Jeffrey Sachs pointed to the liberal victim narrative — Civils Info

Vaseline

The world-famous American professor described in detail in his program Tucker Carlson how the United States provoked Russia to attack Ukraine.

“It is not true that Vladimir Putin attacked Ukraine in 2022 without anyone provoking it,” Jeffrey Sachs, a world-renowned professor of economics and foreign policy expert at Columbia University, said on Tucker Carlson’s program. He emphasized:

For decades, the United States and NATO have provoked Russia by continually expanding the military alliance eastward, despite the 1990 promise. Putin’s response has been to cross the red line that would mean Ukraine’s accession to NATO.

Jeffrey Sachs described in detail how US foreign policy led to Putin’s eventual attack on Ukraine. He recalled that NATO had promised in 1990 not to expand further. Nevertheless, detailed plans emerged as early as 1997, the essence of which was that the military alliance – and with it Washington – would expand its influence in Europe and Eurasia. For this purpose, the accession of Ukraine and Georgia to the Western federal system was considered essential.

An important milestone in this plan was the accession of Eastern European countries – including Hungary – to NATO in 1998, and the Baltic countries to the military alliance in 2000. According to the professor, these were all provocative steps, as the North Atlantic Treaty Organization was moving ever closer to Russia’s borders. Even after that, the US continued to expand its influence, unilaterally withdrawing from the Ballistic Missile Treaty in 2002, which was considered one of the guarantees of Russian-American peace. After that, it first placed missiles in Poland and Romania, and later NATO bases were built in most Eastern European countries. The bombing of Belgrade in 1998 also fit into this line, the real purpose of which was for the United States to gain a foothold in Southeastern Europe.

Putin has long said that Ukraine is a red line

As early as 2007, at the Munich Security Conference, the Russian president called on the leaders of the United States and Europe to promise that NATO would not expand eastward in 1990. This is a guarantee of Russia’s security. In the meantime, Europe was cooperating with Moscow more and more closely and in more and more areas, which was clearly not in the interests of Washington, where the conviction still exists that

the united states is the only superpower in the world so they can do whatever they want

Jeffrey Sachs pointed out that in 2008, at the Bucharest summit, European leaders convinced the Americans that NATO expansion to the Russian border was unnecessary and dangerous.

The war didn’t start in 2022

Ukraine initially did not want to be part of the Western federal system either, the Ukrainians supported the neutrality of the country. It is no coincidence that Viktor Yanukovych, who declared the country’s neutrality in 2013, was elected president. This was of course unacceptable to Washington, so the CIA provoked an uprising in Kiev with its action, after which the Yanukovych government was overthrown in early 2014.

According to the world-famous professor, the Russian-Ukrainian war began then, as an armed conflict has been going on in the eastern parts of the country since 2014. And Russia annexed Crimea because it could not afford to build American military bases on the peninsula, thus endangering hundreds of years of Russian presence in the region.

Sachs recalled that Joe Biden and Vladimir Putin last met in 2021. Russia proposed a security agreement at that time, but negotiations did not take place. Shortly before the Russian invasion, Vice President Kamala Harris and other US leaders had already openly discussed Ukraine’s membership in NATO.

Considering all this, it is unlikely that Russia attacked Ukraine without provocation.

– concluded Jeffrey Sachs, who also gave his opinion in the conversation about

why it’s clear the Covid-19 epidemic is the result of an American coronavirus experiment.

The conversation was also recommended by Oscar-winning film director, producer and actor Oliver Stone from his channel X.
