Paul Craig Roberts – paulcraigroberts.org Jan 10, 2022
The Americans, wallowing in hubris and delusions of omnipotence, have blown the meeting with the Russians, as I expected them to do.
Russia’s deputy foreign minister Sergey Ryabkov expressed the Kremlin’s loss of patience:
“We do not trust the other side. It’s over, enough is enough.” The Americans “underestimate the gravity of the situation,” and failed to show an understanding of how key issues need to be resolved. “We are fed up with loose talk, half-promises, misrepresentations. It is absolutely mandatory to make sure that Ukraine never ever becomes a member of NATO.”
Ryabkov said he will make a decision on January 13 whether to continue the meeting.

Ryabkov said if the militarization of Russia’s border by Washington did not cease, the Russian military will respond in a way that “will inevitably and unavoidably damage the security of the US and its European allies.” “We are calling on the US to demonstrate a maximum of responsibility at this moment. Risks related to a possible increase of confrontation should not be underestimated,” Ryabkov said, adding that “significant” effort has been made to persuade the Americans that “playing with fire” is not in their interests.

The insouciant State Department replied that NATO won’t stop expanding.

PCR fails to set this perceived US diplomatic failure into context.
The US and UK don’t give a crap what happens on the European mainland. Most EU leaders are CIA/MI6 assets, a legacy from WW2, and if they don’t actually control a leader, they are surrounded by CIA swamp rats.
Why would Finland and Sweden be queuing up right now to join NATO? Just one nuke on Helsinki and most of the Fins are gone. It might be an extreme way to look at things, but that is the reality. I doubt the Fins have a political choice, just as all the other so called democracies offer no realistic choices.
Why are so many countries lining up to to business with China, because the City & Wall Street controlled institutions have failed… by design. There’s even talk that China could gain a foothold in the West Indies.
This gives context, because the US and UK gave very few options where they can xxxx over some country and not get caught. In my mind, only the EU is left, and this is why they don’t care.
The US is trashing the Turkish economy, they are fermenting war in the Balkans, they have extra heat on the Russian and Belarus front, and they have a powder keg ready in Ukraine.
And the real shocker, these issues aren’t even on the sheeple radar. Ukraine is a given, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Russia invaded Finland due to its proximity to Moscow.
I can also see Russia putting a lot of military hardware and men in Belarus & right on the Belarussian Western border.
Let the loud-mouth idiot American hypocrites get hurt. They have been too noisy for too long. No bell tolls, just coins jangling into the grave.
A king who learns the lessons of generals who have won in battle can become a great soldier, but if he learns the lessons of those who have lost he can become invincible.
America has lost a lot of battles but has learned nothing. Killing more civilians than the enemy kills your soldiers is not winning a war, it’s committing atrocities. America is a rogue state, a terrorist nation, which may soon learn its hardest and last lesson, one it probably will not recover from. It will likely break up.
@ LEWIS JONES
loud + clear since 1915. they should have
stook to their Monroe doctrin and look
only after their own hemisphere .
What the Amerikan Jews want is Russia bogged down in a quagmire, away from the middle east where the Israeli superstate project has stalled. That way Israel can go play in Iran without Russia interference.
‘Oh Vey our Greater Israel Plan is not werking’ cries Rabbi Muzziehammerstein.
Biden and Blinken don’t give a damn if there’s chaos in eastern Europe, they will laugh their asses off as American defense contractors shovel weapons into some new conflict.
Amerikans are not running the show in Washington D.C. , Jews are.
That is so obvious how does PCR fail to see it?
Paul Craig Roberts once again fails to connect the dots. He constructs his essays based on the Jewish narrative in the press. He doesn’t understand that NYTimes logic is Jewish subversive logic tempured for Goy consumption. PCR is like an idiot Goy reporter who doesn’t understand that everything Amerika does is a Jew con job.
Amerikan foreign policy is 100% Jewish interest, so if Amerika is anally probing Russia in the Ukraine it is because Jews are pissed at Russia for foiling their plans elsewhere. Biden just gave the Ukraine 200 million USD. Where the hell do they get this kind of discretionary spending? That’s chump change to them. They laugh their asses off when the piss off Russia.
The twin hyenas Kumaloho and Victoria Nuland (wife of Robert Kagan arch Zionist) squeals like a pack over a fresh kill.
Putin and Lavrov are dead serious, Biden and Blinken are toying with them. If Russia rolled the tanks into the Ukraine then Israel could launch a nuclear strike against Iran. That is how the Jew infested District of Criminals and the Jew run CIA think.
Kazakhstan color revolution is just another bait ball to keep Russia occupied. But Putin is a master chess player, and once again all is calm on the Russia front.
Putin wins again and again and again.
Jews everywhere cry out in pain.
@ Carl Jones. It’s not so much that Finland and Sweden are queueing up to join NATO, but rather that their CIA and MI6 bribed and blackmailed politicians are.
People don’t read history and are now scared of russia puttin down its foot.
Well then, read about Patton who was killed because he wasnt invited to the Grand plan.
History and revisionisthistory, ok?
At the end of the day this is all posturing and a distraction.
The fact they let it happen under Obongo’s gaggle of jews proved that Putin, and his chabad friends like the beatles, is “only in it for the money” (good zappa album).
Perhaps putin will pull a stalin – this time starving his own people instead of the Ukrainians – since all Russia’s Agriculture comes from the Ukraine.
If you haven’t noticed – we’re in WW3 and for the same reasons/goals of the elite. It’s called the plandemic and the branch covidians will die from autoimmunity if that RNA ever gets expressed…which is actually quite difficult and impossible without some nasty adjuncts that are quite toxic on their own.
