The Ukraine War and the Zelensky-Putin Conflict

It’s still there Europaand especially in Italy, those who believe that in the terrible war between Russia and Ukraine, victory for Putin does not compromise Europe and does not represent a threat to world peace. And there are those who consider last week’s threats from the Russian leader on the use of atomic bombs to be empty words if the West allows Ukraine to use long-range missiles on Russian territory: “This will mean – this in warning Of Putin – that the country of Nato, The United States, European countries, are at war with Russia. If this happens, all appropriate decisions will be made. “Threatened again the day before yesterday by the head of the Duma Viaceslav Volodin after the decision (by the majority) of the EU to allow Zelensky to use long-range weapons and strike deep into Russia: “What the European Parliament asks for directions to a world . war with nuclear weapons.”

Are those of Putin and Volodin words in the air, only hot air, a bluff to scare the West and leave Ukraine to its fate in the jaws of the Russian government? One truth is certain. Almost three years after the beginning of the conflict, near the new winter, what happened the other day in Russia 600 km from the Ukrainian border and 160 km away. northwest of Moscow cThe bombing of Ukraine’s drones and missiles that blew up one of Russia’s main weapons depots shows that the war has entered a new stage of progress. According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), an American tank, 250 bases and military installations in Russia could be attacked by long-range western weapons supplied to Zelensky: governments, warehouse, communication centers, maintenance hangars and sixteen. air bases. What would happen if a missile (made in the USA) managed to hit Moscow? Is this the way to end weapons and open peace negotiations?

This is why some Western countries and even the limits of the Italian government are against the new demands of Zelensky, which asks the West for new missiles, above all to affect NATO and the US even more heavily and directly involved in the ongoing war. This will lead to an escalation of the conflict with unforeseen consequences. A conflict that has caused more than a million deaths and injuries, that has partially destroyed a country, that has affected financial systems abroad of the economy of all Western countries, especially the European ones. It must also be advertised nauseam that this war exists an aggressor country, Russia and there is an attacked country, Ukraine. It was Putin’s first step, a demonstration of his ability to bring Europe back to its post-World War II borders.

Not only Zelensky, but all Europe and the whole West, who could not raise their hands for Putin. However, it is time to ask ourselves the question of when, how and where to hide. Even to drop the masks behind which Putin still tries to hide. The West has no possible agreement with Russia on its plan. But the war could not continue for a long time as it has done so far, relying only and exclusively on weapons. At stake here is not the future of Putin or Zelensky. In the absence of a plan, in the short term, for a real political negotiation, there is only one outcome, with the real risk of a Third World War. It’s time for a turning point. Also return to the past, with people as protagonists, even in the square. Everywhere. Hurry, before it’s too late.
