Original title: The United States continues to fan the flames of the Russian president: If a war breaks out in Europe, no one will be the winner
In the past few days, the U.S. military has used the so-called “Russian invasion of Ukraine” as an excuse to increase its troops in Poland many times, and at the same time intensified its information warfare offensive, threatening the “Nord Stream-2” pipeline, which is crucial to Russia-Europe relations, and constantly serving the so-called Russia. The “Invasion” plot fanned the flames.

U.S. President Biden said during a meeting with German Chancellor Scholz on the 7th. If Russia “invades” Ukraine, the Nord Stream-2 project will cease to exist. But he did not answer reporters’ questions about how the United States would terminate the Nord Stream 2 project.
Scholz said that all parties should use all possible diplomatic means to resolve the Ukraine issue. However, when the reporter asked “whether Germany will terminate the ‘North Stream-2’ project”, Scholz did not make a clear statement.

In order to prevent the situation from escalating further, German Chancellor Scholz invited French President Emmanuel Macron and Polish President Duda to meet in Berlin on the 8th to discuss the security situation in Ukraine. Scholz said that maintaining regional and international security is the common responsibility of the three countries.

On the 7th, Macron also held a five-hour meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Putin said the talks were “useful, substantive and pragmatic”. Russia will try its best to reach an agreement with Western countries on the Ukraine crisis. Putin said that if war broke out on the European continent, no one would be the winner. Macron revealed that he had proposed “specific security guarantees” to Putin. In this regard, Putin said that some of Macron’s ideas are realistic, and he is “very likely” to move forward with some of them.
Putin counts NATO’s “dark history” of challenging wars
Putin also reminded that the West has always claimed that “NATO is a defensive organization”, but such words cannot deceive the world – just look at what the people of Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan and other countries have experienced in the past few decades.
Russian President Vladimir Putin:What I want to say is that Western countries have been placating Russia on the grounds that “NATO is a peaceful and defensive organization”. (NATO’s) large-scale military operations in Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan and Belgrade have not been approved by the UN Security Council, and they are clearly far from “peace organizations”.
