Ko gospodar reče drugače, njegovi lažnivi podrepniki spremenijo izjave za 180 stopinj in pri tem niti ne zardijo:

• Oct 24, Mark Rutte: “Ukraine’s path to membership is irreversible […] The day will come that Ukraine is a full member of NATO” (https://nato.int/cps/en/natohq/opinions_229230.htm )
• 13th February 25, Trump: “I don’t think it’s practical” to have Ukraine join NATO
• 13th February 25 (same day), Mark Rutte: “Ukraine was never promised NATO membership”

Morda. Vendar je tudi to praktično nemogoče. Tako poceni pa pogajalci že niso.

„The Italian Foreign Minister, reacting to the phone call between Russian President Vladimir Putin and U.S. President Donald Trump, expressed the opinion that Europe should not play a “secondary role” in negotiations on Ukraine.

There is no emoji to convey the full range of emotions, so I’ll have to use words. 👇

Let me remind you that it was precisely the leaders of EU countries—German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President François Hollande—who not long ago openly admitted that they never actually intended to implement the Minsk agreements, despite previously assuring the world otherwise. Their official position now is that the Minsk agreements were merely an attempt to rearm Kyiv and “buy it time.”

In other words, they pretended to be working in good faith on the Ukrainian issue while actually engaging in a harmful charade.

The problem is not just that they lied—everyone is used to that by now. The real issue is that they betrayed Europe’s interests, and this betrayal is one of the causes of the current tragedy.

(Kvazi) Zelena agenda, sankcije na uvoz energentov iz Rusije in fokus na vojno namesto na razvoj (na Made in Europe) so uničile evropsko gospodarstvo. Za vse troje je odgovorna ena ženska (ob veliko statistih).

Gre za zgolj navidezno dilemo razvoj ali vojska. Odločitev je “no brainer”. Kdor želi (ki goji ruske fobije), naj vlaga v ameriško orožje, tudi če za ta namen nameni 10 % BDP letno, njihova stvar, toda Slovenija mora povečati vlaganja izključno v razvojne namene. Po vzoru Avstrije in Švice (manj kot 1 % BDP za obrambo) bi morala razglasiti nevtralnost in se posvetiti novi razvojni strategiji in v namen spodbujanja razvoja na letni ravni vlagati najmanj 5 % BDP.

V Bloombergu imajo dobro špekulacijo o možnosti, da se 9. maja letos v Moskvi, ob 80. letnici dogovora o postvojni ureditvi v Jalti, srečajo predsedniki Rusije, Kitajske in ZDA in se dogovorijo o novi mednarodni ureditvi za 21. stoletje. Evrope na tem sestanku ne bo. No, če smo pošteni, je tudi v Jalti leta 1945 ni bilo. Evropa je bila tedaj porušen subjekt, o katerem so namesto nje odločali predsedniki Sovjetske zzveze, ZDA in V. Britanije. Tudi na Jalti 2.0, če se bo res zgodila 9. maja letos, bo Evropa samo – gospodarsko uničen in politično irelevanten – subjekt, o katerem se bodo dogovarjali in dogovorili voditelji treh velesil.

Evropi v 80 letih ni uspelo postati politična velesila. Gospodarsko moč, ki jo je izgradila po drugi svetovni vojni prek projekta carinske unije, je uničila z zgrešenim in ponesrečenim projektom evra, z napačnim fiskalnim okvirjem od leta 2010 naprej, z zgrešeno energetsko politiko in s stavo na ameriške halucinacije, da lahko prek Ukrajine oslabijo in uničijo Rusijo.

It’s hard to believe now, but US, British, French, Polish and Ukrainian troops all marched in Moscow alongside their Russian counterparts on Red Square in 2010 to mark the 65th anniversary of the end of World War II.

Vladimir Putin watched NATO troops join that May 9 military parade alongside the German and Chinese leaders. Dmitry Medvedev, then Russia’s president, spoke of a common desire to defend peace.

Fast forward to 2025, almost three years into Russia’s war on Ukraine, and Putin’s preparing to host the 80th anniversary parade. He has invited Chinese President Xi Jinping to join him on Red Square — and Xi agreed.

Will Putin also invite US President Donald Trump? And would Trump go?

The temptation would be strong.

Trump’s gearing up to push Russia and Ukraine into a quick deal to end the war, and yesterday hailed Putin’s release of an American from prison as evidence of Russian “goodwill.” Success before May 9 would let him travel to Moscow as the president who restored peace in Europe.

Putin may have bigger plans in mind. He has long sought a modern version of the 1945 Yalta agreement, when the Big Three of Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin and Franklin D. Roosevelt met in Crimea and carved out postwar spheres of influence in Europe.

Putin argued last year for a new “Eurasian security system” stretching from Europe to China. With Xi and Trump in Moscow, he’d have a chance to form a new Big Three of strongmen rulers.

Trump covets Greenland, Canada and the Panama Canal in the western hemisphere. Xi wants to control Taiwan and the South China Sea. Putin aims to restore Russia’s dominance of Europe and a superpower status that was lost with the Soviet Union’s collapse.

Trump says he gets on well with Xi and Putin, and a pact to reshape global security might appeal to all of them.

It would also strike fear into many of the US’s democratic allies in Europe and Asia.

Spodaj je celoten govor ameriškega obrambnega minsitra Peta Hegsetha. Po že znanih Trumpovih robnih pogojih po pogovoru s Putinom, jih je Hegseth še dodatno pojasnil. Ključna so tri dodatna pojasnila. Prvič, ZDA ne bodo dale nobenih varnostnih zagotovil Ukrajini. Drugič, Nato sile ne bodo napotene kot morebitne mirovne sile v Ukrajino in tudi če bo kakšna članica Nata poslala svoje enote v Ukrajino, to ne bodo ameriške enote in ne bo jih varoval člen 5 Sporazuma Nato. In tretjič, če želi, mora Evropa zagotavljati vojaško pomoč Ukrajini in evropske države morajo dvigniti izdatke za obrambo na 5 % BDP.

In, kot je povedal Putin in kasneje revtvital Trump, Evropa bo kot cucek ponižno mahala z repom ob ameriških nogah.

• The Bloodbath Must End
• Returning to Ukraine’s pre-2014 borders is an unrealistic goal and pursuing this false goal will only increase suffering
• The US does not believe that Ukraine’s membership in NATO is a realistic outcome of the upcoming negotiations
• If there are any peacekeepers in Ukraine, it will not be under the auspices of NATO and not in accordance with Article 5 of the Charter
• US troops will not go to Ukraine, US military presence cannot be part of security guarantees
• It is Europe that should provide Ukraine with more military aid
• 2% is not enough, Trump calls on Europe to increase military spending to 5% of GDP
• The US is facing threats to its own borders and will focus on protecting them
• Communist China is a threat to US borders and US prioritizes such threats
• The US will no longer tolerate NATO’s unequal defense policies that create dependency

Natanko to smo tri leta govorili, da se bo zgodilo. Kje so zdaj ti pametnjakoviči med politiki/političarkami in medijski pisuni, ki so navijali proti mirovnemu sporazumu iz marca 2022, ki bi ohranil celovito Ukrajino v zameno za nevtralnost in ji prihranil uničenje, in ki so tako goreče navijali za nadaljevanje vojne, ki je v nobeni znanstveno fantastični knjigi ni bilo mogoče zmagati?! 

Aja, ti isti politiki in medijski pisuni navijajo za nevzdržni “zeleni” prehod prek energetsko revnih virov sonca in vetra, ki v nobeni znanstveno fantastični knjigi ne moreta zagotoviti zanesljive oskrbe z električno energijo po konkurenčnih cenah, vodijo pa v deindustrializacijo Evrope in onemogočajo tehnološki razvoj Evrope.

US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth says Ukraine will not be part of NATO and will not get its pre-2014 territories back

• This was obvious three years ago, yet hundreds of thousands of men were sent to their deaths. Our governments, media and “NGOs” pushed ridiculous narratives of “Ukraine is winning”, “Ukraine is losing fewer troops than Russia” and other obvious lies to sell a long war to the public and maintain the war enthusiasm, while shutting down free speech by smearing, censoring and cancelling anyone who challenged their war narratives with facts.

• Ukraine could have had its pre-Feb 2022 territory back in return for neutrality, yet the US/UK sabotaged the Istanbul agreement for a long war to use Ukrainians to bleed Russia -and the media refused to report on it. Our governments then refused any diplomacy for three years as they watched all these young men die. The warmongers sold it as moral, principled, and “supporting” Ukraine.

• Ukraine is now destroyed, Russia is organising its economy toward China and the east, Europe is destined for economic decline, political instability and growing irrelevance in the world. Nobody will be held accountable and their absurd narratives will contine to be immune to facts
