DESPITE WHAT ZELENSKY RANTS ABOUT...
By Mauro Marturano
...and despite what many of you may think, the war can end in only 2 ways:
Zelensky successfully attacks the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, making it appear that Putin is responsible. The war ends. The EU permanently confiscates Russian assets. The euro collapses because confidence in the euro and in European institutions collapses definitively.
Zelensky successfully attacks a Russian nuclear power plant. Russia responds with a nuclear missile. Between the first and the second event, we in Europe live through days of anxiety, because we know how it will end. After Putin’s response, the war ends. The EU permanently confiscates Russian assets. The euro collapses because confidence in the euro and in European institutions collapses definitively.
Of the only 2 possible scenarios, the first one is, in my opinion, more likely. But these are certainly the only 2 possible scenarios.
If they had wanted peace, they would have made it happen. If they had been able to drag us into war, they would have done so.
Whichever of the 2 scenarios brings the war to an end, we will face the consequences of a war in Europe without even having actually experienced it ourselves.
And the first intended consequence... is that European citizens must lose everything, or almost everything.
This is the first reason why the war against Russia was waged.
This is the first reason why Russian assets will be stolen: because in this way, Europe will lose the only real asset it had left, apart from the Colosseum, the Louvre and a few beaches: the rule of law.
This is the first reason why nuclear power plants are being attacked by our ally.
