Rusland geen gevaar, de conclusie na overleg EU regeringsleiders op Malta……….
Tijdens de peperdure EU top in Malta, werd er met geen woord over het ‘grote gevaar’ Rusland gesproken……. Het ‘grote gevaar’ dat deze ‘leiders’ van EU landen de laatste paar jaar zo breed hebben uitgedragen, met hulp van de reguliere afhankelijke massamedia!! M.a.w.: dat gevaar blijkt niet te bestaan en daar waren en zijn deze regeringsleiders van op de hoogte……. Kortom u bent zwaar besodemieterd door: -nepnieuws brengende reguliere media, -keihard liegende politici, -geheime diensten en -NAVO geteisem!!

Trump
or Putin? EU Loses Plot on Biggest Threat
By
Finian Cunningham
If
ever an image captured the dysfunctional nature of the European Union
it was the assembled leaders of the 28 member states photographed at
an ancient fortress on the Maltese island this week.
February
05, 2017 “Information
Clearing House”
– “Sputnik”
– Talk about “fortress mentality”! The European
presidents and prime ministers were scheduled to deal
with migration from North Africa as a threat to the
bloc’s stability.
But
instead, their summit was dominated by the issue of US
President Donald Trump and the shared perception that the new
occupant of the White House poses an urgent challenge to the
EU.
“Prime
ministers and presidents at Malta summit line up to scorn
Trump’s conduct, accusing him of lack of respect,”reported the
Guardian.
French
President Francois Hollande even said that if the EU did not unite
to oppose Trump’s populist nationalism, then the bloc was doomed
to collapse.
The
irony of the European leaders’ existential apprehensions
about the new American president is laughable. For months, these
same European politicians have been led by the nose by Western
state propaganda alleging it was Russian President Vladimir Putin who
is the top threat to EU stability.
European
news media – like their US counterparts – have pushed
sensationalist claims that the Kremlin is out to subvert EU
democracies, undermine “European values”, promote
Eurosceptic political parties and smash the union.
German
Chancellor Angela Merkel warned only
a few weeks ago that putative Russian state hackers would now turn
their attention to forthcoming elections in Netherlands,
France and Germany as they had allegedly done in the US
to help Donald Trump get elected.
Amazingly
with this backdrop of anti-Russia fear-mongering, the EU
leaders in Malta this week made not a single mention of “Russian
threat”.
All
the angst of Europe’s supposed leaders was devoted to Donald
Trump undermining their institutional existence.
What
does that say about the credibility of EU politicians? When
they flip from making hysterical allegations against Russia
to huddling around like frightened children fretting
about how a new American president might induce their demise.
It
is consummate proof that the present array of incumbent EU
leaders are completely out of touch with reality. No wonder
they are quaking in their boots about forthcoming
elections. Because one suspects that they fear a day of reckoning
with angry electorates who are sick of the incompetence
at the helm of government.
Another
staggering example of disconnect among the EU cabal was the
appalling violence in Ukraine this week. While the dithering
politicians were fretting about Donald Trump, they were
apparently oblivious to the war raging in Europe.
The
Kiev regime – which the EU brought to power in a coup
d’état in 2014, along with the Americans – this week
unleashed a full-on offensive against the breakaway
self-declared republics of Donetsk and Lugansk.
Thousands
of rockets, mortars and tank artillery rounds rained down on
civilian areas of Donetsk city and suburbs in some of the
worse violence seen since the Minsk peace accord was signed
in February 2015.
Kiev
officials openly admitted that
their military forces were “advancing” on the
rebel-held territories. The unilateral violation of the Minsk
ceasefire was also confirmed by the ineffective monitors
belonging to the Organization for Security and Cooperation
in Europe, as well as BBC media footage showing
tanks sheltering among apartment blocks in the town
of Avdiivka.
Several
civilian deaths were reported from the artillery barrages by the
Kiev regime’s military, which Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman
Maria Zakharova denounced as
“barbaric violations of the Geneva Convention” – the
international law forbidding the targeting of non-combatants.
Yet
while these war crimes were carried out on the people of eastern
Ukraine, the Kiev regime’s president, Petro Poroshenko, was being
entertained in Berlin. Which is rather fitting, given the
despicable history of Berlin using Ukrainian proxies to carry
out extermination programs against ethnic Russian people.
None
of this criminal war in Europe made it on to the
agenda of the EU leaders holding their summit in Malta,
purportedly convened to discuss future threats to the bloc.
Unbelievably,
top German news publication Deutsche Welle in its weekly
round-up of global events did not have a single article on the
criminal depredations of the Kiev regime and their Neo-Nazi
brigades.
The
BBC, the British state broadcaster, defied its own video evidence
of Kiev’s tanks violating the ceasefire, by venting
unfounded claims that Russia was fueling “aggression
against Ukraine”.
Apart
from the incriminating evidence of aggression by the
US and EU-backed Kiev regime, the other key factor here is timing.
The renewed escalation in violence occurred one day after US
President Trump held a phone call with Russia’s Vladimir Putin.
That phone call last Saturday was reportedly cordial
and underscored the leaders’ commitment to end the conflict
in Ukraine.
No
doubt that is why the Kiev regime launched its offensive the very
next day in a brazen attempt to try to blame Moscow
for initiating the violence – despite all evidence to the
contrary – and hence to solicit American military support. The
Kiev regime is petrified that Trump might actually make a deal
with Putin, which would leave it stewing its own corruption and
bankruptcy.
Of
course, reliable Western mouthpieces like US Senator John
McCain, suitably amplified by media
outlets, gave cover to the Kiev regime’s ploy by claiming
that “Putin was testing Trump’s resolve”.
Shamefully,
Trump’s new ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley,
embarrassed herself by peddling the
arrant nonsense of “Russian aggression” in Ukraine.
Western
politicians and media are, as usual, dealing in falsehood
and fantasy over Ukraine’s conflict. They cannot face the facts
that a horrible regime was violently installed in Kiev
against an elected government, under the auspices
of Washington and the EU. Worse still, the West is complicit
in the ongoing war crimes through omission or willful
distortion about the suffering being inflicted on the
people of eastern Ukraine.
Blaming
Donald Trump or Vladimir Putin for the demise of the EU is
the ultimate form of scapegoating by a bunch of incompetent
leaders. They are so incompetent that they can’t even decide on who
is the supposed threat to their existence.
A
criminal war is raging in Europe, with civilians being
blown to pieces in apartment blocks in Donetsk, and
at the very same time, the so-called EU leaders don’t even see
fit to talk about that during their summit in Malta
this week.
At
this rate, the European Union, as we know it, is doomed. The
disconnect between rulers and the reality of ordinary
citizens is so vast that implosion seems inevitable. The ultimate
in unaccountability is the way the EU has created the appalling
crisis in Ukraine, and yet doesn’t even discuss the manifest
suffering of people there.
No,
the EU “leaders” are too busy discussing overblown or
imaginary dangers posed by Trump or Putin. Getting its own house
in order by being accountable and responsive to the
democratic needs of citizens is evidently not on the
agenda.
One
final note is that Francois Hollande, the most unpopular French
leader since the Second World War, is in the running
to become the next president of the European Council.
Enough said.
