Nato must prepare for Russian Blitzkrieg, warns UK general
« on: 22 February 2015, 16:12:40 »

Worth reading:

Three of Russia's major geopolitical goals at the moment are:

1. Creating divisions between US and EU, which is why sanctions against Russia have been done on an agreed by both parties. US has wanted to go much further than EU who are constrained by their dependency on Russian Gas.

2. Create divisions in EU unity by funding political parties sympathetic to Putin and Russia like Le Pens party in France, and cultivating close ties with the coalition in Greece and other Eastern European countries, especially Hungary, Czech Republic and Serbia.

3. Create political divisions in NATO and ruin it's credibility. Obama is actively helping Putin with this where he has not upheld (along with UK), in spirit, the Budapest Memorandum and Poland already believes that if attacked the US won't come to their or other European country's rescue, especially the Baltics. The rapid reaction force being put together by NATO is all European, Germany is already painting more broomsticks black in readiness!

Putin won't be happy until he has his buffer to the west of Russia.
I've said it before and i'll say it again, the soft pacifist government's of Europe are in for a nasty surprise over the next 10 or 20 years because the "cold war" never finished  :(

More reading!

Now the EU affairs Committee of the House of Lords states that the EU were sleepwalking into the Ukranian crisis and lacking basic analytical skills regarding  Russia. A diplomatic way of saying they ucked up.

Here is the full report, 123 pages but the summary is revealing and is only a page and a bit. starts Page six.
