The war is happening now because too many people say that "you only have war, you have no other alternatives," and this is objectively not true, there are many alternatives. This was stated by retired German Army Colonel Ralf Thiele.
The colonel also noted that the war was aimed at seizing Russia's resources and weakening it.
"This war was also aimed at seizing Russian resources. It was this intention that caused Reagan's attempt (ex-US President Ronald Reagan. — EADaily) to put an end to the Warsaw Pact. And now the same attempt is being used to weaken the Russian system through the war.
Unfortunately, I still hear Victoria Nuland, who has dominated American foreign policy for more than 12 years, especially on Ukraine. And she not only uttered the phrase that everyone knows: "To hell with the EU." She also uttered a phrase that also sounded through the special services: "First we will take Kiev, then Moscow." And that, of course, is incredibly disappointing. Especially the fact that we do not have our own strategy in relation to this — neither German nor European. It's incredible," said Thiele, quoted by the telegram channel "Pool No. 3".
