The confrontation between the United States and Russia has once again intensified.
Over the past week, the United States and Russia have engaged in dialogue on strategic security, but the two sides are very divided because the United States has rejected Russia's proposal to ban NATO's eastward expansion and not to arm Ukraine. To this end, Russia has opted for a "tit-for-tat".
Russian experts say Russia will take tough measures in response to the West. Such a gesture is to force the United States and NATO to agree to Russia's proposals, and it also shows Russia's uncompromising political position.
According to the Russian deployment, the Russian Eastern Military District is undergoing strategic inspections, while Moscow is likely to deploy weapons in Cuba and Venezuela to force the West to sit down and negotiate. But it must be noted that Russia will not focus its strategy on Ukraine, which means that it will not launch a military strike against Ukraine.
The Russian side feels that fighting a war cannot change Ukraine's pro-AMERICAN stance, but will intensify the contradictions between Russia and Ukraine and bring more geopolitical risks to Russia.
In other words, Russia is taking military measures to put pressure on the United States and NATO, not to make Ukraine suffer.
Only by making the United States and NATO feel the risk of nuclear war can the United States and Russia sign an agreement.
- Canada has sent special forces to Ukraine.
Given the growing tensions between the United States and Russia, Canada has sent special forces to Ukraine. Western media fanned the flames and said it was part of an effort by NATO members to thwart Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
A spokesman for The Canadian Special Forces Command also confirmed the claim. But Canadian politicians have sidestepped this claim, claiming that special forces came to Ukraine to cover the evacuation of diplomats.
Obviously, Canada's claim is contradictory, so whose claim is reliable? In fact, the Canadian military's claim is a little more reliable.
Since 2015, Canada has been sending troops to Ukraine to help train soldiers. The number of Canadian servicemen on such missions is 200 per person. In March 2019, Canada also announced that it would extend such missions until spring 2022.
On 16 January, the Canadian Foreign Minister reiterated his support for Ukraine. Meanwhile, in December last year, Ukraine's Verkhovna Rada passed a resolution allowing foreign troops to enter Ukraine.
This means that once the war breaks out, these Canadian servicemen in Ukraine will be forced to join the war, whether they like it or not.
2. Britain supplied Ukraine with light anti-tank weapons.
At a time of tension between Russia and Ukraine, Britain said it would not send troops to Ukraine. But this did not prevent Ukraine from supplying weapons to Britain.
On January 18, Britain's defence secretary said it would supply Ukraine with light anti-tank weapons. These weapons will be used to assist Ukraine in self-defence.
All of them have provided Ukraine with anti-tank weapons, which are obviously used against tanks and for land warfare. At present, in addition to Russia, which can threaten Ukraine on land, I am afraid that there will be no second country. Britain's move, obviously aimed at Russia, but it also has to find a fig leaf for itself, how can it be so!
3. NATO signs an agreement with Ukraine.
On January 14, 70 government websites in Ukraine were suddenly hacked, but after a few hours all returned to normal.
Upon receiving the news, NATO immediately announced that it would sign an agreement with Ukraine to strengthen the cyber warfare capabilities of both sides.
It is a coincidence that hackers have just launched cyber warfare against Ukraine, and NATO has signed an agreement with Ukraine. And it's amazing that Ukraine was able to quickly repair a damaged network. Is all this a good drama directed by Ukraine and NATO?
In fact, there is no need for outside speculation, the West has stopped admitting itself. Because the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Borrelli, has made it clear that all means have been mobilized to help Kiev.
Note that all means are mobilized to help Ukraine and obstruct the Russian invasion. This means that the West will not reach any consensus with Russia, but will increase its efforts to confront Russia.
Especially on the Ukraine issue, the two sides will move faster, speed up military deployment, and speed up the struggle in public opinion warfare. Only when one side completely admits it, or shows a weak posture, will this fight produce a winner!
