy life?!!! He never bothered to back his claims with some evidence, as usual assuming moral and intellectual superiority to which we all should bow to without questioning.
– EU President Ursula von der Leyen on 24/02/2024[»]: “You saved your country. You saved all of Europe.” “There will be victory for Ukraine. There will be peace and prosperity. And there will be Europe," she added[+]. Was she saying that without Ukraine fighting Russia, there would be no Europe?
– Several times, Biden said[»][»] “If Putin takes Ukraine, he won't stop there… he’ll keep going. He's made that pretty clear.” When and where has Putin ever made that pretty clear?! Biden was only saying that, or lying that, to get the US Congress to approve his aid package for Ukraine (pitching in effect for the benefit of MIC2) and kept repeating it as a scare-tactic to garner support for his war effort. As he was further justifying the aid, he said that when Putin attacks another NATO country, then American troops would have to fight Russian troops. So, the whole point of supporting Ukraine has been all about avoiding that. Because, there is nothing the US fears more than that – to have the whole world see how Russians beat the Americans. There will be no greater humiliation for the US. Russians already beat them in Syria, so they know what to expect. The US military is in the worst state that has ever been, due to corruption (money allocated for arms production went to the pockets of corrupt politicians) and declining recruitment rate. So, Americans want to avoid direct confrontation with the Russians and therefore, out of fear of defeat and humiliation, more than anything else, they continue to support Ukraine and make it sound as if Ukraine is fighting for Europe, to save Europe from evil Putin.
– And the things that sometimes come out of Ukrainian warmongers’ mouths beg the question if they are either cunning or just plain dumb to believe such absurdities. Here is an extreme case in a video[»][»] with a Ukrainian woman stating that “the whole world must give their last thing and kneel before Ukraine because Ukraine is defending the entire civilized world right now with its body. Otherwise, these Russian idiots would attack Europe. It's a fact.” The extent to which people can be delusional or self-important is frightening. She is, of course, giving not a single piece of evidence for her claims. Ironically, she spoke in the Russian language, not Ukrainian.
Due to such fearmongering NATO propaganda, there is certainly a strong sense in Europe that Ukraine is fighting not only for its own freedom, sovereignty, and territorial integrity but crucially for the whole of Europe – this is obviously part of scare tactics to get the EU public to support war efforts against Russia. There will always be some fear-driven people to fall for such bullying but those who can think with their own heads will ask themselves when did ever Russia threaten the freedom, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of any NATO country. The US, UK, and some other NATO states have, in fact, done that on numerous occasions, so it's a clear case of projection. Ukraine was attacked after it killed almost 14.000[+][+][+] ethnic Russians. If any other country, including any NATO state, plans to kill or violate the human rights of ethnic Russians, then they should indeed feel threatened by Russia. Therefore, any head of state who envisions a Russian attack must be guilty of severely harming Russians, otherwise no reason for panic unless they invent or provoke the “Russian threat” to line their own pockets by war-profiteers.
In January 2024, Zelensky revealed his motive for pushing this narrative: “Please strengthen our economy - and we will strengthen your security.” So, it is part of his fundraising pitch – anywhere he goes, he uses fearmongering to get sponsors to give him what he wants or needs – money and weapons. Fear tactics are often used in marketing and sales pitches evoking fear or anxiety within clients to drive them to take action but only crooks use them. When genuine arguments fail to produce results, conmen resort to lies and fearmongering. Often, these strategies aim to capitalize on existing public fears by suggesting that some undesirable outcome will occur if they don't take action. While fear-based campaigns can successfully drive short-term deals, they come with many risks. As research shows, using fear tactics often result in public resentment towards the fearmongers, which usually leads to decreased loyalty and reputation damage over time.
Apart from relying on fear tactics for their fundraising efforts, Ukrainians have used all other means possible to get the support, such as they have utilized hope for positive outcomes (inflated their triumphs while concealing all their defeats and losses, giving impression they are winning although they were losing all the time) and fostered long-term relationships (regular talks about joining the EU and NATO). NATO think thanks that identified their target audience's (politicians, policy makers, reporters, the public, soldiers…) values, needs, and desires and NATO propaganda machine has been providing Kyiv and NATO authorities with talking points and helped them craft and convey the messages that inspire motivation through fear, anxiety or dread whenever the hopium is sold-out or the harsh reality on the ground crashed hope. However, using fear for fundraising purposes isn't a good idea, just as autocrats lying about fighting for democracy is also a bad idea, since truth has a way to come out eventually. Using fear to build relationships is ill-advised by those with a low IQ[+].
“We are dying for you too”– Zelensky to a German reporter[+], without justifying it
“The future architecture of global European security is impossible without Ukraine. Ukraine will be the guarantor of such security.” – Zelensky in Parliament[»] Zelensky is like one of those scamming telemarketers, just on a global scale.
"Ukrainian blood is being shed to prevent a Russian attack on other EU countries.”[+] – Polish PM Mateusz Morawiecki – of course with no evidence for his claim and no motive why would Russia attack other EU countries.
In January 2023, pushing for military support, Sweden’s Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson made an unfounded statement[»][+]: “Ukrainian victory is existential for Europe… The fate of Ukraine is also the fate of Europe.” No justifications were provided, as usual.
“We will support Ukraine as long as necessary, because it is fighting not only for its security, but also for our values and security”[»] – President of the European Parliament Roberta Metsola
“America’s security is at risk …it’s a matter of honor and security for America.” – US Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin[+][+][+] in March 2024 – how is supporting and funding a war in Ukraine or Europe "a matter of security for America"?” Was he trying to make us believe that Russia is planning to attack America? These guys are just losing all credibility with talking nonsense!
Ukraine is indeed fighting not just for its interests but for those of the NATO. Ukraine serves as a pawn in American geopolitical chess-game to preserve the US hegemony by weakening Russia. Ukrainians are nothing but NATO’s cannon fodder in NATO's proxy war against Russia[+], for which we provide evidence in aother article[*].
In April 2022, NATO leaders prevented Ukraine to sign a peace deal in Istanbul,[+][+] as confirmed by those who mediated peace talks[+][+] in March 2022 – former German Chancellor Schröder[+][+], Israeli PM Bennett[+], Turkish Foreign Minister Cavusoglu[+], President Putin[+][+], the Ukrainian[+][+][»][»][+][+] and Russian[+][+] delegations, WSJ[+], and others[+][+].
Therefore, Ukrainians believe they have every right to demand all the aid from NATO without showing much gratitude as some NATO officials expect it and reproach Zelensky for being ungrateful[+][+][»][+].
Gratitude is indeed a virtue that Ukrainians are known to lack, especially among the fellow Eastern Slavs3, but in relation to NATO, perhaps it is NATO that ought to be more grateful to Ukraine because Ukraine is making such enormous sacrifices for NATO's interests and even risking its existence.
Let us not forget that it is NATO's fault that Ukraine found itself in a war because NATO's hostile expansion to Russia's borders as well as many other things[*][*]:
· In April 2022, out of their interests, some NATO states’ leaders pressured Zelensky to back off from peace agreements with Russia, which his delegates already signed[+], whereby NATO obliged itself to fully support Ukraine as long as it takes.
· in 2013, the EU with its then-President Barroso took NATO’s ‘divide and rule’ ploy to a new level by coercing Ukrainians to pick a side between the EU and Russia when proposing the anti-Russian European Union–Ukraine Association Agreement[+], which started a revolution in 2014 and the whole Russo-Ukrainian conflict that escalated into a bloody war.
· In 2008, as deliberate provocation against Russia, NATO opened the door for Ukraine (and Georgia) to join the alliance despite the fierce opposition from Russia but also some NATO leaders[+] (former German Chancellor Angela Merkel and ex-French President Nicolas Sarkozy).
· Even before that, in 2004-2005, the West also orchestrated the earlier Orange Revolution in Ukraine and installed its puppet as a President who then applied to join NATO upon NATO’s enticement and NATO spreading Russophobia[+] there. Zelensky even accidentally admitted it when in November 2023, he said[+] Russia was planning a coup to overthrow him describing a plan known internally as “Maidan 3,” which shows that Kyiv has admitted that the first two Maidans4 (Orange and Maidan “revolutions”) were also (Western) coups, otherwise they would not call it “Maidan 3”.
There are many leaders among NATO states who have jumped on the Kyiv bandwagon by fearmongering their gullible public with fictional and somewhat hysterical statements of imminent threat of Russian attacks on NATO countries. Among them are leaders from Baltic states[+][+][+][»], Netherlands[+], Sweden[+], Germany[+][+][+], the UK[+], Romania[+][+][!], Poland[»][+][+][+], and Denmark[+][+] who have been warning their citizens since January 2024 to prepare for a war with Russia but not a single one of them provided any evidence to back up their claims but are probably just taking orders from their master Biden who warned[+] in December 2023 that “if Putin takes Ukraine, he won’t stop there” as he was calling on US Congress to pass Ukraine aid (using lies and fearmongering to get the funds from Congress). He keeps on repeating it[»]. Biden himself is most likely a puppet of the war-profiteers of the US military cartel, who regularly come up with such slogans that perpetuate funding the war and them. In February 2024, the Pentagon chief, Austin, reported[»][+] that NATO will be fighting Russia if Ukraine fails because Russia will not stop and will attack neighboring countries, primarily the Baltic countries – he provided no evidence to back his claim.
NARRATIVE[+]:
2022: NATO will save Ukraine!
2024: Ukraine will save NATO!
On the contrary, Russian authorities[+], including Putin[+][+][»][+], Peskov[+], and Medvedev[+] have dismissed all allegations of Russia planning to attack any NATO countries.
Tucker Carlson[»]: “Can you imagine a scenario where you send Russian troops to Poland?” Vladimir Putin: “Only one case: if Poland attacks Russia. Why? Because we have no interest in Poland, Latvia, or anywhere else.”
Asked by Tucker if he has “territorial aims across the continent,” Putin said[»][+] that “it is absolutely out of the question. You don’t need to be an analyst to understand that getting involved in a global war goes against common sense. A global war would bring all of humanity to the brink of destruction.” Putin further argued that Western governments are using “scare tactics” to convince their taxpayers to provide more money to “weaken Russia” (drain its military resources) in Ukraine and elsewhere. Western countries are “trying to intimidate their own population with an imaginary Russian threat,” Putin said[+].
"As for the allegations that we are planning to invade Europe after Ukraine, this is utter nonsense meant solely to intimidate their population to make them pay more money," Putin said[+][»] on another occasion.
Later, end of March 2024, Putin said[+] that If Ukrainian-operated F-16 jets fly sorties from third countries, those countries will be legitimate targets for Russia. Ukraine has no adequate airfields from which F-16 could fly, so if they fly from Poland, Romania, or any other NATO countries, Russian authorities warned they will be bombed. If NATO countries fear Russian attack, it may be because they plan to fly F-16 jets from NATO to attack the Russians. In other words, the threat does not initiate from Russia but from NATO, as usual.
Even NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has clearly stated on several occasions, including recently[+][+][+] that there is no threat from Russia against allies, although he has been contradicting[+] himself about that, too.
Also, on 29 March 2024, Admiral Rob Bauer, Chairman of the NATO Military Committee, told[+] The Baltic Times reporters in Riga: “There are currently no indications that Russia is planning to invade any NATO country”!
Also, many European high officials denied allegations of Russian threat to Europe, such as French Member of European Parliament Thierry Mariani in May 2024[+]: “Russia does not pose a threat to either France or Europe… Russia wants to protect itself.”
When the US and its allies claim "If Putin isn't stopped in Ukraine, NATO countries will be next", it's the same "domino theory" they used to get Americans into Vietnam war. And we all know how that turned out, right?
Now we know for sure, due to evidence, that all the fearmongering about alleged Russian attack on NATO states was nothing but NATO's scheme to have a justification to strike Russia. Upon NATO states allowing Ukraine to use NATO missiles and covert militaries (only NATO militants know how to operate those missiles) to strike the territory of Russia in November 2024, which was exposed by Russian authorities as an direct attack of NATO military as Ukrainians cannot launch those missiles themselves but need NATO specialists to conduct it, Chair of the NATO Military Committee Admiral Rob Bauer (the same “intelligent” guy who around the same time “intelligently” claimed[+] that Russia's army was bigger than two years ago but quality has decreased as if, in Bauer's twisted logic, all Russian military inventions served to degrade the army, not to mention all the experience and training Russian forces had had in the meantime) has openly campaigned[+][+][+][+][+] for an open NATO's preemptive attack on Russia and to prepare for a “wartime scenario”[+][+][+] but in his lack of intelligence, he and his warmongering NATO team, could not grasp that by justifying their preemptive attack on Russia, they in fact were justifying Russia’s preemptive attack on Ukraine! There is no room for double standards in law, therefore, if NATO is alleging to have a legal right to attack Russia due to alleged threat posed by Russia, then for all the same basic reasons, Russia had also every right to conduct a preemptive attack on Ukraine due to threat posed by Ukraine.
A threat posed by Ukraine was explained in the segment on Ukrainian Provocations[*], thus briefly: Ukraine started pursuing to join anti-Russian NATO alliance and in March 2021, President Zelensky issued a decree[+] no. 117/2021[+] for the recapture of the Crimea[+] (despite the fact that Crimea has become a part of Russia after the Crimean people democratically voted to secede from Ukraine and rejoin Russia, whereby exercising their right to self-determination) by military measures[+][+] and on 23 August 2021, he held an summit (attended by delegations from 46 countries)[ꚛ], he again pledged[+][+] to return Russia-annexed Crimea subsequently gathering troops for an offensive – amassing 122.000[+]-125.000 troops[+][+] troops near Ukraine's border and increased the attacks on the ethnic Russians there, according to OSCE Special Monitoring Mission[+][+]. On 1 February 2022, Ukraine formed[+] the Territorial Defense Forces (TDF) as the new branch of the Armed Forces serving as a military reserve force to “deoccupy” Crimea and Donbas. Also, just days before Russia launched its SMO, on 19 February 2022 at Munich Security Conference, Zelensky threatened[+][+] to seek nuclear weapons against Russia if not accepted into NATO alliance, which is why Russian authorities felt compelled to intervene. Ukrainian menace and not just threat was manifest in them shelling millions of civilians (Russian ethnic minority) in Donbas, many[+][+] of whom were also Russian citizens (with dual citizenship) and killing thousands of them. Not to mention that 20 September-1 October 2021, Ukraine held military drills with US and NATO troops[+]
Another show of the lack of intelligence of warmongering NATO officials like Bauer in this context is the fact that they could not grasp that a preemptive strike would not stop anything but rather start a retaliatory strike from Russia that has a reactive strike capability with their hypersonic weapons, which NATO has no capability to shoot down while Russia has the capability to shoot down most of NATO's missiles, clearly indicating who would come out as a winner. And not to even mention how NATO is evidently escalating the war and provoking a nuclear war, which suits their globalist ruling classes who all have their luxury bunkers in place and have been pushing for depopulation agenda (devised by their think thank The Club of Rome[»][+] – solving pressing global issues with a Master Plan using measures for depopulation…).
Evidence That NATO Is Planning to Attack Russia
The proof that NATO leaders are just projecting are many pieces of evidence that it is actually them who are planning to attack Russia! There is plenty of evidence of an impending Western attack on Russia and Russians:
➡ August 2024, NATO-funded and armed Ukraine illegally5 invaded Russia by using NATO weapons, intelligence, and troops/mercenaries from NATO countries[ꚛ][ꚛ][ꚛ][»][»][+]
➡ June 2024, in Berlin, representatives of left-wing parties discussed global problems. German Social Democrats said[+][+] that “we need to defeat Russia on the battlefield.”
➡ The Russian embassy in Lithuanian capital Vilnius has been subjected to attempted firebombings[+] two nights in a row in April 2024 – Molotov cocktails were being tossed at the Russian diplomatic mission.
➡ In March 2024, German politician Kiesewetter wants, like Defense Minister Pistorius, to empower Ukraine to take the war to Russia, to attack Moscow! He said[»] the Defense ministry and FSB headquarters in Moscow should be attacked. If Russians did the same and bombed the Lithuanian embassy, would that be acceptable to “civilized” NATO?
➡ A leaked audio recording[+][»] from February 2024 is evidence that Germany is planning to conduct strikes on Russian territory. In it, high-ranking German Bundeswehr officers were discussing long-range missile strikes on Russia’s territory, including on the Crimean Bridge[»], which also proved that Germany is a direct participant in this war and exposed the deceptive rhetoric about Germany’s non-involvement in the conflict. Imagine if an audio leaked with Russian generals plotting to strike German territory! Would that be acceptable? But somehow, in a showcase of double standards, the Western public was not outraged by this leaked truth of NATO authorities plotting to strike Russia. UK foreign secretary, former PM, David Cameron said[»] that “As long as we're not in the situation where a NATO soldier is killing a Russian soldier we are not causing escalation” – by his definition this is escalation then. It is them who are escalating, not Russians.
➡ In February 2024, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz let it slip[+][+] that British and French military personnel have been sent to Ukraine as part of highly classified missions to aid Ukrainian forces in operating their missiles against Russian targets, which was also confirmed by a leaked call between German commanders[»]. At the same time, The Times reported[+][+] that British military chief Admiral Tony Radakin supervised attacks on Russian war ships of the Black Sea Fleet, which also proves that the UK is direct participants in this war. NATO forces are clearly already attacking Russia!
➡ In February 2024, French President Emmanuel Macron claimed[+] first the possibility of European countries sending their troops to Ukraine to kill the Russians in annexed Russian territories. Then he confirmed[+] that the prospect of sending Western troops to Ukraine was intentional, and later again by urging[+] Ukraine’s allies not to be “cowards” in supporting its fight against the Russians. One commentator remarked: “Macron is a child and wannabe Napoleon who loves to play with his toy soldiers”, others call him Micron or Macaron.
➡ Since January 2024, for many months, NATO has been conducting unprecedented military exercise “Steadfast Defender 2024”[+], the largest military exercise in Europe since the Cold War with approximately 90.000 troops from all 32 NATO Allies. They were clearly preparing to attack Russia under the pretense of mere military exercise.
➡ Circumstantial evidence is the fact that NATO has been already attacking many other countries in recent years, such as Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, Afghanistan, Serbia, Iraq, etc. – which is why Russia has every right to defend itself from them as they do not hide their hostility towards Russia. The only reason why NATO has not attacked Russia just as they attacked all the other countries, it is because Russia has nuclear weapons.
Therefore, all this “threats of Russian attacks on NATO countries” narrative is a clear case of what is in social sciences known under various terms such as projecting[+][+], deflection[+], gaslighting[+], diversion[+] and so forth, signifying a psyop[+][+] method to blame others for own faults. When someone turns the story around to make it seem like someone else is at fault, deflecting attention and blame away from them to make someone else feel guilty, this type of manipulation is called gaslighting[+]. Accusing others of one's own behavior is a classic gaslighter's act[+].
The reasons for such fearmongering were manifold. Besides urging the US Congress to pass Ukraine aid, since the US Democrats have no intention of relinquishing power, in the months running up to the US presidential election have been filled with all sorts of aggressive posturing aimed square at Russia, with the goal of convincing the public that Western Europe is about to be invaded by Russian forces, which allegedly only Democrats can counter. These ludicrous projections of an imminent Russian invasion of NATO came also just in time as NATO member states were ramping up the fear factor by conducting their largest military exercises[+] in a decade on Ukraine’s border with Germany and Poland with some 90.000 troops from all 31 member states, as well as Sweden – in order to kick start military drills it’s about selling war to the people[+] and the motivation for those troops. Also, talk about imminent war with Russia was meant to help the EU members divert attention from domestic troubles[+] as farmers’ protests[+] were raging all over the EU with the huge economic repercussions. At the same time, claims of an allegedly imminent conflict with Moscow was also meant to help to justify continued funding for Kyiv as the support fatigue grew.
So, Washington and Brussels invented the “Russian threat,” only to get the US Congress and fear-driven European leaders to channel money into the pockets of the warlords of the US military industrial complex, which provides weapons for the US wars across the globe to preserve the US hegemony by force.
The circumstantial evidence that they are deliberately lying about a threat of a Russian attack on NATO in near future is the fact that for two years they have been bombarding us with the reports about how Putin has lost, how weak Russia is, how its economy, industry and military are in tatters”[+][»], how they are going to run out of missiles[+][+][»][+] and military vehicles[+][+] any day now – so how is Russian military going to hitch a ride to various NATO states – hitchhiking? As Americans Judge Napolitano and Aaron Mate (a reporter from Grayzone) commented[»] on it, this narrative “Putin has lost” then followed with “If Putin takes Ukraine, he will attack NATO countries” is worse than propaganda; it is madness.
They are telling us constantly how a much smaller Ukraine is defeating Russia on the battlefields but want us to believe that Russia will then for no particular reason attack the biggest military alliance in the history of humankind? Obviously, they are contradicting themselves but, sadly, low IQ members of the public are buying all this nonsense, trembling with fear and hatred.
Polish Foreign Minister Sikorski also dismissed[+][+] a threat from Russia in an interview with Radio Liberty on 23 January 2024 as he doesn’t believe that Russia will have enough resources to launch military aggression against NATO countries.
What NATO's representatives and spin masters (official and in the guise of academics and think tank experts), politicians, and journalists who were jointly laying down this narrative barrage omitted to convey to their public is that in the event of the actual war between NATO and Russia, all their military exercises are in vain because such war would be not a military war but a nuclear war!
A full-scale war between Russia and NATO would leave Moscow with no choice but to deploy its nuclear assets, former president and deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council Dmitry Medvedev has said[+]. Medvedev warned that a possible Moscow-NATO war would be drastically different to the Ukraine conflict and would not rely on the use of artillery, tanks, and drones. He noted that NATO alliance has a combined population of nearly one billion people and defense spending reaching $1.5 trillion, making it far superior to Russia. “Since our military capabilities are incomparable, we will simply have no choice. The response will be asymmetrical. To protect the territorial integrity of our country, ballistic and cruise missiles with special warheads will be used... This will be the proverbial Apocalypse. The end of everything.” Against this backdrop, he urged Western politicians to tell their voters the “bitter truth” about what would happen in the event of war with Russia instead of “treating them like brainless idiots.”
However, since the agenda of the Western globalists is “The Great Reset”[+], which entails depopulation, and the elites have their fancy bunkers, the prospect of a nuclear war might be their vision of solution for allegedly overpopulated Earth, above all overcrowded with certain people who are insubordinate to Western hegemons, who are set out to create of one world state – a global government ruled by the Western white supremacists. BRICS+ countries are messing up their plans.
Globalists are eugenicists[+] who consider millions of deaths to be collateral damage, which serves their “higher” purpose and depopulation agenda. According to self-serving, delusional globalists, planet Earth can't sustain its current population number, which is why they welcome (and even provoke) any depopulation mechanisms and conditions including wars, pandemics, nuclear catastrophes, forced sterilization (of “inferior” immigrants), free birth control[+], using condoms, infertility measures[»], porn and masturbation to avoid sexual contact, giving rights and prominence to childless LGBT+ communities[+], etc. The most peculiar is the fact that depopulation is occurring only in Eastern Europe, mostly by Slavs! Have a look at this map below[ꚛ] showing population change in Europe and adjacent countries since the collapse of the socialist bloc until the beginning of the SMO – why are Slavs being depopulated and who is behind this Nazi-like agenda? How Jesuits (a.k.a. Illuminati) are behind the war in Ukraine and how all roads lead to Rome (Jesuits HQ) will be explained in a separate article[*].
With all that being said, if or when Ukraine and indirectly NATO lose this war, Russia may indeed attack other European countries but not to occupy or conquer them as we are led to believe. As we will provide all the evidence in one of the following articles[*] of this segment, this is NATO's proxy war[*][+] against Russia, therefore, if Russia wins and NATO loses, Russia may insist on NATO contracting to its pre-1997 borders. Russia has always had issues with NATO's eastward expansion and emboldened by its victory, it will demand a new security framework in Europe through which not only NATO's but also Russia's security is warranted. If NATO continues to refuse it, Russia may have no other choice but to attack NATO's military bases in Eastern European countries that joined NATO after 1997, when the NATO-Russia Founding Act[+] was signed. This is why NATO leaders see this war as existential but it is only threatening the existence of the NATO military bloc, not the existence of any European country and their people.
Vladimir Putin said to Tucker Carlson[»] that the only one case when he might send Russian troops to attack a NATO country such as Poland would be if it attacks Russia. However, if you ask us, there are also some other possible scenarios or motives for Russia to launch a provoked attack on a NATO country:
· if NATO states start doing the same as Ukraine, such as killing ethnic Russians in their countries or violating their human rights as Ukraine did (e.g. they prohibited them from freely speaking Russian language as Kyiv regime banned it from 30 spheres of life6 although Ukraine is a bilingual country and it was against their Constitution and treaties with Russia). Some Baltic states already started expelling (ethnic cleansing) many ethnic Russians who are natives there (not immigrants) and discriminating against them. For example, in 2022, the Latvian parliament adopted[+] legislation that all Russian nationals must prove their command of the Latvian language by September 2023, or face deportation. In February 2024, Riga confirmed that it plans to deport 985 Russians for either not taking or failing the language test. Needless to say, the announcement raised eyebrows in Moscow and Putin pointed out the parallels between what is happening now in Latvia and what happened in the Donbass, which led to this war. We are not suggesting Russia would start a nuclear war over mass deportations of Russian but such deportations never happen in a vacuum, so it may lead to a conflict that may escalate into an armed conflict, triggering Article 5 of NATO treaty – NATO's joined response.
· Another Russia‘s motive might be if NATO places long-range missiles or nuclear weapons across Russian borders. Perhaps NATO officials plan to do that and therefore are warning about possible attack from Russia. Russians will not tolerate it and if NATO doesn’t withdraw, Russia has every right to defend itself from NATO’s threat. Just look at what NATO did to their lesser enemies – bombarding and occupying Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, as well as Libya and Serbia…
· Another Russia‘s motive might be if NATO flies F-16s from a NATO country to attack the Russians in five annexed regions of ex-Ukraine, which Russia now considers part of Russia. Russia warned[+] that if F-16s would be used, they will be treated as nuclear threats because F-16s can accommodate certain nuclear weapons. Any NATO attacks on Russia will be a motive for Putin to attack that country from which the attacks come from. So, if F-16 fly from a Romania’s airfield, then Russia may attack Romania.
· Another Russia‘s motive might be if NATO attempts again at regime change in Russia, like they attempted in 2011-2013, 2017/2018, 2019, 2021 by funding and backing protests led by Navalny and other Western puppets. The US and West are notorious for their regime changes and attempts at regime changes[+], such as recent failed attempts of US-orchestrated and sponsored coups and protests in Belarus in 2005, 2006, 2011, 2017, and 2020/2021, Moldova in 2005 and 2009, Hungary in 2006, 2011, 2014, 2018, and 2024, Syria ongoing since 2011, Turkey in 2016 and 2023, Kazakhstan in 2022, Venezuela in 2019 and 2023, Georgia in 2023, Serbia in 2023, and many more, using Western or US puppets. Many undemocratic and violent US-backed regime changes were successful such as the 2000 Yugoslavia Revolution, the Rose Revolution in Georgia in 2003, the 2004/2005 Orange Revolution in Ukraine, the Tulip Revolution in Kyrgyzstan in 2005, 2011 Libya "Arab Spring", the 2014 Maidan Revolution in Ukraine, Velvet Revolution in Armenia in 2018, Romania in 2017-2019, Bulgaria in 2013 and 2020/2021, American military intervention in Somalia (ongoing since 2007), the US Defense Department's program to aid Kurdish rebels fighting the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), Sri Lanka in 2022, Pakistan in 2023, Bangladesh in 2024, etc. So, no wonder Putin might prevent that in Russia by attacking the NATO countries that might be involved in it.
Ukrainians are making colossal sacrifices paying with their lives and lost territories but they are not doing it for the freedom, democracy, sovereignty, and territorial integrity of Europe but initially for NATO's aspiration to weaken or contain Russia and expand to Ukraine so as to take control of the Sevastopol navy base in Crimea to be in charge of Black Sea region for trade and geopolitical purposes.
However, now that NATO is losing its proxy war[*][+] against Russia, Russia is likely to dismantle NATO forcing it to shrink back to the status of 1991 (when NATO leaders promised “there would be no extension of NATO’s jurisdiction for forces of NATO one inch to the east”[+pg.6]).
This means that Ukraine is fighting for the territorial integrity of the NATO military bloc, not Europe or any NATO country, which has nothing to do with preserving the freedom, democracy, or sovereignty of any European nation. Russia has shown no intention to occupy any European countries or deprive European people of their freedom and democracy, as the Kyiv regime and NATO propagandists present it to the naïve and gullible segment of the European population. All Russia wants is to protect its folk from the threat of hostile NATO states that keep on expanding their military bases with missiles and WMD7 across Russian borders.
It must be stressed that it is NATO, not Russia, that keeps on expanding and attacking other countries (that pose no threat to them) to change regimes. Russia, on the other hand, is only defending itself and its diaspora (Russian ethnic minorities in neighboring countries – Ukraine, Georgia, and Moldavia – who were being discriminated against and killed after NATO changed regimes there and installed its puppet regimes) as well as defending their allies (e.g. Syria) from NATO attacks (attempting forced, undemocratic regime changes). Russia is not building military bases on the US borders or the borders of any NATO states – it is the other way around; NATO states are doing it on Russian borders.
Ukrainians are making all these sacrifices for the sole purpose of being accepted in the EU and its military bloc NATO but to no avail, as the West does not want them (the West has been rejecting them since 2008[+] when Ukraine first applied to join); they just want to use and exploit them. After all, this is precisely why Ukrainians got involved in Euromaidan protests and revolution in 2014 and why the Kyiv regime has stepped up its anti-Russian line (risking losing territories with Russian ethnic minorities) according to the demands of the West. But the Western leaders keep on making false promises (carrot-on-a-stick8[+][ꚛ]) and giving insufficient aid to Ukraine only to fool Ukrainians into further playing as their pawns in their rivalry “chess game” (as Zbigniew Brzezinski[+] devised it and explained in The Grand Chessboard, a book viewed by many as a blueprint for US world domination) against Russia and China, the two countries in Eurasia that are disrupting the Western agenda of world domination.
Only corrupt or dumb fools may fall for NATO leaders' bluff so long (since 2008) as they are constantly giving them false hopes only to deceive Ukrainians into making further sacrifices as their pawns, to fight in NATO's proxy war[*][+] against Russia and before that in Kosovo, Afghanistan, and Iraq[»].
Ukrainians seem to be the best American serfs in the world, servile henchmen who in their mindless obedience, seem not to use their brains much. How proud Ukrainian nationalists got into this servitude and find it even more preferable than being under much milder Russian influence is anyone guess but, because we refuse to believe that Ukrainians are that stupid, we are prepared to wager our last penny that some serious mind control, bribery, or blackmail has been conducted here.
NATO was initially using Ukrainians to die for NATO's cause to weaken and contain its foe Russia but now that Russia proved to be stronger than NATO, they need Ukraine to fight for them not to be dismantled by Russia. Sadly, the Kyiv regime is too corrupt and bigheaded to see it, which is why they foolishly force their poor, unsuspecting folk to keep on making all those sacrifices. Or maybe the Kyiv heads know it but play along out of self-interest as they line their pockets with Western bribes.
The proof that much of NATO aid ends up in their pockets is provided by the fact that the White House opposes independent oversight and audit of Ukraine aid[+][+]. The Biden Administration opposes section 1222[+], which would establish another inspector general to oversee Ukraine's assistance – to conduct the critical task of ensuring accountability for the assistance that the US Congress authorized and appropriated for Ukraine. American taxpayers have the right to demand independent, trustful accountability mechanisms, including third-party monitors apart from the oversight being conducted by the US Congress but the White House is blocking that for some curious or obvious reason.
Naturally, not all of the misplaced aid ended up in Zelensky's clique’s pockets as much of it ended up also in the pockets of those Washington crooks who have been bribing the Kyiv players. The fact that billions of dollars in “accounting error” in Pentagon and the US Department of Defense[+] aid to Ukraine surfaced a couple of times indicates some monkey business there.
The US-puppet regime was put in place in Kyiv not based on their competence but on their willingness to take bribes to serve US or Western interests, thus, naturally, they are not the sharpest tools in the shed9. The current regime headed by a former (and present) actor is filled with corrupt, unintelligent people who are probably not smart enough to realize they are being played by the US-led NATO to harm Ukraine. Since Zelensky had no education and experience in politics, diplomacy, or leadership, he got funding for his presidential campaign (from his former boss who was in exile in the US at the time) based on his acting skills and willingness to play the role his masters/sponsors want him to play. His level of consciousness and intelligence, like that of the rest of the corrupt regime consisting of Western puppets, is so low that they are either greedy or so unintelligent that they can't discern they are being fooled by the West to exploit and ruin their country, not just Russia.
Before the SMO started no one beyond Europe even knew where Ukraine was, and in all of Europe, Ukrainians have been known as cheap labor10, as “toilet cleaners” and “dish washers” here in the EU or Germany while Ukrainian women are known as “prostitutes”[+], “gold-diggers”, and “surrogate mothers” (in what is also known as a baby farming industry and baby factories). Now the West pretends to care about them only to push their own interests, caring little how many of them die because to the West, they are just pawns in this proxy war[*][+]. There are only two nations to whom Ukrainians are more than cheap labor or pawns – Russia and Belarus. To Russians[+], Ukrainians have always been and will always be brothers, sisters, and neighbors.
Fallacy of Ukraine Fighting for Independence
Another fallacy is Ukraine having and defending its independence. There are many foolhardy claims[+][+][+][+][+][+][+][+] that Ukraine is fighting for independence, which is yet another propaganda slogans that is working only on the ignorant who are oblivious to the fact that Ukraine is fighting for its dependence on NATO and the Western powers! Only fools may believe that Ukraine is independent, as its existence has been and will be for decades[+] totally dependent on Western aid – this much is clear.
Kyiv is notorious for being infiltrated with corrupt politicians serving the US’ and EU’s interests. The magnitude of the Western influence has been extremely high ever since 1991 but it spiked after Western-backed revolutions in 2004 and 2014. Unfortunately, the US has managed to successfully polarize Ukrainian society by driving a wedge between pro-Russian and pro-Western groups. In their “divide and rule” ploy, American propaganda has been using every opportunity to push certain parts of the society against each other so that they could just take over. Most of the Ukrainian natural resources have been in Western (mostly American) hands, as corrupt Kyiv regime has sold the country off. By antagonizing Russia, Ukraine is totally dependent on the West, just as planned by the Western schemers.
We want to add a very important fact to that matter: there is no such thing as an independent country. No state is independent, particularly no NATO states, especially the EU states, as they are forced to comply with the rules made by others. The US is not independent either. It could not run its aggressive foreign policies without the support of European states. If the EU leaves NATO, the US will be finished. The US economy relies on Europe pouring money into the US military-industrial complex (MIC) and manpower for American-led invasions or incursions or interventions around the world to topple insubordinate governments that are not compliant with the American agenda (neoliberalism, “democracy”, exploitation of natural resources, etc.) securing American interests and hegemony around the world. Without European funding of NATO (2% of GDP) and the US MIC, the American military establishment would collapse and could not maintain the US hegemony in the world. The point is, the concept of independence is an illusion. Everybody needs each other. So, alleged fighting for independence is just another slogan of NATO and Ukrainian propaganda.

we refer to Kyiv as a regime[+] due to its oppressive and repressive policies, corruption, and foul treatment of its ethnic minorities, such as the ethnic Russians, violating their human rights, tyrannizing, and killing them since 2014.
Eastern Slavs consist of Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. There are also Western Slavs (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland) and Southern Slavs (Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Serbia, and Slovenia).
two Maidans (Orange and Maidan “revolutions”) — a reference to the central square in Kyiv called Maidan that was the focal point of uprisings in 2004 and 2014 - both were funded and orchestrated by the US and EU
illegal according to Ukraine's Constitution, as the invasion of the Kursk region violates the laws of Ukraine. The martial law has been introduced only on the territory of Ukraine, so all law enforcement agencies can only act within the borders of Ukraine. To act beyond their borders, a declaration of war or the adoption of some law is required, which has not been done
Kyiv regime banned the use of Russian language in 30 spheres of public life – public administration, electoral process, referendums, courts, schools/education, science, theatres and other culture, media, economic and social life, health and care institutions, activities of political parties etc.; Ukrainian mandatory for civil servants, soldiers, doctors, and teachers – all of which is violation of human rights as well as the Article 12 of the Friendship, Cooperation and Partnership Treaty with Russia[?+ENpg.33].
The restrictive policies started since 2014 and culminated in 2019 with the language law that prohibits employees of restaurants, cafes, bars, shops, banks, hospitals and other similar institutions from talking to visitors in Russian language[+], the citizen can no longer contact or send letters to the officials and authorities of higher levels in Russian language; identity documents can no longer be issued in Russian language...
In a country in which 30%[+] of people – 14,3 million people declared Russian as their native language in the last national census; 8,3 million[+] of them identified as ethnic Russians, if your native language is Russian and you don’t speak Ukrainian, would you protest the regime that passes such laws? And if you protest it but you are called a “terrorist” because you protest it and government sends the National Guard packed with neo-Nazis to kill or terrorize you and all your family, friends, and neighbors, would you like to separate from that regime, or not?
Although 30%[+] of Ukrainians declared Russian as their native language in the last national census, even more or most of them – 50% of Ukrainian social media users posted in Russian language (46% in Ukrainian and 4% in English), as data collected[+] on Instagram showed in January 2022.
WMD = weapon of mass destruction
Carrot on a stick is an idiom that refers to a policy of offering a reward for making progress toward a goal but not necessarily ever actually delivering. Ukraine is supposed to be a donkey with the NATO chief holding a long stick with a carrot
not the sharpest tools in the shed[+] = not intelligent; dumb; birdbrained; thickheaded; brainless; mentally challenged; simple-minded. Intelligent or wise people do not accept bribes or play by foreigners' rules
Ukrainians seen as cheap labor — in Germany, for instance, you will find no Ukrainian having a decent job such as a doctor, lawyer, manager, IT consultant, or anything like that because Ukrainians have ben treated there as third class citizens given only the type of jobs Germans do not want to take like cleaners and caretakers. Perhaps, similar to Mexicans in the US.
