Title: Putin has to drag something!How can Russia hold on to this ruthless drama of the United States?
Russia-Ukraine war, Putin sues for peace?This seems to be a rather controversial topic, so let's dig deeper into the pressures on Russia and whether Putin really needs to bow his head.
First of all, Russia is undoubtedly under heavy pressure in the face of attrition from the battlefield in Ukraine and strict sanctions from the West. News from Ukraine shows that Russia is bogged down on the battlefield, and the sanctions imposed by the West have made it even worse. The pressure is so great that it is self-evident.
However, there is a bold suggestion that Putin does not need to hold on all the time, and perhaps should bow to the United States, perhaps this will get Russia out of its predicament. This statement deserves our careful consideration.
To understand this issue in depth, we need to first sort out the essence of the Russia-Ukraine war. In fact, this war is considered a large-scale war of **people, and Russia is not just against one Ukraine, but also against the United States and NATO. In the planning of the United States, the longer the war is delayed, the more serious the depletion of Russia's military power. Mitt Röhm said proudly: "The Russia-Ukraine war is the most cost-effective defense investment in the history of the United States, and it has weakened 50% of Russia's military strength with less than 5% of its military budget." ”
In this regard, we can't help but think, why is the United States so cruel to Russia?Is it just to support Ukraine?Perhaps there is a deeper reason hidden in this.
Looking back at history, we find a similar scene - the Soviet Union in the late 80s of the last century. On the one hand, the Soviet army is mired in the quagmire on the battlefield in Afghanistan, and on the other hand, the West is constantly inciting wars and countries**. Does this mean that the United States intends to follow the experience of dealing with the Soviet Union and let Russia continue to ** until it can no longer threaten the hegemony of the United States?
Some people may ask, if Putin bows his head, will the United States really let Russia go?Here, we can learn from the words of Marshal *** of New China during the Korean War: "After all, the tiger has to eat people, and when to eat depends on its stomach, and it is not okay for us to give in to it......If we do not compete with US imperialism, then it will be difficult for us to build socialism. This perception suggests that bowing to the United States could have more serious consequences, but that it would be swallowed up in a different way.
This view has also been confirmed in history, as in Iraq. After the US military overthrew Saddam's regime, Iraq fell into war from the original hegemon, and the people's lives were hardly peaceful. This tells us that capitulation to the United States is not a wise path.
At the same time, recalling the experience of Russia since the collapse of the USSR, it was once naïve to fantasize about gaining acceptance in the West by abandoning the ideological struggle. However, this expectation was quickly dashed, because in the eyes of the United States, Russia has always been a sworn enemy.
So, if Putin refuses to give in, will Russia really be able to withstand the double pressure of the Russian-Ukrainian war and Western sanctions?The answer is yes. Russia is not without support, it has a firm partner behind it - China. On the road to resist US hegemony, China is Russia's most reliable teammate. In 2022, when Russia was at its most difficult, the total amount of China and Russia increased instead of decreasing, reaching a scale of 190 billion US dollars, a year-on-year increase of 29%. This is enough to show China's economic support for Russia. The combination of China and Russia is almost a match made in heaven, and if the two join forces against the West, it remains to be seen who will die.
In this complex international game, Putin's decision is particularly important. The lessons of history teach us that bowing to the West may not be the only option, even in the face of pressure. Russia's persistence and China's support may be able to stabilize the situation in this crisis. The dilemma facing Putin and Russia requires more in-depth thinking, because it is not only about Russia's future, but also about changes in the international landscape.
At this tense moment, we expect Putin to make a wise choice that is in line with national interests and the general trend of the world. And we, as part of witnessing the development of history, should also keep an eye on and think about the future direction of this world.
