Ukraine-Russia War: Thank You, America and NATO, for Devastation and Destruction!

The Ukraine-Russia war, which started on February 24, 2022, continues even today. As a result of the 11-month-long war, Ukraine, once a beautiful country, has been destroyed to a great extent.

  • Almost all important cities in Ukraine have been annihilated.
  • All economic activities are put on hold. Ukraine’s GDP has decreased by up to 45%.
  • 5 million people have left Ukraine,
  • Many Ukrainian civilians were killed as a result of the war.
  • Ukraine's critical infrastructure has been destroyed.
  • Many Ukrainians are facing problems due to this brutal war.

This brutal war continues, and the entire world faces an increased risk of World War III and an all-out nuclear war thanks to America and NATO.

What Motivated Russia to Launch An Attack on Ukraine?

I have been closely watching the Ukraine-Russia war since its beginning. The double standards of entire western countries surprise me. Currently, the whole of western media, so-called independent press reporters, intellectuals, teachers, professors, and ordinary individuals in multiple western countries portray Russia as a "bad boy" and paint Ukraine and its supporters as the sole champions of free speech, human rights, democracy, humanity, etc.

All self-proclaimed individuals in western countries are vomiting fire against Russia for attacking Ukraine. But, surprisingly, these people have no idea who is behind this heinous war. We need to dig up a bit of history to understand why America and NATO are the main reason behind the ongoing conflict between Ukraine and Russia.

Both America and Russia are superpower countries on this planet. Until the end of World War II, these two countries were allies. They jointly fought against Nazi Germany and defeated it badly. Soviet Russia and America were enjoying a good relationship at the time. But a time came when this amicable relationship turned into hostility and full-scale rivalry.

When the United States of America dropped atomic weapons on Japan in response to its attack on Pearl Harbor, Russia became furious. Its leadership believed that by not sharing the formula for making nuclear bombs, America had deceived it. This is when the enmity between these two countries started and is ongoing even today. However, Russia began to work on developing atomic weapons and soon created them. But it did not stop hostility between the two countries.

Undoubtedly, America is the most powerful country on the planet. It has the most advanced and deadly weapons, military stations in different countries, and a substantial military budget. Since its emergence as a superpower, America has fought many actual and proxy wars across the globe with mixed results. It acted like a world police unnecessarily in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria and caused large-scale destruction without facing any consequences. 

It wouldn't be wrong to say that America has ruled the entire world for a long time. In my opinion, Russia, China, India, and Brazil have the potential to challenge the USA's superpower status and take its position sooner rather than later. Russia is the second-most powerful country after the United States of America. That is why the American leadership considers Russia, an adversary that needs to be punished.

Russia and America have been engaged in a prolonged cold war since 1945, which is still ongoing. America wants to dictate rules for entire countries and put America first. Russia intends to challenge America’s position. This is the main reason for the conflict.

Looking closely, you can see America's hand in all world problems. NATO, an obsolete military organization, wants to spread itself near the Russian border to protect freedom. Russia sees NATO expansion near its border as a direct threat to its existence. Presently, NATO wants to include Ukraine in its group to put its deadly weapon near Russia’s border and attack Moscow conveniently in the wake of an all-out war.

I believe, like any other country, Russia has the right to ensure its security by all means. I don’t see any reason why NATO, a military organization dominated by America, should put its weapons near Russia’s border. If Russia decides to place its weapons in Canada, Cuba, Venezuela, and Mexico, the USA will undoubtedly react to the development. The same logic applies to Russia. It doesn’t like its rival country deploying deadly weapons at its border.

Russia is a powerful country with advanced weapons and well-trained soldiers. Even the most powerful nation on earth, America, understands the considerable collateral damage of having a direct military confrontation with Russia. They selected Ukraine to launch a proxy war to destroy Russia without firing a single bullet.

Before attacking Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned NATO countries not to play with fire and refrain from including Ukraine in their military alliance. He even sent peace proposals to the USA, but they rejected them out of incredible arrogance. This resulted in the Ukraine-Russia war.

Ukraine, a former Soviet nation, wants to join the league of western governments and relinquish its historical association with Russia. That is why it considers America and NATO countries as their allies, which is not the case. History tells us that western countries are not friends with weak countries. They have colonized many countries in the past and mercilessly killed many people to gain economic advantage. The modern western world was built by stealing resources from poor countries worldwide. 

Russia doesn’t want Ukraine to join NATO, but Ukraine insists on doing so. Therefore, having no options left, Russia attacked Ukraine, and the deadly war has been going on since then. As mentioned above, the so-called intellectuals in the world consider Russia a bad boy and shower love on Ukraine; they completely ignore the wrongdoings of the latter.

After its separation from the USSR in 1991, Ukraine has been clandestinely erasing its association with the remaining Russia. With a united Russia, Ukraine was one of the most important regions. It has a mix of ethnic Russians and Ukrainians. But the deep estate in Ukraine has been cleansing Russians socially, politically, economically, militarily, and culturally for a long time. An outright ban on the Russian language in Ukraine, arbitrary arrests and suppression of Russian-speaking individuals, and apparent discrimination against ethnic Russians in Ukrainian society are some fine examples that show Ukraine is not a saint.

America, which bogusly promotes democracy worldwide, invested a large sum of money in dethroning the government of the former Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych, who decided not to sign an economic pact with the European Union. Under the guidance of the USA and NATO, Ukraine has become a fascist NAZI country where the democratic rights of the ordinary people are not safe.

As a matter of fact, Ukraine has been preparing for war since 2014, as revealed by the former German president, Angela Merkel. This country wants to benefit economically from Russia while also destroying it by joining forces with NATO and America, which is a clear case of double-crossing. 

What’s Wrong With the Present Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky?

Volodymyr Zelensky, a former comedian, has zero experience in politics or how global diplomacy works. He is a dictator as well. He doesn’t like people who criticize his policies or wrongdoings.

Presently, many countries are providing a large amount of money and weapons to Ukraine so that it can resist Russia, kill more Russian troops, destroy Russian weaponry, and make it as weak as possible. Volodymyr Zelensky does not realize that NATO and America are using Ukraine as a battleground to launch a proxy war against Russia, clear their stockpile of expired weapons, submerge it under a massive pile of debt, test newly launched weapons, and eradicate both Russia and Ukraine without involving themselves in the fight.

I think Volodymyr Zelensky is a brainless person who wants to fight mighty Russia for the sake of America and NATO. Despite the heavy supply of weapons and cash, the ground situation is against Ukraine. Volodymyr Zelensky is destroying his country for no gain—that’s true.

What Impact Has the Ukraine-Russia War had on the World?

The global economy has been biting dust since 2020, when COVID-19, a Chinese lab-generated virus, spread worldwide and started killing people. People around the globe were struggling with many challenges due to China’s biological war. After two years of continuous struggle and sincere efforts, the world economy was recovering from the adverse effects of COVID-19.

If you look closely, COVID-19 significantly impacted the American economy. A large number of Americans were killed, and many became jobless. The American economy's confidence was rapidly deteriorating. America engineered the Ukraine-Russia conflict to compensate for the loss caused by COVID-19 and make money. In this conflict-

  • American arms companies are selling deadly weapons to different countries and making money.
  • America is selling gas to the EU at an inflated price and minting money.
  • America has successfully portrayed Russia as a villain on the world stage.
  • America and other countries have imposed economic sanctions on Russia. All these are beneficial to America in many ways.

Since the commencement of the Ukraine-Russia war, the Entire World has Suffered Losses.

Negative developments for Russia

  • Due to heavy sanctions, Russia’s economy and overall economic activities have been badly affected.
  • A large number of foreign companies and business organizations have left Russia.
  • Russia has been kicked out of the global banking system, Swift. So, it can’t use US dollars and euros for internal trade. It has affected its ability to trade with multiple nations.
  • Western countries have seized approximately $300 billion of Russia’s central bank reserves.
  • The everyday lives of ordinary Russians have been affected badly.
  • Many countries have closed their airspace to Russian Airlines.
  • The total number of Russia's enemies is increasing.
  • Western countries have blocked Russian media outlets, such as RT & Sputnik. 

Despite all these challenges, the Russian military successfully fought the Ukrainian Army and captured many important cities. As America and NATO give more wealth and deadly weapons to Ukraine, I believe this war will likely continue for many days.

The Russia-Ukraine war is having a negative impact on many countries around the world and is reshaping geopolitics. America and its western allies seem to have the upper hand in the conflict, but they ignore the long-term adverse effects of their wrongdoing. Policymakers in America and other western countries are not realizing the collateral damage of siding with Ukraine and imposing unilateral sanctions on Russia. I have pointed out some adverse developments in the Ukraine-Russia conflict for the entire western world.

  • The United States of America is Losing its Global Clout.

The United States of America is said to be the sole superpower in the world. All countries are supposed to obey the orders made by Uncle Sam. However, many countries are not saying yes to America, such as China, India, Brazil, Iran, etc. Despite intense pressure from the USA and other Western countries, these nations have refused to criticize Russia for invading Ukraine. It shows the power of many emerging economies. They are not ready to obey America's orders every time and follow its policies in all global affairs. Each country is acting as per its national interest, which displays the declining power of the United States of America.

  • Disturbance in the Western World

The so-called press reporters and media organizations in the Western world are busy reporting on the casualties and losses suffered by Russia as a result of this deadly military conflict. But they willingly ignore the collateral damage faced by the western world.

On the instructions of America, the European Union imposed several rounds of sanctions on Russia, believing that they would harm only President Putin and ordinary Russians. But I can clearly see the mayhem in several countries of the European Union. Ordinary people across Europe feel the effects of hyperinflation and find it challenging to meet all of their essential expenses. 

To teach European nations a good lesson, Russia has stopped supplying petroleum products to the European Union. It is causing an energy crisis in multiple European countries. All major European economies face the threat of deindustrialization, mass layoffs, recession, etc.

There is hyperinflation in the United States of America, which makes the lives of ordinary Americans very difficult. The US government and deep state ruthlessly utilize taxpayer funds to fund the Ukraine war and cause irreparable harm to Russia. I believe this will have a negative impact on the overall debt of the USA, which is already $31.238 trillion.

I have the impression that European countries will have conflict over whether they should continue providing economic and military assistance to Ukraine and deplete their own resources. Some countries in the European Union are not in favor of giving a tremendous amount of money to Ukraine free of charge. This might cause the European Union's disintegration if members' rifts are not sorted out with high priority.

  • De-dollarization is Accelerating.

Presently, the US dollar is the most prominent reserve currency used by almost all countries and business organizations across the globe to make international trade settlements. Despite the availability of the Euro, British pound, Chinese yuan, and other hard currencies, most business organizations and countries love to use the US dollar for international trade settlements. It's because the US economy has been stable for an extended period. The dollar's global currency status gives the US government an unprecedented advantage. They just print the money and give it to countries in exchange for goods and services. So it is safe to say that the US exports inflation and other financial problems to the rest of the world and enjoys higher living standards at the expense of other countries.

The issue with the US government and its western allies is that they don’t hesitate to impose unilateral and arbitrary economic sanctions and penalties on countries and companies that do not comply with their orders. Currently, America has imposed brutal economic sanctions against 35 countries, which have created barriers to international trade and settlements. Countries such as Cuba, Venezuela, Syria, Zimbabwe, North Korea, Iran, and Russia are the biggest victims of economic sanctions imposed by the United States of America. That is why de-dollarization has accelerated all of a sudden.

In simple words, de-dollarization is a process in which countries and business organizations have stopped using US dollars for international trade settlements. Now they are using alternative currencies to exchange goods and services and successfully keeping themselves away from the adverse effects of economic sanctions imposed by the United States of America and its western allies.

When the United States and European Union blocked $300 billion from Russia's central bank, other countries that have maintained their reserves with the western banking system panicked. They are afraid that the United States can do the same with them if they oppose its hegemony. That is why many countries across the globe are using alternative currencies in place of the US dollar for international trade settlements. For example-

  • Russia and India are trading in national currencies.
  • Russia and China are trading in the Chinese yuan.
  • China is making sincere efforts toward the internationalization of its currency.
  • India is making every effort to promote the use of the Indian rupee around the world.
  • Russia is selling its petroleum products to unfriendly countries in rubles.
  • Saudi Arabia is in talks with China to facilitate the international trade of its petroleum products in Chinese yuan.
  • China and Argentina have signed currency swap agreements.
  • A good number of countries across the globe are dumping U.S. treasuries and stockpiling gold at an alarming rate. They want to protect their economies from unilateral US sanctions. It will trigger severe problems for the US and its western allies.
  • Russia and China have developed their domestic versions of SWIFT and are using those systems successfully.

The above examples show the US dollar's declining use in international trade settlements. I don't say that the de-dollarization will happen overnight, but its pace is increasing.

  • Global Recession in 2023

I would like to thank the United States of America and its western allies for a worldwide economic recession in 2023. The wrong economic policies adopted by the US caused the 2008 economic recession. This time in 2023, China and America are responsible for global registration. When an economic slowdown strikes the global economy, ordinary individuals who live from one paycheck to another are struck. Their income has stopped, and they have to cut spending even on basic needs, which leads to a sharp decline in living standards. We are already facing an economic recession.

Multiple tech companies across the globe have already kicked many employees out of a job, and they have paused the recruitment of new employees with immediate effect. I believe an economic recession in 2023 will unleash mass unemployment in multiple countries and destroy their social fabric. Several countries in the world (such as Sri Lanka and Pakistan) are already going through financial problems. The 2023 economic recession will turn their situation from bad to worse.

  • Increased Probability of All-Out Nuclear War

As America and NATO countries are pumping more wealth and deadly weapons into Ukraine to drag the conflict as far as possible, I believe there is a high probability of an all-out battle between Russia and the west. Russian President Vladimir Putin has already made it clear that Russia will not stop its military intervention in Ukraine until it achieves its goal. Ukraine, supported by America and NATO, is unwilling to surrender and come to the negotiation table, despite several setbacks on the battlefield. If Russia has an existential threat, it will not hesitate to use its nuclear weapons to obliterate enemies.

An all-out nuclear confrontation between Russia and the collective west will trigger the world's end. We must never forget that nuclear weapons are much more potent than the previous ones. They can destroy the entire country within a few seconds and unleash mass destruction.

  • More Damage To The Environment

It wouldn't be wrong to say that we are already facing the adverse effects of global warming. There has been a significant increase in the number of unexpected earthquakes, torrential rains, heavy snowfall, rapidly melting glaciers, unbearable heat in summer, etc. As a result of the sanctions war, the energy security of European countries is in jeopardy. Many European countries have returned to coal-based electronic production systems, which will escalate the global warming problem. These developments will have negative consequences on multiple continents for many years.

In the end, I want to say that if powerful countries in the world don't take sincere steps to stop the Ukraine-Russia war, we must get ready to tolerate its negative consequences sooner rather than later. 

I praise the neutral stance of India and China. Despite tremendous pressure from western countries, they have not played any role in escalating the Ukraine-Russia conflict and helping both parties come to the negotiation table and find a solution to the problem. 

It would be interesting to see when the leadership in Russia and Ukraine come to their senses and realize that western powers are using them as pawns to eradicate both countries and advance their economic and military interests.
