NATO Ready For Direct Confrontation With Russia — Official by Nobody: 6:08am On Jan 29, 2023
The military official stressed that NATO should be better prepared because currently Russia has the military initiative

Chair of the NATO Military Committee Rob Bauer said that the US-led bloc is ready for a direct confrontation with Russia in an interview with Portugal’s RTP TV channel.

Replying to a question on the matter, he asserted: "We are ready." That said, he added that NATO is going to respond only if Russia crosses the red line by invading one of NATO member states.

The military official stressed that NATO should be better prepared because currently Russia has the military initiative. "The fact that your enemy has better weapons is not the problem of the enemy. That is your problem," he said.

The interview also raised the issue of introducing "a war-time economy but in peace time," however, Bauer itted that this process would be difficult.

The human resources of the Ukrainian Nazi regime is not infinite.
They suffer massive losses and consistently lose ground.
NATO is ready, they should go and uproot President Putin from the Kremlin like they did to Gaddafi.
Between Zelensky and NATO, it's hard to choose who the biggest loser is.
NATO was directly involved in Afghanistan and they were defeated by rag tag Talibans.
Russia has done more damage to thier reputation and their illusion of invincibility.

Croatia, a member country of NATO has disassociated itself from NATO'S war with Russia.


StephonClarkS2:

NATO bloc member disassociate self from NATO's War Against Russia

The US and might be at war with Russia, but that is news to Croatia, said Zoran Milanovic.

Commenting on the German foreign minister’s declaration that Europe is “fighting a war against Russia,” Croatian President Zoran Milanovic said on Thursday that this was news to him, and wished Berlin better luck than in WWII.

Croatia “should in no way help” Ukraine militarily, Milanovic said while visiting the port city of Split. “Do you want us to enter the war?”

Framing the Ukraine conflict as one between Washington and Moscow, he reminded reporters that he was criticized for merely echoing the words of Kiev’s defense minister, about the current conflict being a “proxy war” between NATO and Russia.

“Now the German foreign minister says we must be united, because I quote, we are at war with Russia. I didn’t know that,” Milanovic said. “Maybe is at war with Russia, but then, good luck, maybe this time it turns out better than 70-odd years ago.”

The Croatian president was baffled to hear such a claim from the leader of the German Greens, which he said used to be a pacifist party equally against the US and the USSR, and not from Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

“If we are at war with Russia, then let’s see what we need to do. But we won’t ask for its opinion,” Milanovic added. “Let them figure out who is the actual chancellor over there. I’ve been in politics for a long time, and our country has been through a lot, but I’ve never seen this kind of madness before.”

When it comes to tanks, “Russian or American, they burn just the same,” Milanovic said, noting that deliveries of armor to Ukraine – announced by the US and this week – will only prolong the fighting.

“Those tanks may burn, or they may reach Crimea, but Croatia will have nothing to do with it,” he insisted. The social-democrat president has frequently clashed with the nationalist parliamentary majority over Croatia’s Ukraine policy. Just last month, Milanovic opposed Zagreb’s participation in the EU program to train Ukrainian troops, saying it clashed with Croatia’s constitution.

Unless the US and Russia are holding some kind of talks, the world is “slowly sliding into World War Three,” Milanovic added. “Some people think it has already begun, but I have my reservations.”

Libya was a very prosperous country before NATO invaded and destabilized the country.
Now the country is left in ruins.
The destruction and destabilization of Libya had a negative impact on countries like Nigeria.

Everywhere NATO goes, they live their regular trade mark of death, destruction, destabilization and neocolonialism.
They've never actually brought peace.
They create imaginary enemies to justify their existence.

The media is mute on the illegal US occupation of Syria.


DebbyParkway:
China Castigates US For Stealing Oil From Syria It is stated that the Syrian people’s right to life is being ruthlessly trampled on by the US US theft of Syrian oil exacerbates the energy and humanitarian crisis in the war-torn Middle Eastern country, Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Wang Wenbin said at a briefing on Tuesday. "According to Syrian government data, in the first half of 2022, over 80% of Syria’s daily oil output was smuggled out of the country by US occupation troops <…> Such banditry is aggravating the energy crisis and humanitarian disaster in Syria. The Syrian people’s right to life is being ruthlessly trampled on by the US," the diplomat said. "The US must answer for its oil theft. The Syrian people and the international community deserve an answer. We urge the US to stop trampling on international rule of law and breaking international rules," Wang Wenbin emphasized. Most parts of the Syrian provinces of Deir Ez-Zor, Raqqa and Hasakah in the country’s east and northeast are under the control of the Kurdish Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) backed by the US. According to Lebanon’s Al Mayadeen TV channel, the US-led Western coalition assists the Kurdish autonomous istration in setting up production at mothballed wells. According to the news outlet, this is done in order to create an economic base with subsequent oil sales. Damascus views America’s military presence on Syrian soil as an illegal occupation of the country.

According to Estonian intelligence, missile attacks on Ukraine could continue for another six to nine months.

According to the head of Estonian intelligence Margo Grosberg, at best, Ukraine can be bombed for up to three months. At worst, up to nine. It all depends on the amount of ammunition that remained in Russia.

And how many of them are obviously not known in Tallinn
