« The Art of War »
The « American Party » within the institutions of the European
Union
by Manlio Dinucci
« Russia can no longer be considered as a strategic partner, and
the European Union must be ready to impose further sanctions if it continues to
violate international law » - this is the resolution approved by the
European Parliament on 12 Mars with 402 votes for, 163 against, and 89
abstentions [1]. The resolution,
presented by Latvian parliamentarian Sandra Kalniete, denies above all any
legitimacy for the Presidential elections in Russia, qualifying them as
« non-democratic », and therefore presenting President Putin as a
usurper.
She accuses Russia not only of « violation of the territorial
integrity of Ukraine and Georgia », but also the « intervention in
Syria and interference in countries such as Libya », and, in Europe, of
« interference intended to influence elections and increase
tensions ». She accuses Russia of « violation of the arms control
agreements », and shackles it with the responsibility of having buried the
INF Treaty. Besides this, she accuses Russia of « important violations of
human rights in Russia, including torture and extra-judicial executions »,
and « assassinations perpetrated by Russian Intelligence agents by means
of chemical weapons on European soil ».
After these and other accusations, the European Parliament declared that
Nord Stream 2 – the gas pipeline designed to double the supply of Russian gas
to Germany across the Baltic Sea - « increases European dependence on
Russian gas, threatens the European interior market and its strategic interests
[…] and must therefore be ended ».
The resolution of the European Parliament is a faithful repetition, not
only in its content but even in its wording, of the accusations that the USA
and NATO aim at Russia, and more importantly, it faithfully parrots their
demand to block Nord Stream 2 – the object of Washington's strategy, aimed at
reducing the supply of Russian energy to the European Union, in order to
replace them with supplies coming from the United States, or at least, from US
companies. In the same context, certain communications were addressed by the
European Commission to those of its members, including Italy, who harboured the intention to join
the Chinese initiative of the New Silk Road. The Commission alleges that China
is a partner but also an economic competitor and, what is of capital
importance, « a systemic rival which promotes alternative forms of
governance », in other words alternative models of governance which so far
have been dominated by the Western powers.
The Commission warns that above all, it is necessary to « safeguard
the critical digital infrastructures from the potentially serious threats to
security » posed by the 5G networks furnished by Chinese companies like
Huawei, and banned by the United States. The European Commission faithfully
echoes the US warning to its allies. The Supreme Allied Commander in Europe, US
General Scaparrotti, specified that these fifth generation ultra-rapid mobile
networks will play an increasingly important role in the war-making capacities
of NATO – consequently no « amateurism » by the allies will be
allowed.
All this confirms the influence brought to bear by the « American
Party », a powerful transversal camp which is orienting the policies of
the EU along the strategic lines of the USA and NATO.
By creating the false image of a dangerous Russia and China, the
institutions of the European Union are preparing public opinion to accept what
the United States are now preparing for the « defence » of Europe.
The United States - declared a Pentagon spokesperson on CNN – are getting ready
to test ground-based ballistic missiles (forbidden by the INF Treaty buried by
Washington), that is to say new Euromissiles which will once again make Europe
the base and at the same time, the target of a nuclear war.
