You always say it’s not our fault. They’re the aggressor. They’re the other side. They’re Hitler. That comes up every two or three years. Whether it’s Saddam Hussein. Whether it’s Assad. Whether it’s Putin. That’s very convenient. That’s the only foreign policy explanation the American people are ever given. Jeffrey Sachs, lecture European Parliament 23rd February 2025
Absolutely another director American unipolar action with Europe as usual playing a useless subsidiary role. ibid.
I now am strictly sworn to be a member of no party. Because both are the same anyway. ibid.
So at the end of 1991 Putin put on the table a last effort in two security agreement drafts. ibid.
In 2019 there’s a paper by Rand – How do we extend Russia? You know they wrote a paper, which Biden followed, How do we annoy Russia? That’s literally the strategy. ibid.
That’s what you call your ally? Are you kidding? ibid.
Are you kidding? Nato reserves the right to go where it wants? ibid.
This is nonsense stuff. This is not even baby-geopolitics. This is just not thinking at all. ibid.
Understand something basic: The idea was to keep Nato – and what is Nato? It’s the United States – off of Russia’s border. No more, no less. ibid.
The US unilaterally walked out of the ABM treaty in 2002. It blew a Russian gasket. ibid.
There is no nuclear arms framework right now. None. ibid.
Ukraine walked away unilaterally from a near agreement. Why? Because the United States told them to. ibid.
And if your security is in the hands of Boris Johnson, God help us all. Keith Starmer turns out to be even worse. ibid.
What is at stake here is Western hegemony. Not Ukraine. Western hegemony. ibid.
About a million Ukrainians have died or been severely wounded. And the American senators – who are as nasty and cynical and corrupt as is imaginable – say this is wonderful expenditure of our money because no Americans are dying. It’s the pure proxy war.
They speak nonsense every day. My country. My government. This is so familiar to me. ibid.
Save your territory. Be neutral. Don’t listen to the Americans. I repeated to them [Ukraine] the famous adage of Henry Kissinger, that to be an enemy of the United States is dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal. ibid.
The Americans thought we have the upper hands. We’re going to win because we’re going to bluff them. ibid.
If Europe does its great warmongering, it doesn’t matter. The war is ending. So get it out of your system. Please. It’s over. It’s over because Trump doesn’t want to carry a loser. ibid.
Are you kidding? You’re Europe. You’re 450 million people. You’re a 20 trillion dollar economy. You should be the main economic trading partner of Russia. It’s natural links. ibid.
And Europe should have a foreign policy. And not just a foreign policy of Russo-phobia. ibid.
And Europe needs a foreign policy. A real one. Not a yes, we’ll bargain with Trump and meet him halfway. ibid.
If you want to have some influence, tell the United States – drop the veto. ibid.
The US in this regard does not have an independent foreign policy. It is run by Israel. ibid.
