Old Europe stands naked before the world

Europe was not as scandalous, naked, and pathetic as it is today, with the Russian invasion of Ukraine becoming an eye-opening reality. Poor Europeans these days seem like orphans at the table of convenience when they see the Russian invade Eastern European Ukraine after recognizing two separatist republics, while they and their supposed American ally until this moment are satisfied with imposing ridiculous sanctions that do not feed Moscow.

The US and European sanctions have become, in the eyes of many, a cause for ridicule, as they are much weaker than reining in the raging Russian bear. She commented on Twitter with a sarcastic tweet saying that Biden demanded that the invading Russian forces conduct a Corona test before they invade Ukraine, otherwise to prevent the Russians from drinking Coca-Cola or eating American burgers. Europe has been emaciated and emaciated, even forgetting that some of its large countries possess nuclear weapons that could threaten the Russians, but the Russian invasion made the Europeans seem lost and helpless by surprise, perhaps for the first time in their modern history.

How miserable and cynical was the German Foreign Minister when she appealed to the world to stand up to the Russian aggression against Ukraine, which reminds us of the appeals of the (universal) Arab pandemic, which in the face of major events has nothing but condemnation, condemnation and denunciation. It seems that European leaders have taken a course in the Arab League, and we may soon see them re-use the Syrian regime's farcical statements: We reserve the right to respond at the appropriate time and place.

The Ukrainian crisis has exposed the weakness and nakedness of the current European leaders, after they became begging for a humiliating wooden meeting with Putin in the Kremlin and shamefully enduring his clumsiness and bullying. As for the peoples in Europe and their media, they are eagerly awaiting a dry phone call between the arrogant Putin and some fearful European leaders, perhaps reassuring them a little about the situation of their old continent. Gone are the days when Europe was that continent to be reckoned with. The days of Mussolini, Hitler, Churchill and de Gaulle, whose decisions and armies shook thrones and terrified the world, are over. The world has discovered that Europe is really an old continent and is unable to protect itself, let alone defend others. The Ukrainian crisis revealed beyond any doubt that the European Union is a bloc of papers, and that NATO is a lie of protocol, and that America uses it only when it serves its interests, and that NATO countries act in adversity with the principle (Oh God, I ask you myself).

As for America, its relationship with the Europeans after the Ukrainian crisis will not be the same as before it. Europe has joined the group of weak countries and entities that have been under American blackmail for decades, like the Gulf states, South Korea, Singapore, Japan and others. The Russian (American) bogeyman has become a threat to the Europeans, just as the North Korean bogeyman threatens Japan and South Korea.

Europe was exposed to this shameful weakness, and America found it a wonderful opportunity that came to it without bothering and on a plate of rubies. Europe, in the coming years, will know the true meaning of blackmail at the mercy of the "Bastar" cousins ​​of Sam.

The Russian-Ukrainian crisis has shown that America still looks at the Europeans with sympathy, pity and guardianship, as if they were minors and in need of someone to take their hand and treat them with the mentality of World War II when it invented the Marshall Plan for them to extricate them from the effects of the war and raise them from under the rubble. The American view of Europe has never changed, as the recent crisis has shown. Imagine that the US administration has been speaking on many occasions on behalf of the Germans, who are at the forefront of European countries economically and technologically. However, the Americans still deal with the Europeans as if they are helpless. That is why we found Biden looking for Germany to find an alternative to the Russian Nord Stream two gas pipeline, As if Germany needs a guardian who will provide it with fuel, heating and cooking. And if the Americans deal with Germany, which is one of the most powerful countries in the world, and not only Europe, with this mentality, what about the small European countries such as Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Switzerland and others.

It is true that many German voices denounced this American approach to the Ukrainian crisis. However, after the Russian recognition of two breakaway Ukrainian republics, Germany was forced to suspend work on the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, which cost more than ten billion dollars under American pressure.

And let the Europeans thank their God a thousand times a day that Biden is the one who is currently heading the United States during the Ukraine crisis! If this scandalous crisis had taken place in the time of Trump, we would have seen Macron standing humiliated and humiliated in his hands, like Nouri al-Maliki, Ashraf Ghani and other tyrants in our region. Trump, as you know, is an exemplary model of American arrogance and arrogance and a master of the undisputed art of political blackmail. And we should not forget that he clearly blackmailed Europe before when he demanded that it pay the costs of American protection, as he did with the Gulf, as he left Iran the freedom to threaten the region so that the Gulf states would have to pay the costs of American protection. Some have talked about a similar plan between Trump and Putin, in which Russia threatens Europe in order to protect the Americans more, and thus pays them new prices in exchange for protection.

We understand from the Ukrainian crisis that the world is still a big jungle dominated by the worst of the law of the jungle, which is that “only beasts prevail” and there is no consolation for weak animals, including Europeans.
