Europe Reverses Prior Statement 'We Are At War Against Russia'

Click to see the full-size image

Written by Eric Zuesse.

On January 24 2023, the Foreign Minister of Germany and author of Germany’s forthcoming National Security Strategy, Annalena Baerbock, said at the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, “We are fighting a war against Russia.”

On 5 April 2023, Hervé Blejéan, Director General of the European Union Military Staff, said that henceforth, NATO would fully control the EU’s military decisions.

On 9 May 2023, NATO’s Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said “All NATO members agree that Ukraine will become a NATO member,” which means that the entire Alliance is unanimous that Russia will and must be defeated in Ukraine.

The next day, on 10 May 2023, the EU’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, said essentially the same thing, though in a far less succinct way.

Then, on 14 June 2023, Mr. Blejéan directly reversed what he had said on 5 April 2023, and said instead,

“To send ground troops to Ukraine is to be a party in a war, to be at war with Russia, and nobody wants that, neither the EU, nor NATO. We are not at war with Russia.”

Something extremely important had happened which reversed, cancelled, the EU’s, and also NATO’s, war against Russia. But no one was reporting what had caused the change — nor even that there was a change.

This was the first such statement from the EU that the war against Russia is over — won’t go all the way as a U.S-and-All-European war; but instead had been prematurely committed-to as-if it would be that.

However, Annalena Baerbock and the entire German Government are now even more committed to war against Russia than before, because, on 14 June 2023, Germany’s Government finally came forth with its war-promoting National Security Strategy. Deutsche Welle headlined “German government presents first national security strategy”, and Minister Baerbock said “All of us had to learn with the brutal war of aggression of Russia against Ukraine that freedom and peace do not fall from the sky.” The DW news-report said virtually nothing about what is in the National Security Strategy. Russia’s RT was more informative about that; it headlined the same day, “Germany names biggest threat to ‘peace and security’: Berlin has accused Moscow of jeopardizing strategic stability”, and it opened:

“Russia has been declared the biggest security threat in a top German strategic policy paper. Presented on Wednesday, Germany’s first ever National Security Strategy describes Moscow as a force threatening both regional and global order.”

Germany, which has 231 U.S. military bases on its territory and is being destroyed by the U.S.’s enforced economic sanctions, physical destruction of the Nord Stream gas pipeline from Russia to Germany, and other U.S.-imposed economic burdens, would remain a U.S. slave-state or ‘ally’, regardless of what the rest of the ‘Alliance’ would do.

Going forward now, it is the U.S. regime and countries such as Germany that are still committed to U.S. President Joe Biden’s promise that, “For God’s sake, this man cannot remain in power.” If America’s war against Russia will henceforth NOT be including some other European nations, then perhaps Russia will remove those other nations from being targeted by its thousands of nuclear weapons. The United States, in any event, certainly is providing international leadership of a certain sort: into WW III. But, by doing so, it might lose some of its ‘allies’.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s new book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.

eric, most germans are fully aware that the war against russia is a catastrophy. there is no hope in the political elites; they’re totally corrupt and bought. the world at large loathes the us. at any chance they‘ll shake them off.

‘we are at war with russia’ – oooops, ‘what happened to our tanks and all those weapons we sent ukraine’ ‘we are not at war with russia’ germany fully supports the us, northern europe and uk, who allegedly took out her energy supplies, with full approval of their chancellor. yet, russia is their greatest threat????

scholz ia a midget even more han zelensky, germany, a new third world country.

AM Hants

cannot believe he is still an alleged leader. he fully supports a foreign nation taking out the energy supplies of his own nation. he fully supports a foreign nation, demanding everything and more from germany, with zero complaints. just what have they got on scholz to openly sell out his nation?

PiiPii

as a northern european, finland joining nato and supporting ukraine was a massive mistake in my opinion. trade is the best guarantee against war and now these us-led politicians imagine that they are safe in nato. poof. with the sanctions, we lost billions in trade and the costs have skyrocketed.

AM Hants

good luck. if it is any consolation, not happy what my own government does in support of ukraine and in the name of the people that are able to vote.

the entirety of the threat to germany stems from the incompetence of the occupation forces in that country since 1945, and their reckless and criminal decisions. it is these fools occupying and bullying all of europe and ukraine into disasterous wars that seek to destroy their peoples, and not russia. after all the people of europe are the carbon footprint that the eugenicsists want to reduce.

this third time we will do it. the international western coalition of the willing, our 70 countries inherent resolve freedom will do it, must do it, and can do it. if we all can dream the dream we can do it.

russia cannot forever think they are invincible and contain all these gold mines, gas and oil fields as their own. they belong to the poor and vulnerable people and children of the world, not to a single man who thinks he can ride around bare chested on a bear.

baerbock and borrell don’t have a clue. they are simply wind-up dolls that open their mouths when a string is pulled.

they realized if they admit to being at war with russia, when russia rolls through ukraine they may not make the same mistake they made in ww2 and decide to stop.

freedom and peace most assuredly do not fall from the sky, however, baerbock may well have fallen on her head.
