Paul Craig Roberts \u2013 paulcraigroberts.org July 27, 2025<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The unreality that prevails in Russia is puzzling.\u00a0 It is not just Putin\u2019s inability to comprehend that by refusing to win the conflict after 3.5 years, he has allowed the conflict to widen out of control.\u00a0 Now Putin is faced with all of Europe organizing to support the West\u2019s proxy war against Russia by purchasing US weapons and supplying the weapons to Ukraine.\u00a0 Trump and Germany have signaled that the next widening is to attack Moscow with missiles.<\/p>\n

Apparently Russians still haven\u2019t learned anything.\u00a0 Ivan Timofeev, the program director of the Valdai Club, says that \u201cWe\u2019re close to the war nobody wants but everyone\u2019s preparing for.\u201d\u00a0 He is wrong.\u00a0 Israel wants America at war with Iran.\u00a0 Zelensky wants Europe at war with Russia. The Zionist neoconservatives want more \u00a0color revolutions to set at war with Russia.\u00a0 The CIA wants to weaken BRICS by setting India and China against one another.<\/p>\n

Putin himself has done more to guarantee future conflict by refusing to use sufficient force to end the conflict in Ukraine before it widens out of control.<\/p>\n

Timofeev actually believes, God help him, that Trump has pushed for peace in Ukraine.\u00a0 How can Trump push for peace when the military\/security complex needs the Russian enemy, without which its budget and power are reduced?\u00a0 Trump has not repudiated the Wolfowitz Doctrine of US hegemony. Trump has not met with Putin.\u00a0 As the Ukraine conflict is Washington\u2019s proxy war \u00a0with Russia, only Trump and Putin can resolve the conflict.<\/p>\n

Trump has made no attempt to resolve it. He has passed it off to Zelensky, who cannot resolve it, because it is Washington\u2019s war.<\/p>\n

The Western world has not heard a word that Putin has said.\u00a0 Putin said, repeatedly, that the war cannot be resolved unless it deals with the root cause, which is the absence of a mutual security agreement.<\/p>\n

The West has made it perfectly clear that it does not want a mutual security agreement with Russia.\u00a0 What else explains Washington\u2019s use of the conflict to expand NATO into Finland and Sweden, to militarize Moldavia, to stir up trouble in Soviet Central Asia against Russia?<\/p>\n

It is extraordinary that one never sees, with the exception of Sputnik journalist Ekaterina Blinova, any intelligent analysis from a Russian commentator available in English. No doubt there is Russian discussion that is kept from us.<\/p>\n

Another example of \u00a0Kremlin insouciance is the announcement last Friday by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov: \u201cThe only way to resolve the Middle East conflict is through the creation of a Palestinian state alongside Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Here we have again the \u201ctwo-state solution\u201d that has been the cover since 1947 for Israel\u2019s theft of Palestine.\u00a0 Every year Israel steals a little more of Palestine, and the complicit West says \u201cthe two-state solution.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Kremlin is still saying it when there is not a building standing in Gaza and an Israeli government minister has declared the Israeli parliament has in effect annexed the tiny remnants of the West Bank.\u00a0 Trump has already claimed Gaza, so where is Palestine? It is a county that no longer exists. America and Israel have wiped it off the planet.<\/p>\n

The Israeli government declaration reads: \u201cthe creation of a Palestinian state poses a Mortal danger to Israel\u2019s existence. The Knesset declares that the State of Israel has the natural, historical, and legal right to all parts of the Land of Israel.\u201d In other words, Palestine doesn\u2019t exist.<\/p>\n

In the face of this unequivocal statement by the Israeli government the Kremlin says the solution is a two-state solution.<\/p>\n

What more do you need to see that Russia is disconnected from \u00a0reality, has no comprehension of what is happening, and by failing to exercise a leadership role has committed the world to Third War Three.<\/p>\n
