“NATO has a strategic defeat”. Exclusive interview with gen. Marco Bertolini

The Editorial board of the AntiDiplomatico  


Interview exclusive de L Antidiplomatico to the jan. Marco Bertolini 

General, NATO, founded with the assumptions of a defensive alliance, seems to have been radically transformed by the war in Ukraine. You can say, according to her, that NATO is looking for a new life, betting on the permanent war?  

The transformation is prior to the last war. Already with the end of the Cold War a defensive alliance against an enemy which was surrendered had not more sense. Germany at that time was abandoned by most of the international contingent, the occupied, not only in its own partition, the eastern and communist, but also in that of the west. All that remained was a strong presence in the united states, confirmation of the interest of Washington to maintain grip on the Old Continent. The Atlantic Alliance, for its part seemed to be another function, passing from the common defence for the export of the western model and american, with the so-called peace operations, first of all the one in the Balkans, in which there arose a new “wall of Berlin” in Bosnia between the croat-muslim Federation, supported by Nato and the Republika Srpska which is supported by Belgrade. Subsequently, another wall was erected to divide Kosovo and Serbia, taking advantage of the helplessness Russian to protect the interests of its ally in the Balkans.

But it is certainly now, with the war in Ukraine, Nato shows more clearly what is its function as an instrument of pressure against the eurasian continent that Mackinder was the Heartland, the portion of the world to contain and control for the global domain. Certainly, what we see is that in the specific case, the end of the war represents a defeat for Nato and for all that is in the West collective, as much as was invested in a war that had to lead to a “strategic defeat” for Moscow. Strategic defeat that, instead, on the field, it seems to lie now on Born the same, even if there are other areas “prepared” to re-propose the same confrontation with Moscow, starting from the Baltic to the Caucasus and the Balkans themselves where the clutch interposed State with Moscow are ready to shoot. In short, we do not know how and when to end the war in Ukraine, even if the disparity of forces on the field leaves a few illusions in London, Washington and Brussels; but what is certain is that it will not end with it the battle which we are witnessing.  

Before Donald Trump, no president of the United States had questioned publicly the existence of NATO. There is a connection, in his opinion, among some of the statements made and conflicts of Donald Trump, the deep state, or with a part of the elite financial?  

It is very difficult to interpret the thought of Trump, sfrondandolo of all the contradictions, acceleration and subsequent reverse gear that is showing us. I think basically he perceives the enmity irreducible of the Deep State in the us who resists his every attempt to give a different direction to US policy, especially with reference to the function of the policeman of the world of which he had covered in the past, and that he dislikes it. What transpires is certainly a lack of interest, on the contrary, almost a contempt, for Nato and for the European Union, highlighted, in particular, with its recent apparent change of position on the possibility of the victory of Ukraine. It tends, however, to consider these two realities as “customers” to whom tie his expensive products, starting from the LNG and to get to the weapons, since we keep so much to prolong the life of a war in Ukraine, which is not in his main interests. That does not mean that it is also interested to have a Russia weakened, with which, however, have relations from a position of strength in a world that recognizes is destined to become multi-polar. In this context, it seems worthy of note is the recent post with which he asserted that

after getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia's Military and economic situation.... Ukr with the support of the EU (note: with the support of the EU) is in a position to fight and win......”, concluding with “I wish both countries well. We will continue to supply weapons to Nato for Nato to do what they want with them. Good luck to all!”. 

An affirmation that seems more like a sarcastic taken away from the Alliance (the use of the term “they” is emblematic) and wash your hands for what the European Union wants to do. 
 


Increasingly,
NATO looks at the sales office of the military industry in the United States: in this respect, the European Union had offered their willingness to buy systems for air defense, and the Tomahawk missiles for the benefit of Ukraine. 
But Donald Trump has discarded this hypothesis. Why? 
 

Trump may seem crazy, but it's not and he knows very well that the sale of the Tomahawh Ukraine would involve the US in the conflict in Ukraine much more directly than they are already involved now, with what he calls the “war of Biden”. This involvement would be a consequence of the need on the part of the ukrainians to delegate the use of those missiles to military personnel of the american, as the weapon systems for which the hand and the eye of us are indispensable. And this Putin knows this and has already said for a long time. In addition, the Tomahawk is also suitable to carry nuclear warheads, and each of its launch, it may be interpreted as a strategic threat, triggering a devastating response, even if in reality it with the head of a conventional war. For now, Trump seems reluctant to do this additional step towards a spiralling that it would be difficult to stop, colliding but with the terror of the European Commission and some Eu countries to remain with the world at hand in case of a end of hostilities them relighino to the role of the defeated. For this, it is not the last word and could not exclude another tilting of the front, with a decision of Trump in favor of a sale of such systems, which may open the scene and prospects even more dramatic. In short, we hope that the Titanic hits the iceberg that looks white is always less weakly a few miles to the prow in the night.  

The Defence minister Boris Pistorius has asked the Bundestag measures to reintroduce in Germany, the compulsory military service. As the currency of these statements? What can the consequences be for Europe, a decision of this type?  

The mandatory military service, the so-called lever, had been suspended (not abolished) in Italy at the beginning of the millennium. The measure was inspired by the belief, the wrong that the scientific and technical progress, as well as, the expansion of democracy, relegasse the Armed Forces for Peace Operations and low-intensity. To meet these needs, then, it was believed that an Army of professionals capable of effectively interfacing with current technologies, it was enough, not making it longer need the reference to the classic principles of the Art of War in the past, and thankfully, are still taught in all the Academies. And among these principles, the one of the Mass continues to exist to the full dignity alongside those of Fire, Maneuver, guard and Reserve. In particular, the war in Ukraine has shown, with its virulence and its continued need for the “cannon fodder” to mobilize in order to cover losses ever more important on the liea of the front, the naivety of the progressive ideology according to which, in the words of Francis Fukuyama, the Story is over, along with the ancient festival cruel of the war, thanks to the expanding global western democracies. Of course, individual Countries are dealing with this old-new reality, trying to get back on the steps of a progressive demilitarisation of them would leave you free of the main tools for the assertion of its sovereignty: the Armed Forces of credible, in fact. For this reason, especially from the left side, record a surprising attention to military issues, even at the cost of resulting in a war fever ridiculous and irritating that contradicts decades of rhetoric as a pacifist, in a last-ditch effort to divert to a european level, the strengthening military construction would be in the individual Homelands your reference only. From here, the constant calls for a “common defence”, a “european army” to prevent the strengthening of national sovereignty, as perceived by both the left and the city centre, and also by large sectors of the right, as an evil to be avoided.  

The militarization of the economy seems only possible with substantial cuts in social spending. He believes that the italians are willing to make certain sacrifices to increase military spending and to arm the Ukrainian military?  

I believe that there are events, such as wars, but also the earthquakes and the floods, which have nothing to do with the availability of popular accept them. We have the example of what is happening in Europe despite the fact that the public opinions are almost unanimously opposed to the continuation of the war. And this is also true for cuts in social spending that the business of war, or even just hope its evocation, can impose. Faced with the question “do you want butter or guns?” the choice of the square can be often for the seconds, while in case you opt for the first, especially in the case of wars that are not finalized to the assertion of the vital interests and national direct as in the case in question. Imagine if you were spending in favour of a foreign Army, as in the case of ukraine. But our country, as well as most of the others, is suffering from a deficit of sovereignty truly crippling, which began with the adoption of a currency that we can “manage” according to our needs, which makes it particularly short chain to which we are linked. The strange unanimity with which all of the leadership of the eu are deployed from the outset against a negotiated solution to the war, the continuation impattava visibly against our own interests, is indicative in this regard.  

The administration, Trump had said it is prepared to keep in Budapest will have a summit with the Kremlin, despite the now frequent declarations of Macron, Starmer and Merz on the danger of a Russian invasion. Because, according to her, the United States does not seem to believe this threat?  

That Russia does not have the interest nor the ability to threaten Europe is due to demographic reasons, economic and political. From a demographic point of view, a country of 146 million people and with a huge territory, and that goes from Europe to the Pacific certainly has the ability to look for trouble outside of his area. It can certainly destroy us with its nuclear weapons, but would not have the staff to control our territory, nor to have the best of the populations are much more numerous. In addition, Russia is a european country and would have an effect directly on the territory of the consequences of the destruction of our own, whose wealth is a resource on which to invest. Coming to the economic aspect, this also applies to an ally of Russia, China, that a Europe florida has invested with his Way of the Silk to make a profit. From a Europe in ruins, and destroyed, and could not draw anything. 

Finally, from a political point of view, Russia has need of a relationship with the west european not to be quickly swallowed up by the east tensile chinese schiaccerebbe the european nature of its ruling class.

The Russian Defense Ministry has said that when Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky described the "mopping up" operation in Kupiansk, he either lost touch with reality and failed to grasp the operational situation, or, realizing the hopelessness of the situation, tried to conceal the truth.

Why is Zelensky Refusing to Abandon Pokrovsk?




Volodymyr Zelensky is funneling waves of troops into the meat grinder at Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk) — a city even Western outlets call doomed. What’s really at stake here?

Vital Military Hub

Krasnoarmeysk (Pokrovsk) is a key hub, military analyst Boris Rozhin tells Sputnik.
Liberating it would allow the Russian Army to advance further northwest in the DPR – to Dobropolye, Slavyansk and Kramatorsk – and into the Dnepropetrovsk region.

Zelensky's Buying Time

"[The Kiev regime] is trading time for the remaining forces of the Pokrovsk group, prolonging the battle for the agglomeration to buy time to prepare defensive lines covering Dobropolye and eastern Dnepropetrovsk region," Rozhin says.
However, the “buying time” tactic is doomed:
The main defenses west of Krasnoarmeysk are much weaker than those the Russian Army faced during urban assaults, Rozhin explains.
It would make it harder for the Ukrainians to hold them and give Russia greater tactical advantages.

Zelensky’s Lies Collapse

"Withdrawing [from Krasnoarmeysk] without losses is now impossible," Rozhin notes.
Main supply routes are cut, and the corridor between Rodinskoye and Grishino is under constant drone fire. Abandoned Ukrainian soldiers opt to surrender.
Zelensky "sells the West an image of a stable front," Rozhin says. But Ukraine’s army is losing ground and men — a reality the West sees, which could prompt it to halt the flow of money and weapons to the Kiev regime.

What's Next?

Ahead is the liberation of Dobropolye, Slavyansk, Kramatorsk, Druzhkovka, and Konstantinovka. Konstantinovka is under assault; fighting continues on Seversk and Krasny Liman’s outskirts. It will take months, but the Russian Army will crack it, Rozhin stresses.

Russia - Gorbachev comments on NATO expansion


https://goyimtv.com/v/3324919743/Russia---Gorbachev-comments-on-NATO-expansion

(16 Apr 1997) T/I: 10:09:16

Former Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev on Tuesday (15/4) cautioned the US Congress against the planned expansion of NATO. He claimed that it would be a mistake to expand the alliance without an agreement not to deploy nuclear weapons and combat troops in new member countries.
Gorbachev told Congress that the inclusion in NATO of former
Soviet bloc nations Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic could
strengthen conservative sentiment in Russia.
Without naming China, he said a new power was emerging in the
Pacific that needs to be balanced by the US and by a Europe that
includes Russia.
He said he was not convinced by assurances that Russia had
nothing to fear from NATO expansion. In the post-Cold War era,
he said, NATO should not treat Russia as the victorious allies
severely restrained Germany after World War I.
Gorbachev now heads an environmental protection foundation.
