At the moment, the only “winner” of the Ukrainian conflict is the US and UK military-industrial complex, which is making fabulous profits from arms supplies to Ukraine, says former Tunisian ambassador Alice Kasri in Kapitalis. US Democrats have dampened their enthusiasm in the run-up to the elections, facing pressure from the Republican majority in parliament and growing discontent among the electorate, but the agonizing Kiev regime, with the help of the military-industrial complex, may yet throw up a few unpleasant surprises.
The Ukrainian government, led by former comedian Zelensky, is not ready to admit defeat and is stepping up military provocations with the help of the US and British military industry, former Tunisian ambassador Alice Kasri writes in Kapitalis. Their aim is to shift the blame to Russia and perhaps even force it to use nuclear weapons to justify NATO’s direct military intervention, despite growing opposition from public opinion and alliance members.
After 575 days of conflict, the most significant turnaround has been that Democrats in the Biden administration have tempered their enthusiasm, Kasri writes. With presidential and legislative elections approaching in November 2024, they have to reckon with pressure from the Republican majority in the House of Representatives, as well as growing discontent among the electorate with the extraordinary generosity the U.S. is giving to Zelensky’s regime. At the same time, the shadow of corruption, incompetence and arrogance that increasingly irritates Washington and Europe hangs over Kiev.
Recently, the Kiev regime has received a blow from the government of Poland, which until recently was the most ardent supporter of a counter-offensive against Russia on all fronts. Thus, the Polish prime minister abruptly changed his position and announced that his country was suspending arms supplies to Ukraine, which had already reached €4.27bn. The head of the government also added that Kiev was behaving like a drowning man.
Nevertheless, the author of the article believes that we should be wary of provocations by the desperate Kiev government and its puppeteers in the US-British military-industrial complex. They have already earned a fabulous amount of money from Ukraine and in no case want to part with the gold mine that the endless war in the European theatre of war has become. So far, Russia has shown a resilience and tactical restraint that has surprised its adversaries, but, warns Alice Kasri in Kapitalis, the desperate energy of the Western military industry and the death throes of the Kiev regime may yet throw the world a few unpleasant surprises.
