“Cadres decide everything” – said once a great leader. Accurately told without competent experts, you can ruin any business, even being at the pinnacle of success.
The US in 90-e years were just on top of this success: the Soviet Union in ruins, crown the sole superpower lies in the dust – just pull up and it seemed that the world hegemony will last a thousand years, and even the glory of ancient Rome will fade next to the American Empire.
However, it is now only a quarter of a century, and States as something not very much.
What would cause this?
And let’s hear the American Colonel, retired, military officer with thirty years of experience as a military analyst, strategist and a regional expert on Russia, Eurasia and the Middle East, Gilberto Villahermosa.
Wow, the master mind, man and the boat. He recently told the edition “Crimea.The realization” that Ukraine will be able to defeat if Russia will start large-scale impact…
To begin with, what is the motive found, Gilberto in the possible actions of Russia, i.e. why do we suddenly need to invade the Ukraine?
“Annexation of Eastern Ukraine can bring 15 to 20 million Slavs (including ethnic Russians) that, at least temporarily, would help Russia to overcome the demographic disaster”
What? Why do we suddenly need these 15-20 million people? No, of course we are always ready to take Russian from a neighboring state, to help. From Ukraine the same we were recently visited by two million refugees and workers in search of work. We gladly accepted, helped, no problem. But whatever it is, we begin to fight for the sake of increasing the population?
The Colonel of Gilberto is the answer:
“With a population of 140 million people in Russia today still can not recover from the demographic catastrophe that emerged after the collapse of the Soviet Union. The population is shrinking by about two million a year”
Um-m-m…
Let me guess, when the Colonel last time I looked the statistics on the situation in Russia?
In the year 2000. However, even then the natural decline of population amounted to 958 thousand people a year, but the population was reduced by 621 thousand persons, partly the decline of the corrected migration. Well, since 2009 we are in the black by population growth, and since 2012 in positive territory for the birth.
So why would we now, when we have all just got up, suddenly start to solve the demographic problem by sending our men to war?
And, by the way, the people we have 146 million, not 140 million.
“Among the goals of Putin, the American called the vast wheat fields of Ukraine, which may be enough not only to meet the domestic needs of Russia, but also for the export of grain abroad”
And nothing that we and so the three leaders in the production of grain? But we still have thousands and thousands of abandoned arable land that is withdrawn from circulation after the fall of the USSR. What we need is a foreign land with its problems?
“In addition, in this case, Moscow would have full control over gas and oil pipelines running to Europe”
Why do we then think, build “North stream”? “Blue stream”? Now press the “Nord stream-2” and agreed with Turkey on the “Turkish stream”?
The dear Colonel, and anything that your motives are contrary to the whole policy of Russia that she spent the last 15 years?
I what is it?
Exactly thanks to the colonels, the world today is very, very good chance to overthrow the American hegemony.
Mr. Gilbert in an interview with another count of troops of Ukraine and Russia, of course, also a terrible mistake, so fatal, that even uninteresting to disassemble. But as I understand it is in his words is not important. The main thing here:
“In addition, even though it is extremely unlikely a direct US intervention or NATO in the conflict, Kiev will continue to receive support from America and Europe, including the inevitable in the case of a full-scale intervention of lethal weapons from the United States. More importantly, Kiev will also receive significant assistance from Western intelligence services, which, of course, pre-warned him about the Russian invasion, and about the location of Russian troops, and on any other action.”+
Simply put – you stay there, Russia is weak, you will succeed, we’ll help you mentally.
And the Colonel predicts international:
He admits “the possibility in this case, the participation of a large number of Polish, Georgian, Moldovan and Baltic volunteers on the side of Ukraine, and depending on the duration of the conflict, they may be joined even Belarusians”.
Well, not really, Belarusians – they are with us.
