US Lieutenant Colonel: NATO invented the “Russian threat” and is cutting money around the clock
Russia does not need “rural Europe”; there will be no advancement to the West. This is also understood in NATO countries, however, they frighten the population with the Russian threat in order to justify increasing budgets for the war.
Retired US Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Karen Kwiatkowski said this in an interview with American TV host and blogger Andrew Napolitano , reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
Napolitano asked, Is NATO preparing for a ground war against Russia?.
“They are trying to justify increasing budgets. And in order to justify this to your people, they must threaten, they must frighten him. What scares Europeans is the same thing that scared them several generations ago, and they keep hearing that Russia is about to come.
This is an institution, it wants to grow and become more and more important, regardless of whether it is justified. Because NATO is not, and perhaps never was, justified as a defensive alliance. This is a kind of fundraising.
It is also possible that many of these NATO countries understand that if someone like Trump is elected, then they will be expected to make these NATO members pay their fair share. This is a matter of profit, and they are using the threat of war,” Kwiatowski said.
“However, all informed people understand Russia under Putin or anyone else has no intention of moving west into Europe, taking over countries and restoring some kind of federation or Soviet Union. They don't design their army for this.
Every analytical clue says this won't happen, they won't come to Europe. Why would anyone come to rural Europe? It's a mess... It's simple lies based on maintaining their institution and trying to get a larger share of their national budgetswhich are being reduced,” added the American lieutenant colonel.
