“We are on the verge of a war with Russia and China over issues that we partly created”

Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger believes his country is on the brink of war with Moscow and Beijing for reasons co-authored by Washington.

“We are on the brink of a war with Russia and China over issues that we partly created, with no idea how this is going to end or what it’s supposed to lead to,” Kissinger said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal published on Friday. .

“Now it cannot be said that we are going to separate and confront (Russia and China). The only thing that can be done is not to accelerate tensions and create options, and for that you have to have some purpose,” added the former senior official, arguing that the United States should seek a “balance” with the two countries.

Regarding the conflict between Moscow and kyiv, Kissinger, 99, said that the West should have taken the Kremlin’s security concerns seriously, calling it a “mistake” that “the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) indicated to Ukraine that it might eventually join the alliance.

In May, during his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos (Switzerland), Kissinger stressed the importance of Moscow and kyiv returning to the negotiating table in the next two months to prevent the crisis from worsening further. To achieve this, the politician admitted that Ukraine will have to cede part of its territories to Russia.

For his part, the Ukrainian president, Volodímir Zelenski, attacked the American politician, stating that “it seems as if Mr. Kissinger was not in 2022 but in 1938 on his calendar”, referring to the year in which the Munich agreements were signed. , which approved the incorporation into Germany of the Sudetenland, which then belonged to Czechoslovakia.
