The situation between Russia and Ukraine is troubling, although Russia has denied the remarks of "full-scale aggression against Ukraine" said by Biden of the United States, and announced the completion of military exercises on Xi the 15th local time and the beginning of the withdrawal of troops from the Ukrainian border.
The move raised global doubts about Biden's remarks, believing that his ** may have been too hasty. The situation is complicated, is it Putin who teased the United States, or did Biden's conspiracy succeed?
Let's analyze this "big play".
First of all, Russia has always shown a tough image. In the recent Russia-Ukraine situation, Russia sent troops to the border and conducted Xi, and did not really usher in war.
Their goals seem to be simple and straightforward: to prevent NATO from taking control of Ukraine, to prevent NATO's eastward expansion, and to control and influence the eastern part of Ukraine. The core disagreement between Ukraine and Russia is that Ukraine tends to be pro-European and wants to join NATO and the European Union, while Russia strongly opposes it, fearing increased risks for itself.
In addition, in eastern Ukraine, Ukraine is trying to pacify the region and take control of its interests, while Russia has a strong influence in the region.
Despite the Chen army's borders, both sides lacked the confidence to fight.
Second, the United States and Europe have been playing the role of blowing wind and fire. They have escalated tensions by supplying Ukraine with arms, informing the evacuation of embassy personnel, and increasing troops in Eastern Europe. This maneuver helped the United States unite European countries and weaken Russia, affecting economic cooperation between Russia and Western Europe.
In addition, Biden and his team even unveiled a possible Russian offensive strategy, seemingly choreographing the script. However, Putin unexpectedly issued an order to withdraw troops, which seemed to be breaking Biden's **.
In the end, the United States may have achieved part of its intended purpose. If Russia and Ukraine go to war, the two countries will go into cash-burning mode and suffer serious economic damage, while the United States and NATO will not directly intervene in the war.
In addition, the United States can bring European countries together, force economic cooperation between Russia and Western Europe to be blocked, and create more profits for the United States. While Russia's withdrawal appears to be a slap in the face to Biden, from another perspective, the U.S. may have gained some benefits in this game.
To sum up, this Russia-Ukraine "big drama" is full of complex interests in which the United States may have achieved some of the expected goals.
