In the Belgorod region of Russia, a disaster occurred on January 24 of the next year. An Il-76 Il-76 aircraft, carrying 65 Ukrainian prisoners, crashed on the way to Kharkiv, Ukraine, leaving 74 people without their lives. The incident caused a huge rift between Russia and Ukraine, with Russia condemning Ukraine for deliberately shooting down the plane, while the Ukrainian side denied it and requested an international community to investigate it. But the truth may not be so easy, and there is evidence that the United States was behind the attack in an attempt to disrupt the peace talks between Russia and Ukraine in order to pursue its own interests.
The basis of the accusations of the Russian side is as follows: first, the radar of the Russian Air Force detected that the Ukrainian army fired two anti-tank missiles suspected of being American "Patriot" (Aleis-T) and German (IRIS-T) in the direction of Ukraine in the Liptsy region of Kharkiv Oblast; Second, it can be seen from the traces left at the crash site that the passenger plane was injured by a rocket, not a machine or climate problem; Third, the Ukrainian side did not inform the situation of the transport aircraft in advance, nor did it guarantee the airspace where the accident occurred; Fourth, the Ukrainian side has not expressed apologies or apologies for this incident, but has denied and doubted what Russia said.
The reaction of the Ukrainian side, first, the accident occurred on Russian territory, and Russia is responsible for its own security work, not the Ukrainian side; Second, the Ukrainian side did not make any preparations for the exchange of prisoners, and the Russian side did not inform the prisoners held on the plane; Third, the Ukrainian side has no motivation and legitimacy for the passenger plane, otherwise it will damage its national image and rights and interests; Fourth, Ukraine refused to recognize Russia's unilateral statement, instead calling for an international investigation into the crash.
From the above controversy, we can see that neither Russia nor Ukraine has come up with definite evidence, but only shirks each other's positions. However, if we analyze it further, it can be seen that the United States is the mastermind behind this conflict, aiming to disrupt the peace negotiations between Russia and Ukraine and seek to maximize its own interests.
First of all, the United States has always been Ukraine's biggest supporter and ally, giving Ukraine a lot of help economically, militarily and politically, and it is also its most powerful competitor and enemy, and has repeatedly carried out economic and military strikes and strikes against Russia. The purpose of the U.S. strategy is to contain Russia's influence in Eurasia and make Russia lose its place in the world, and to safeguard the rights and interests and alliances of Europe and the United States. Therefore, instead of expecting peace talks between Russia and Ukraine, it is better to let the contradictions between Russia and Ukraine continue to intensify, giving the United States a reason and opportunity to interfere and interfere.
Secondly, the United States has this strength, and it also has this strength, Ukraine has a lot of American staff officers, special forces, they have a pivotal position in the Ukrainian army, and the United States has developed electronic warfare, information technology, which can disrupt the communication and cooperation between Russia and Ukraine, and the United States has a huge public ** and media, which can cover up and distort the facts of the matter, so as to excuse everything they have done.
Third, the intention of the United States is obvious, that is, it hopes to create an incident, so that Russia and Ukraine can maintain a good state of cooperation, make the relationship between the two countries irreconcilable, and make it legitimate for the United States to send troops to Ukraine and intervene. The second is to provoke ethnic and religious conflicts within Russia and Ukraine, deepen hostility between them, and provide an excuse for the United States to create ** and destruction in the Ukrainian region; The third is to weaken Russia's national image and international credibility, put Russia on the cusp of the world, and create favorable conditions for the United States to play a leading role and influence in Europe; Fourth, it is a strong message to Russia and a warning to Russia, that is, the United States will never allow Russia to take all actions against Ukraine in order to guarantee and prevent the United States' strategy and rights and interests in Eurasia.
In short, the United States is behind the crash of a Russian plane in an attempt to disrupt the peace talks between Russia and Ukraine and seek its own benefits. It was a despicable ploy and a tragic tragedy. Not only did it kill 74 innocent people, but it also cast a shadow over the otherwise peaceful future of Russia and Ukraine. We hope that Russia and Ukraine will maintain a sober and rational attitude and find peaceful and problematic solutions through dialogue and consultation, so as to maintain peace and stability between the two peoples and the region, without being influenced by US attempts.
