News Observer丨Analysts: The United States continues to supply arms to Ukraine for the benefit of mil

Mondo International Updated on 2024-02-25

On the second anniversary of the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, American analysts and scholars also expressed their views on the current US continued to provide funds to Ukraine, as well as the causes and trends of the conflict. Among them, Larry Johnson, a former analyst of the US Intelligence Agency, pointed out that the result of the United States' supply of weapons to Ukraine is to transfer the relevant appropriation funds through Congress to the military-industrial complex, and American politicians in turn profit from it.

Larry Johnson, former analyst of the US Intelligence Agency: I don't think it's giving Ukraine more equipment. This is a congressional appropriation, which will direct money into the military-industrial complex. These companies, contractors, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, etc., will transfer money to some members of Congress through campaign contributions. This is your own ice cream cone. All this is done in the interests of the United States itself, using Ukraine as an excuse to justify such spending.

John Mearsheimer, professor of political science at the University of Chicago: Actually, I think a large part of [the US's] contradictions with Russia come from the unipolar era. At that time, the Cold War was over, the Soviet Union was gone, and the United States became Godzilla, a monster that thought it was a good thing to move around the globe. It is pushing for large-scale social transformation, spreading its own institutions around the world, and promoting its own "democracy" through color revolutions in other countries. We can discuss whether it will end in 3 weeks or 3 months, but it doesn't matter. Because the conflict will end, there is not much doubt about it. Then you will get a frozen conflict, and Ukraine will be in a state of friction. There will be a frozen conflict between Russia and Ukraine. This will mean more trouble for the foreseeable future.
