Virtual coup
Direct Translation via Google Translate
By Boris Rozhin

[ColonelCassad] The coup d'état announced by Zelensky on December 1 did not take place.

Announced by Lyashko on December 1, the introduction of martial law did not take place.

The announced fall offensive of the RF Armed Forces against Ukraine has not yet begun.

It never happened, and now again.

Instead, Zelenskiy said today that in order to achieve peace in Donbas, he needs to negotiate directly with Russia.

As already noted more than once, they will not negotiate with Zelensky - it makes sense to discuss Ukraine only with the United States and its European satellites. Zelensky's level is Pushilin and Pasechnik.
The fact that Zelensky does not want to communicate with them will not change this fact. The Kremlin has made it clear today that the position of the Russian Federation is the same - Russia is not a party to the conflict and in order to achieve peace, it is necessary to negotiate with the DPR and LPR.
Zelenskiy can continue to publicly honor the Nazis; this will not bring him any closer to the desired increase in the status of negotiations.

Along the way, the Russian Foreign Ministry, as expected, gave a shock to "friend Recep", stating that Russia was not interested in Erdogan's mediation in the Ukrainian issue. Instead, Erdogan was offered to influence Kiev to fulfill its obligations under the Minsk agreements.

Turkey today also opposed the introduction of sanctions against Russia. Friend Recep continues to pursue an extremely opportunistic policy, wagging between the two camps.

It is also worth noting another remarkable gem from NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg:

Stoltenberg found the idea that Russia could have a sphere of influence unacceptable

NATO considers the idea that Russia may have its own sphere of influence , since its neighbors are sovereign states, is unacceptable , said the secretary general of the alliance Jens Stoltenberg. He also stated that he did not want to return to the world,where "big countries could impose restrictions on small ones."

"The question itself already reflects the fact that should alert us and which is unacceptable - that Russia has a sphere of influence," Stoltenberg said during a press conference, answering the question about the possible admission of Ukraine to NATO and how this might affect relations with Russia.

According to him, this means that Russia is "trying to restore acceptance that it has the right to control its neighbors."

"And this is a world we don't want to return to, a world in which big countries could impose restrictions on what sovereign independent countries could do," Stoltenberg said.

He recalled that he himself comes from a small "country on the border with Russia (Norway)."

"I am very glad that our NATO allies have never respected Russia's right to establish its sphere of influence in the north and that Norway, as a small independent country, should or should not do," the head of the alliance said.

Stoltenberg added that Russia "does not have the right to veto or vote on this issue," and also "cannot try to establish its own sphere of interest."


Of course, as they think in Washington and Brussels, the US and NATO may have a sphere of influence. Therefore, for example, there are no questions about the French sphere of influence in West Africa. Or the American sphere of influence in Eastern Europe. Or the Monroe Doctrine 2.0 in Latin America. It's different.

Because these are not Russian, but free and democratic spheres of influence, which are approved by "civilized countries." Russia cannot have spheres of influence in principle, because, unlike the unique and exclusive United States, Russia is a unique, but not exclusive country to have such spheres of influence.

He was also touched by the message about unwillingness to return to a world where large countries impose restrictions on small ones.

Of course, while such approaches are pressing in the heads of the Brussels characters, the degree of the Cold War will continue to rise, and the threat of a nuclear conflict will continue to grow along with the unfolding race of nuclear missile and hypersonic weapons.

For it is quite understandable desire of Washington and Brussels to live in the old way, but it will not be so - the world has entered a period of transformation of the previous world order and the issue of redistribution of spheres of influence is one of the most pressing issues of international politics, even if someone continues to pretend that all this is in past. This is the present and future of the modern world order.
