Putin approves changes to Russia's nuclear doctrine, which legally lowers the threshold for the use of its nuclear weapons
- There are many more steps on the escalation ladder before the nuclear option. Russia will likely prioritise indirect attacks on NATO military assets around the world in retaliation for the US missile attacks. However, the conflict can quickly spiral out of control
The US/Ukrainian attack on Russia's Bryansk region has set the world on a possible path to nuclear war
- The US has now entered the war as a direct participant. What would the US do if the situation was reversed?

The US has made the decision to attack
Russia! After losing the election, Biden risks nuclear war to sabotage Trump's mandate to end the war. I wrote back in September why such an American attack on Russia is extremely dangerous:

NATO goes to war against Russia?
- Putin warned: “If this decision is adopted, it will mean nothing less that direct participation of NATO countries, the US, European countries in the war in Ukraine. This direct participation will of course significantly alter the very nature of this conflict”.

China has not abandoned its “peaceful rise” but reformulated it. Peaceful rise no longer entails building its strength within the US-led system while avoiding unwanted attention ("hide and bide"). Peaceful rise is defined as developing a multipolar economic system capable of managing changes and harmonising interests

These are American long-range missiles, their use is entirely dependent on US intelligence and targeting, American soldiers will operate the missiles, and they will be guided by American satellites. This is an American attack on Russia.

The US did not strike Russia with long-range missiles for almost 3 years because this would cross the line between proxy war and direct war
- Now that the US has made the decision to attack Russia, the media will do their job of selling the narrative that this is unproblematic and not an insane escalation - merely enabling Ukraine to defend itself

Marco Rubio, Trump's Secretary of State, believed it was "common sense" that Russia blew up its own gas pipelines
- These people are never held accountable for their ignorance and/or lies, but rewarded for being "tough" on their adversaries. Poor governance becomes unavoidable
- Never forget that for almost three years, our politicians did not engage in diplomacy even as hundreds of thousands died, while "journalists" demonised anyone calling for negotiations. They framed it as a moral position
- Never forget that there were no territorial concessions in the Istanbul agreement, only the demand for ending NATO expansionism. It was nonetheless sabotaged by the US/UK as they could weaken Russia in a long war - as confirmed by Zelensky
- Yet, these people nonetheless still speak as if they hold the moral high ground
The EU used to brand itself as a peace project. What happened?
- What is the plan? To threaten China into obedience? This will have huge costs and zero chance of success, only make Europe less relevant
- The EU is prepared to do anything besides diplomacy
