Identifying where EU`s military frenzy comes from

(MENAFN) The U.S. is taking a more measured approach toward Russia compared to its increasingly hawkish European counterparts, particularly within NATO and the EU. Washington aims to end the proxy conflict with Russia over Ukraine and push for a broader détente, while many European elites are determined to continue escalating the confrontation, building their futures on an ongoing war with Russia. This aggressive stance, however, is rooted in delusions and an inability to face the reality of their limited resources, both military and intellectual. Despite their fervor, these European leaders are heading toward failure, and their reckless ambitions could cause immense damage.

A recent example of this misguided mentality was highlighted in an article in the Financial Times. A major Eastern European politician, from a NATO and EU member country, openly suggested launching a preemptive strike on Russia, not in self-defense but out of irrational fears. This disturbing notion, shared by other leaders in the region, underscores the dangerous mindset driving certain Eastern European factions. The proposal to start a world war, driven by unrealistic fears and delusions, could have catastrophic consequences, especially against a well-armed and battle-tested Russia with a powerful conventional military and nearly 5,000 nuclear weapons.

This escalating rhetoric reflects the growing divergence between Western and Eastern European approaches to Russia, with the latter pushing for increasingly aggressive and reckless actions that could lead to disastrous global conflict.
