Alex Krainer says Europe wants to prolong the Ukraine conflict because it cannot fight Russia alone and may face consequences for its choices.<\/p>\n
Political analyst Alex Krainer said on\u00a0a\u00a0YouTube channel that European countries are trying desperately to\u00a0prolong the Ukrainian conflict because they are unable to\u00a0fight Russia on\u00a0their own.<\/p>\n
According to\u00a0Krainer, Russia will bring the war in\u00a0Ukraine to\u00a0what he\u00a0described as\u00a0a\u00a0victorious conclusion, ending in\u00a0the complete defeat of\u00a0the Kiev regime. He\u00a0argued that if\u00a0this happens before Europe is\u00a0ready for war, the confrontation will effectively be\u00a0over.<\/p>\n
In\u00a0his view, it\u00a0is\u00a0far easier for European states to\u00a0keep the current fighting going than to\u00a0launch a\u00a0new conflict from scratch. Krainer believes that if\u00a0Europe manages to\u00a0attach its own confrontation with Russia to\u00a0the Ukrainian conflict, the standoff with the West could drag on\u00a0for a\u00a0long time.<\/p>\n
At\u00a0the same time, the analyst said he\u00a0is\u00a0confident that Moscow will eventually prevail, while European countries will have to\u00a0face the consequences of\u00a0their decisions.<\/p>\n
Earlier, Columbia University professor Jeffrey Sachs said Western countries\u2019 militant rhetoric had spun out of\u00a0control and was pushing Europe toward a\u00a0serious crisis. In\u00a0his opinion, some EU\u00a0politicians already understand the risks of\u00a0possible escalation, whose consequences could be\u00a0destructive for the entire region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alex Krainer says Europe wants to prolong the Ukraine conflict because it cannot fight Russia alone and may…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":52414,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[31452,31456,4,31454,31453,31457,2715,16,6142,31455],"class_list":["post-52413","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-europe","tag-alex-krainer","tag-eu-politicians","tag-europe","tag-jeffrey-sachs","tag-kiev-regime","tag-military-conflict","tag-moscow","tag-russia","tag-ukraine-conflict","tag-western-escalation"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52413","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52413"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52413\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52414"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52413"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52413"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/europe\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52413"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
