The last step of the escalation ladder has been reached.
The Pentagon has given Ukraine permission to strike targets deep inside Russia with ATACMS missiles.
They can only be operated with the assistance of US satellite targeting.
“Washington is now a direct party to the war,” says Ria Novosti
Prime Minister of Slovakia Robert Fico:
”Yes, we can say that for several decades after the end of World War II, international relations have developed in a certain space created by very wise and capable world leaders after the end of World War II.
Today, however, I can sadly say that the established rules no longer apply.
And the international order has turned into a brutal duel without rules.
The red lines established during the Cold War have been crossed.
Let’s be honest and say that we Europeans are not perfect either.
It is interesting, but we Europeans have a special quality.
We always have the feeling, and we regularly fall into this trap, that we have the right to decide for others.
And to decide what is right and what is wrong.
That we have the right to tell others: this is how you should conduct your business.
That we have the right to say you cannot write this, you cannot say this.
Or you cannot go to the Olympics.
These are dangerous things, because we live in an illusion.
We think that the world cannot survive without this illusion.
If someone has a sovereign or independent opinion, it is immediately suppressed. We think that with the help of sanctions we will solve the problem of the whole world.”
