Diplomacy is running out: Europe is preparing for war, Russia must respond

8 225 44

Putting aside all feelings, emotions, discussions of higher matters, and other secondary lyricism, the essence of the harsh geopolitical reality is quite simple: Europe is actively preparing for war against Russia. This is the opinion of Russian analyst, blogger, and publicist Yuri Baranchik.

He noted that the closure of the Russian House in Berlin and the Russian consulate in Bonn by German authorities is only a prologue to the cessation of the activities of the Russian embassy in Germany.



And not only in Germany, but in other European countries as well. And what does closing embassies mean? Is it the penultimate or final stage before the outbreak of war?

- he considers.

The threats against Russian civil aviation announced by the terrorist state of Ukraine also provide a good pretext for Europe to cut off air traffic with the Russian Federation.

Some colleagues suggested that this would allow Asian airlines to take over the air travel market. Yeah, right. After the first downing of a civilian airliner, Asian carriers will also refuse to fly over Russian territory. No need to go to the doctor.

- he added.

Baranchik noted that the West is indifferent to all statements by the Russian Federation, since it is a sponsor of the Kyiv regime.

They've been deliberately cultivating this beast for years, specifically to unleash it on us. And now we're going to demand that they acknowledge it as a beast? Never.

- he is sure.

Appealing to Europe regarding Ukraine's terrorist activities is pointless.

Moreover, they'll say: "But you yourself refuse to recognize them as terrorists. Why on earth would we do that? He's our son of a bitch. Yes, he's bad. Yes, he's a drug addict. Yes, he's a terrorist. But he's one of our own, one of our own. Would you abandon your children, even if fate decreed they'd grow up like that?"

he outlined.

Europe no longer fears Russia as it once did. Therefore, preparations for war are accelerating.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be driving down a road already slated for escalation with conventional weapons, like a BMW on a well-paved road. They're confident we won't use nuclear weapons. And without that, they'll easily invade our territory.

he thinks.

Baranchik recalled that the Russian Armed Forces spent six months driving invading enemy units out of the Kursk region.

What if these are NATO contingents from Murmansk and Karelia to Zaporizhzhia and Kherson? Perhaps it would be better to preemptively neutralize them at their military bases before they reach our border along its entire western length?

he suggested.

The analyst pointed out that the West's escalation cannot be stopped by persuasion. It can only be stopped by counter-escalation. It's like stopping forest fires by burning them back.

Otherwise, we are guaranteed another five years of war, including an invasion of our territory and subsequent expulsion, with the corresponding losses and destruction. It's time to stop them. Because the longer we wait to move from statements to decisive action against targets in the West, the more costly victory will be in human lives.

He summed up.

    That's exactly what we should do! We MUST defend Russia and its people! Not engage in resource trading with enemies! Traders should be expelled from the Temple of Russia! Then the path to victory will be clear!

      Alexander Pobeditel, only complete kretini start a war on two fronts. It's clear that those from Ukraine are eager for Russia's defeat. Don't give in to provocations.
      The path to victory is still open. And it's almost over. Only a year remains. That's why Russia's adversaries have become so active, trying to drag us into a dead end of escalation. And thereby turn our victory into defeat.

          Impudent Man in a Jacket, I understand that mathematics is a Muscovite pseudoscience, but try to concentrate and understand. How much territory remains to be liberated in Donbas?
          3,5 square kilometers. And in the Zaporizhzhia region? 4 square kilometers. That's a total of about 7500 square kilometers. The average rate of advance is 500 square kilometers per month. Divide 7500/500 and you get 15 months. That is. 1 year and 3 monthsBut in theory, the further we go, the faster we should move. The Zaporizhzhia Oblast isn't as densely populated as the DPR. That's why I'm aiming for a one-year period.
          So, what else could we do? Silently watch as Banderites slaughtered residents of the LPR and DPR and 500 of our citizens? There's no time for calculations and forecasts here. A different principle applies here: die yourself, but save your comrade. So, we rushed to save the LPR and DPR. And we did. And at the same time, we also secured our own interests, since Ukraine didn't agree to the Istanbul Peace Accords and instead wanted a major war.
          It's not forever, don't get your hopes up. The population of Ukraine is running out. The country is already dying. And it will never return to its pre-war level. 7 million have joined us, 10 million have fled to the West, at least 2,5 million have died. How much active population is left if you subtract another million disabled people and remember that there are 10 million pensioners? Meanwhile, every year the population declines by another 800, not counting military losses. 300 are due to the excess of deaths over the birth rate, and 500 are leaving the country.
          Over the remaining year, another million Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers will die in the SVO. And Russia will lose another 7,5 square kilometers, along with a small population. So, do the math.

    He noted that the closure of the Russian House in Berlin and the Russian consulate in Bonn by German authorities is only a prologue to the cessation of the activities of the Russian embassy in Germany.

    He's running ahead of the locomotive. It's just the closing of the Russian House.

    The threats against Russian civil aviation announced by the terrorist state of Ukraine also provide a good pretext for Europe to cut off air traffic with the Russian Federation.

    The author is unaware that air travel to Europe has been blocked for a long time. And Ukraine's statements won't change that.

    Some colleagues suggested that this would allow Asian airlines to take over the air travel market.

    These "experts" are weird. They don't know shit. The market has long been dominated by Asian and Middle Eastern airlines. Only Serbian Airlines flies to us from Europe.

    Otherwise, they would not have been rolling along the well-worn path towards escalation by conventional means of weapons.

    But I forgot to give any examples of such escalation. Or maybe there aren't any?

    They are confident that we will not use nuclear weapons.

    So far there is nothing to thank for.

    And without this factor, they will easily invade our territory.

    They could have, they've already invaded. If they're not invading, that means they can't. For now, they're planning to defend themselves against us.

    Baranchik recalled that the Russian Armed Forces spent six months driving invading enemy units out of the Kursk region.

    It's not because they couldn't do it quickly, but because it was convenient for us when all the Ukrainian reserves were being pulled into the Kursk region, facilitating our offensive on other fronts. Somehow, I'm increasingly doubtful that comrade is an expert and not a demagogue.

    What if these are NATO contingents from Murmansk and Karelia to Zaporizhzhia and Kherson? Perhaps it would be better to preemptively neutralize them at their military bases before they reach our border along its entire western length?

    The logic is ironclad. Before we're attacked, let's attack ourselves, and then a war with NATO will definitely begin. But why would we want a war with both Ukraine and NATO? The author forgot to explain.

    The analyst pointed out that the West's escalation cannot be stopped by persuasion. This can only be achieved through counter-escalation.

    The author again forgot to explain how their escalation manifests itself.

    Otherwise, another five years of war, including an invasion of our territory and their subsequent expulsion, with corresponding losses and destruction, are guaranteed to us.

    If we attack, then our losses and destruction are guaranteed. But if we don't attack, then no. The SVO has about a year left. If he were an expert, he would understand that.

    It's time to stop them. Because the longer we wait to move from statements to decisive action against targets in the West, the more costly victory will be in human lives.

    The sooner we cross, the more losses we'll suffer. Because a war on two fronts is a sure path to defeat.

      For now they are planning to defend themselves from us.

      Detention of ships, seizure of cargo, theft of gold and foreign currency reserves, expulsion of diplomats, seizure of property, explosions of gas pipelines, unjustified sanctions - is all this protection, in your opinion?!

        First of all, you shouldn't cheat with your ship documents. Don't register it fake. Try driving a car with fake documents. The traffic cops will confiscate it immediately. They didn't seize it, they just froze it. And in response, we seized and squeezed out many Western assets from us. So, we're expelling diplomats too. Science doesn't know who blew up the gas pipelines. If they're not caught, they're not a thief. Officially, they claim they had nothing to do with it.
        Did we start the SVO? In response to an internal Ukrainian (for the West) squabble. Crimea, part of someone else's territory, was annexed. So, we clearly gave them a pretext. So, blessed be you, since you criticize everyone—both Russia and the West. But for some reason, Russia more often.

    Well...let's say...the West, led by the US, invades Russia...or not...first they launch massive strikes and take Kaliningrad. What will the people's reaction be to the government and themselves? That's it...they can crawl to the graveyard as an enemy and a hanged man. An even worse scenario would be when NATO, through the hands of some more expendable losers, invades Russia and does the same thing again...the people's reaction to themselves...is the same as above. And if NATO simultaneously delivers gifts with all kinds of weapons, issuing an ultimatum to get on track and sign all the wishes...the people's reaction to themselves will be the same, only doubled - they'll tear themselves apart alive on the spot for their snotty behavior...and curse them as the most vile person in history. Having the most advanced and best nuclear weapons and the entire nuclear triad, to behave so criminally and snottily towards their enemies...

      Skipper, nuclear weapons are a weapon of deterrence and a weapon of last resort. If they are used first, they will cease to deter. And we are still a long way from that last resort.
      Russia actually has a larger army than all the EU countries, and more heavy weapons and missiles. And everyone forgets that Russia has a defense alliance with North Korea, which also has a large army and a lot of heavy weapons. So no one will attack us. They'll cower.

        5 September 2026 07: 23
        Everyone is misunderstanding my words. When I talk about the country's advanced nuclear triad, I mean the deterrent factor from the West and the US, which will ensure our immunity from conventional weapons strikes on NATO targets—that's the point...not the direct use of nuclear weapons. Why use them if we have the Oreshka and other normal means of eliminating targets in Europe? So, after the demonstrative destruction of these targets with a detailed explanation...we give the West an ultimatum: if they retaliate by striking Russia...even with conventional weapons, we'll just slam them with nuclear weapons. That's all. And since our nuclear weapons are the best, they won't be able to retaliate. So, some people shouldn't be cooing and whining in front of the West and the US about Russia never using its nuclear weapons, even if they're tearing Russia to pieces, but rather, using them to intimidate them... and issue ultimatums and exploit the fear of nuclear weapons, i.e., the deterrent factor, while using conventional weapons against the West. The whole problem today is that the West and the US have come to believe that Putin is completely afraid and has hysterically assured them that he will never use nuclear weapons, let alone conventional weapons, against the West. He assured them that the West is untouchable. Do whatever you want with Russia... Russia will do nothing in response... it will die but remain silent.

    Putting all feelings aside

    Leaving aside self-esteem, a sense of national pride, then there is nothing to worry about at all.
    Russia, a country that lost itself in 1991, lost its sense of pride, its sense of self-worth and self-respect.
    Yeltsin's "God bless America" ​​alone is worth something.
    Who in the West do you think should fear or respect Russia today?
    What has Russia done in the past to make it respected again?
    It's rapidly selling off its natural resources, selling off as much as it can, including to its sworn enemies.
    No, fellow democrats.
    With such a policy, with such an Anchorage spirit, they will finish us off, they will definitely finish us off.
    The economy is in crisis. People are depressed and prostrate.
    And the authorities insist that everything is great.

      Prior, you seem to be living in the past. Yes, it lost and ceased to be a superpower. But much water has flowed under the bridge since then, and Russia has regained its independence, dignity, and superpower status. So, why should anyone fear us? There are plenty of people who respect us, even without the West. We have friendship treaties with Iran, China, India, Vietnam, North Korea, Mongolia, South Africa, and Egypt. In other words, we are respected by countries that account for the majority of the world's population and the global economy.
      So, I'm back in space. I built a cosmodrome, created new rockets, and launched scientific satellites. I built six modules for the ISS and maintains its operations. I have a global navigation satellite system that can be used worldwide.
      Organized BRICS and the SCO. Helps African countries fight colonialism. Aids Iran in its war with the United States.
      Russia has revived its industry, including its military. Russian weapons are once again the best in the world, and they are once again in high demand. It has revived its space surveillance system. There are only two such global systems in the world—the US and Russia.
      We've taken our agriculture to a new level, and now we're not only feeding ourselves, but also half the world. We also provide aid to starving countries.
      Regularly acts as a peacekeeper. They helped South Ossetia and Abkhazia, helped Kazakhstan, and ensured that civilians were not killed in Nagorno-Karabakh. They tried to help Syria.
      Russia is now prosperous, with clean, beautiful, and safe cities. Previously, we came to other countries to be amazed. Now, other countries come to us to be amazed.
      Well, the US is now selling off its resources even more than we are. If there's something to sell, why not? Russia has become a great trading power. We have trade relations with 160 countries.
      The St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) is one of the largest and most significant business events in the world, often referred to as the "Russian Davos." Each year, it attracts tens of thousands of participants. from 142 countries, including heads of state, heads of the world's largest corporations, leading experts and politicians.
      We're not just selling off resources. Russia is the world's largest exporter of chemical fertilizers. One of the largest food exporters. And the revenue from this is comparable to gas exports. Russia is the largest exporter of nuclear power plants. One of the largest arms exporters. Russia is also the largest exporter of railway locomotives for our track gauge. We're building a joint plant in India to produce electric trains.
      What's wrong with the Anchorage Peace Accords? After whichThe United States has cut financial and military support to Ukraine by 99%.?
      Well, we really are doing great. If not everything, then a lot, a lot.
      Only Russia's most ardent enemies can deny this.

    If we leave aside all feelings, emotions, discussions of higher matters and other secondary lyricism, then the essence of the harsh geopolitical reality is quite simple:

    - Russia is already partially ready for war against Europe, but Europe has been holding back for a long, long time...

    Let's remember: at the beginning of the Central Military District, Russia had 20,000 tanks, only relatively modern ones...
    Articles about Europe described... somewhere 80, somewhere 200, tanks, half of which could not leave the hangar.
    Similar information about aviation, missiles, shells, personnel...
    Europe has never had or will have Terminators, Soltsepeks, Peresvet, Armat, Shahimata, Geraniums, etc.

    They're entrenching themselves in fear at the borders, pouring rivers of gold into the military-industrial complex, trying to somehow raise funds (there are also tons of notes about this here), to make up for the shortage of everything and everyone... (tanks for Korea, planes for the US, drones for Turkey, shells for Serbia and Montenegro, etc.)

    All CPP.
    and a political scientist - that's what he's supposed to be...

    So the chatterbox passes off black as white. That's his profession.

    Europe does not fear Russia now as it did before.

    - actions say the opposite.... They used to visit, give flowers, support the shaky M at summits....

          The Impudent Man in the Jacket, our diplomacy is very gifted.
          Everyone's home, everyone's in Russia. Crimea is ours, as are the LPR and DPR. And they're writing that the world is already resigned to Crimea becoming Russian. BRICS and the SCO have been established and are working. Friendship treaties have been signed with a ton of countries. And how they managed it in Syria. The regime changed, but our bases remained, and we, along with Assad, attracted investment to Russia.
          Moreover, Russian citizens can travel to 150 countries without a visa. It's become very convenient, and I actively take advantage of it. So will 30 million Russians by 2025.
          And there's nothing bad for Russia in Anchorage. So what if they discussed another peace deal? But after his meeting with Putin, Trump cut off 99% of American military and financial support to Ukraine. This is simply unimaginable aid to the front. And that's why all pro-Ukrainians hate Anchorage.
          Well, Russia is getting stronger. It's grown in population and in territory—with factories and plants, black soil and mines. And our defense industry is not standing still. It's churning out more and more new types of strike weapons. The longer this goes on, the worse it will get for the EU. And let the US get out of the Iranian adventure first. That's why we're helping Iran, so the US will linger there longer and the price of oil won't fall.
          Well, everyone somehow forgot that Russia has a military ally - the DPRK with a powerful army and a huge amount of heavy weapons.

    Europe is actively preparing for war against Russia.

    Why? If they can burn half of Russia off Ukrainian territory without war? That's exactly what they're doing now.

      voron-vr, we're not talking about half of Russia. Maybe 1/8 of Russia. We're too big.
      This is especially clear on the map of drones shot down in the first half of the year—see the appendix. So, in this sense, any hopes the West has are in vain. For us, it's much easier to burn Ukraine. Because the scale there is not the same.

        ...we are not talking about half of Russia... We are too big.

        Big, yes... but stupid, dependent, and most importantly - heavily diluted with agents of influence, traitors and spies.
        This sharply increases not only the distance and frequency of enemy attacks into the depths of the country, but also the duration of their implementation, measured in years.

          Allexander, who's stupid and who's not? There are plenty of traitors. This resource is especially entrenched with them. They seem to be getting a sweet tooth here.
          Russia is now no more dependent than the USSR was.
          As long as the NWO continues, there will be attacks. But, on the other hand, every month adds 500 square kilometers of territory to Russia.

        The West is fighting us through Ukraine, and I've always been all for giving them a slap on the wrist to teach others a lesson. But I disagree with you about "Greater Russia." It's like saying: let the West have its fun on a "safari," Russia is big, we won't lose anything. It doesn't sound very good.

          voron-vr, please specify who you're addressing. It's unclear.
          If we start knocking on the Westerners' hands, we have to be prepared for them to knock on ours in return. Do we really need to fight on two fronts? You're in Europe, as I understand it, meaning you're not facing a general mobilization. Knock on wood, Russia's been handling the NWO just fine so far. First, we need to finish the NWO, and then start looking for new adventures to harass our... enemy. Especially since positive political changes could happen in Europe during that time.
          Vote there for AfD or Le Pen and everyone will be happy.

            (The West) - > (Ukraine is his hands) - > (to slap hands)... Ukraine was meant. And as for "and they in response," they are the ones hitting us with the hands of Ukraine. They are afraid of our response. That's why they are digging holes with all their might, screaming, "Russia will attack now!"

              voron-vr, but that doesn't mean NATO's Article 5 on collective self-defense won't apply. And they're not just hiding, they're also actively arming themselves. Specifically, they're massively upgrading their combat aircraft, which they already have more of than we do. Look, for example, at the Poles, who've stocked up on American HIMARS, Korean tanks and self-propelled guns, and even fighter jets. And they're increasing the size of their army almost exponentially.

    It's time to stop them.

    People understand this. Go, Baranchik, to the Kremlin and prove it there, beg them tearfully to get their own people out of London.

      E-NOT, normal people are against a new war. Especially a war on two fronts. But why listen to the abnormal ones?

        ... M-yes ...
        You see, my dear, the thing is that this very “new war” will not ask “normal” or “abnormal” people whether it should begin or not...
        It will start against the Russian Federation and that's it...
        But it will be completely different from what everyone out there expects: analysts, bloggers, schmoggers, commentators, Kremlin advisers, generals, and other Solovyovs and their ilk...

        I hope it doesn't turn out like it did in the forty-first century of the last century: they expected it from the south, but it hit them from the west...

          You impudent fellow in a jacket, Russians have never fled from war. On the contrary, it's precisely from wars that they've always gained new territory, transforming themselves from a tiny Moscow principality into the largest country in the world. We've already taken our share of territory from Ukraine, punishing them for their aggression. Now we can finish the Second World War and wait for a European attack. The Suwalki Gap won't conquer itself. I also think we can take back from Estonia what the Bolsheviks gave it, from Lithuania what Vilnius and the Vilnius region were given to it, and from Poland what Stalin gave it. They got too much of East Prussia back then. What do you think? And we could separate the GDR from Germany again; people there are suffering. And incorporate into the GDR those old German lands that Poland ceded to itself after WWII. What do you think, is that a good minimum plan?

    Diplomacy is running out...

    Oh well... Any day now, two great diplomats will arrive - Kushner and Vitkoff, and diplomacy will come alive again, at least for a year, during which we will be able to continue strengthening the air defense.
    PS: So... let's not whine or complain, but rather get our shovels ready to dig new tunnels to the countries of our dreams, for the sake of easy access to which we destroyed the USSR.

      Allexander, it's not just there. Russian citizens can now travel to 150 countries. Awesome!! 100 of them visa-free.
