International Desk: Joe Biden took office as the President of the United States on January 20, 2021. A few months after taking power, Biden withdrew US troops from Afghanistan. After that, many said that the United States would never go to war again. After withdrawing the army from Afghanistan, Biden himself said at that time – ‘This is the end of war forever.’
However, even though the war in Afghanistan has ended forever, Biden has sowed the seeds of a new war in Ukraine. US provoked Russia to attack Ukraine. At the same time, the country is prolonging the war by helping Ukraine in various ways. British international political analyst, writer and journalist Jonathan Quick claims these things. His article was published in the Middle East media.
He thinks that Joe Biden withdrew the army from Afghanistan mainly to focus on Europe. And the United States is indirectly fighting Russia through the Ukraine war.
Since the start of the Ukraine war in February last year, the United States and European countries have been helping Ukraine at a record rate. And this is why this war does not stop. Such is the claim of this expert.
He describes several reasons why the United States is responsible for this war. One of the reasons is NATO’s commitment to make Ukraine a member in June 2021.
Ukraine has wanted to become a member of NATO for many years. NATO also wants to expand its alliance. Meanwhile, Russia wants state security. Basically, this want-or-not-want and get-or-get is the cause of confusion.
On the one hand, Ukraine’s interest in becoming a NATO member, on the other hand, Russia’s efforts to strengthen its security. The two started fighting together.
As the second reason for the Russia-Ukraine conflict, Jonathan Quick points out that, even though it is not a member of NATO, the alliance has been providing all kinds of NATO benefits to Ukraine.
The United States has given $10 billion in aid to Ukraine in less than a year, which is unimaginable. Even this number is more than one and a half times the annual military budget of Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky met with Joe Biden at the White House last month. On the same day, Zelensky gave a message of peace in the guise of a hero to the US Congress. At this time he was honored by standing for three minutes. Which is more than any messenger of peace.
Several Washington officials say the US will not stop until Putin is defeated. Through these words, it can be understood that by ending the eternal war in Afghanistan, the Biden government has started a new permanent or eternal war in Europe.
USA is giving huge amount of money, arms support to Ukraine. At the same time, the US is also providing special training to the Ukrainian army. On the other hand, Washington has conducted military exercises with Ukraine in the Black Sea. Jonathan Quick thinks that the war in Ukraine has not stopped mainly because of these reasons.
