War Over Peace

Guy de Lusignan: Give me a war.

Evidence continues to suggest that the West condones war in Ukraine. This weekend an EU diplomat stated that, "This war will be one on the battlefield."

To which Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov responded that this hardly sounded like a diplomatic position.

He's right.

Add to that further news about NATO beefing arms up and down its eastern front and continued efforts to ship military resources to Ukraine--along with no leadership (especially US) to convene diplomatic talks and it is difficult not to conclude that the West supports war over peace in Ukraine.
