If the americans want war? the interesting question, of course. Especially if you speak for the american people. Another thing, individuals such as republican senator John McCain. But it is a subject not political, but psychiatric research.
A completely different picture, when in one form or another in militaristic psychosis fall into the authorities, behind which is one of the most powerful war machine. Once, 30 years sustacal aware, on 8 december 1987 in Washington of soviet leader Mikhail gorbachev and U.S. President ronald reagan to countersign the treaty on the elimination of intermediate-range nuclear forces (inf), according to which the parties committed themselves not to produce, not to test and not to deploy ballistic and cruise missiles, ground-based medium (1000 to 5500 km) and small (from 500 to 1000 km) range. The treaty received the status of a perpetual, almost eternal. But life was good the plot expectations of the changing times, and after 20 years, the foundation under the inf treaty began to sway. On 15 february 2007 the chief of the general staff of the Russian armed forces army general yury baluyevsky said that Russia could revise the entire legal system of nuclear deterrence in response to the deployment of elements of U.S.
Missile defense system in Eastern Europe. In 2000, when the United States announced its withdrawal from the treaty on the limitation of abm systems, a similar statement was made by Russian president Vladimir Putin. "A relic of the cold war" called the inf treaty when he was defense minister Sergei ivanov. According to him, Russia should be armed with missiles, medium-range and shorter-range, if only because they have India, pakistan, Korea, China, Iran and Israel: "These countries are located far from our borders, and does not consider we can't.
Only two countries do not have the right to have these missiles: Russia and the United States. Forever it can not continue". 22 june 2013 another day of memory and grief, Vladimir Putin again announced the possibility of the Russian Federation withdraws from the inf treaty. The reason is the same: the approach of NATO together with the us missile defense to russia's borders, and missiles of a prohibited class at the neighbors. It is clear that between word and deed usually there is some distance.
Particularly in diplomacy, where the word is often used as a tool of psychological influence. But there are times when it is better not to shake the air, and silently doing only what is profitable. For example, the respected Israeli expert on political-military issues and international politics yakov kedmi, the former head of secret services "Nativ", thinks Mikhail gorbachev signed at the time the inf treaty, was very foolish, to say the least. The fact that the intermediate-and shorter-range missiles, the Soviet Union was almost twice that of the United States, so the inf treaty was necessary for us as air. But since that time the Pentagon got the same missiles on offshore platforms, and now the inf treaty in Washington practical value has no. And here is the result.
A few days more odious personality, but a group of congressmen headed by chairman of the committee on nuclear armament mike rogers, sent to the administration of the president of the us proposal of withdrawal from the inf treaty. The authors of the bill argue that "It would be irresponsible to continue to adhere to this agreement if the other party (russia. – "Hbo") it does not comply". In fairness it should be noted that such attempts have been made by the american side before (so the Kremlin is not the original!), but to prove that the Russian military-industrial complex "Made" for "Iskander" long-range rocket, failed. Apparently, there is no evidence now.
And even if there were, they hardly would outweigh the approach of NATO to the east and the deployment of us missile defense near the Russian borders. But on capitol hill did not go into details. It was enough to say that "In comparison with the period of the cold war, which ended in the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Russian ground, air and naval forces are trying to develop rapidly, moving to a higher technological level and combat persistently develop the next-generation platform". The most curious thing of all that is true. But the question is, where is the inf treaty was the "Relic of the cold war", which, as it turns out, america is not cold and not hot?obvious version: the launch of the trial production of the denunciation of the inf treaty in Washington clearly hopes that Moscow will buy this strategic provocation.
And then all of the proven still the Soviet Union pattern: crazy arms race, economic problems, falling living standards, street protests, change objectionable to the West of the regime. However, unconditional support to the initiative of the american legislators have not yet received. The Pentagon and the state department said that compliance with the inf treaty "Remains in the national security interests of the United States. " but it's a half-truth. First, judging by the muted reaction of the Kremlin, the naive idea is to intimidate Russia the arms race and achieve compliancy (e. G. Syria), or to actually involve in destructive military-technical confrontation clearly is not.
Second, even a seemingly harmless, even in words, manipulation with the existing system of collective security can actually lead to unpredictable consequences. This view is held, for example, former U.S. Defense secretary william perry, who stated that withdrawal from the inf treaty would lead only to an increase of danger: "The chances that errors will lead to nuclear conflict will increase. "And if we assume that it is unlikely that the congress had taken the initiative to disavow the inf treaty, has acted solely on his own initiative, the question arises: how is this bill different from, say, the hysteria about the Russian hackers allegedly hacked the servers of the democratic party? the same political provocation, only more dangerous. Game nirvahna i would like to make predictions before the proposed meeting Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin at the site of the g-20 in hamburg. But most likely the current occupant of the white house in the near future, as if he wanted to not be able to get rid of the legacy of barack obama – that's how the american political machine.
Especially in the republican party-minded it is not so much. The vast majority of the american establishment believes that victory over the Soviet Union in the cold war was not complete and not final. In general, overlooked Russia and now need to work on the bugs. As it is implemented, is well known: war in the North caucasus, georgia, Ukraine, sanctions. Direct armed conflict, thank god, has not yet been.
But indirect enough. Today's turkish tomatoes almost ceased to be registered in Russia as a vegetable non grata, the Russian tourists once again fill the beaches of antalya and marmaris, and Vladimir Putin from the ship-stacker pioneering spirit directs the docking of the shallow and deep parts of the "Turkish stream", while friendly chatting with Recep Tayyip Erdogan. But there were other times, when turkish f-16 stealth flunked Russian SU-24. Recall that this happened when Turkey played by the rules of NATO, and presidential candidate hillary clinton demanded to close the sky over Syria, and what was meant to shoot down Russian planes if they are there. No one doubts that Erdogan is even a very independent politician, perhaps with overlap. But if you consider the situation literally, it turns out that the Russian plane was shot down then, almost on the direct orders from overseas, because no one doubted that hillary clinton will host the white house. For brevity, we skip the episodes when the international coalition forces, which is known to keep us on a short leash, several times, accidentally, inflicted a blow to the troops of Bashar al-Assad, that is the ally of russia.
But when Donald Trump playing on the nerves, unfortunately, continued. April 7, 2017 in response to the alleged chemical attack with toxic substances in the syrian city of khan shaykhun the president of the United States Donald Trump gave the order to strike with cruise missiles "Tomahawk" on the syrian airbase al-sirat. What was done: 60 missiles launched from destroyers ross and porter, galereya in the mediterranean sea near the island of crete. They say that the decision Trump was influenced by his daughter ivanka was the assistant of the us president on an unpaid basis, touched the terrible pictures from khan shaykhun. But this, of course, the version for ordinary people, besides the pictures turned out to be fake.
This is actually, first, i had myself to Donald Trump, to dismiss the charges, though he is under the thumb of Moscow. Secondly, those who really pushed Trump to this decision: to put pressure on russia's ambitions, in other words, to intimidate, to put in place. Failed. And then, on 18 june the american fighter f/a-18e, as it turns out, is not the first missile shoots down syrian SU-22 soviet production, which was bombing in the area of raqqa on positions of the banned in Russia grouping "Islamic State". As a result, Russia unilaterally withdrew from the memorandum on the prevention of incidents in the skies of Syria and warned that all aircraft objects an international coalition, flown to the West of the euphrates, will be considered as a potential target.
Their unconditional destruction was not mentioned, but it goes without saying. Like this time the decision was taken not Donald Trump, and the command of the international coalition. It's a trick. But here's the tricky question: have the organizers of such obvious provocation aimed at? if plans was a war between nuclear powers, no. If it is about demonizing russia, the task is completed.
The fact that during the years of unchallenged domination, the americans are accustomed to the fact that nobody can argue with them, superman is still. And even more, to issue an ultimatum. War and mirs american elite is clear – that with the democrats that republicans. Even the Western experts do not hide.
