Moscow Calls on Pentagon to Ask NATO to Back Down
Armstrong Economics ^ | 16 July 24 | Martin Armstrong

Posted on 07/16/2024 7:50:16 AM PDT by delta7

Russian Minister of Defense Andrey Belousov has attempted to reach out to US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin once again to remind the Pentagon that NATO is backing Russia into a corner. NATO held a summit that concluded by providing Ukraine with an additional $43 billion in aid. The call between the two leaders of defense “emphasized the importance of maintaining lines of communication amid Russia’s ongoing war against Ukraine.”

The United States, after all, is the primary backer of NATO. Jens Stoltenberg may be the head of NATO, but the United States controls the alliances since it all comes down to finances. Just look at the “gaffe” that Biden was permitted to get away with. This is the live, unedited coverage of what Joe Biden said directly to Stoltenberg in a room full of their peers. The left claims this was doctored, but major news outlets aired the live recording, which does indeed show Biden insulting Stoltenberg and his wife.

Imbedded Video, Biden saying to Stoltenburg:

"I realized I was fvckin’ your wife"?

Belousov is now calling Austin directly instead of going through multiple channels. Not only in the Kremlin concerned with the rapid funding on this ongoing war, but they are aware of the inevitable global conflict that will erupt instantaneously if Ukraine enters the NATO alliance. NATO has pledged an “irreversible path” to membership once Ukraine manages to crack down on corruption. Article V!

“NATO once again very clearly confirmed its essence. It is an alliance founded in an era of confrontation with the aim of continuing confrontation,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov. “We see in fact that the alliance’s military infrastructure is constantly and gradually moving towards our borders. … All of this will require us to take thoughtful, coordinated and effective responses to deter and confront the alliance.”

This would be akin to if America’s enemies COLLECTIVELY began arming Mexico and Canada, supplying both with endless funds, military equipment, and support. Troops are waiting for commands in neighboring countries. NATO chose to enter this war to fight Russia through Ukraine. “Are you sure you want to begin a world war?” Russia is all but politely asking the United States who can control this narrative as they control the resources behind it.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova also commented on the assassination attempt of Donald Trump by saying that the Neocons and liberals are attempting to commit suicide of American democracy. The “dissolution of the United States does not look like such an impossible prophesy any longer,” Zakharova said. Donald Trump’s vow to end the war in Ukraine undoubtedly has put his life in danger. The Neocons simply cannot let one man foil their attempts to conquer Russia.

One heck of a leader the war cheerleaders have. Vlad is obviously the sane adult in the room.

Lost in all of the hoopla about Biden calling Zelensky “Putin,” is that when he “caught” hi error, he referred to a “President Wallensky,” unless I heard him wrong. Who is that? Biden is simply on another level (it’s not a high level).

I wonder who is really leading “ the Pentagon”

Austin always looks like someone clubbed him and Brown is strictly a DEI hire radicalized by critical race theory.

Perhaps Putin should think about backing down and leaving Ukraine. All of NATO’s aid has been reactive.

With the exception of some minor players like Hungary’s Orbán, there are no sane adults in the room. What we have here is much like the run-up to WW1. A bunch of reckless leaders with ego problems.

However, there might be one sane adult in the room after the November election.

NATO backed them into a corner so its harder for them to attack other non threatening countries. give them some cheese to go with that whine. if they put down their weapons they would have peace and if Ukraine puts down its weapons they would be Russian.

1. Its convicted thief Martin Armstrong.

2. Russia started it by launching an unprovoked invasion back in 2014.

The reset is bovine scatology...

LOL And what would the Russians do? They can’t even defeat Ukraine, and any nukes are countered by our own.

Narration and threats, which are neither credible nor convincing, do not make much of an argument in defense of belligerence.

Russia is surrounded by enemies. It has far fewer population centers than the West. It cannot afford or win a nuclear conflict.

Talk about being seduced by an idiotic thought destroying deadly narrative you Zeeper war mongers are delusional dangerous and exactly buyout into the corrupt bribed Biden narrative. It’s long since time you and your socialist friends were told that you’ve had your final hearing and need to just go away.

If a nuclear exchange killed 10s of millions of a nation’s people, wrecked the economy and set it back for years of rebuilding I would think the U.S. lives in a much friendlier neighborhood and could count on a lot of good nations helping it to survive and rebuild.

I would not want to be a broken and defenseless Russia being picked apart by vultures and Asian troops and their deals for survival.

It is not going to happen. The Pentagon is NATO. The fools and idiots are running things now. They are wanting to reduce the World’s population. What a better way than all out nuclear war between the United States of America and the Russian Confederation of States plus whoever wants to join in for the Hell of it. A all out nuclear war between the United States and Russia has long been a Neo Con’s wet dream. And now they have the people in places to make it a reality.

Stop taking counsel in your fears. Stop quaking in your boots worrying about what Vladimir Putin will do. He is not an invincible Superman. And he’s not suicidal.
