As the Russian army gradually takes control of Avdeyevka, there have been "Russophobic" voices in the West in recent days, claiming that a direct conflict between NATO and Russia is imminent. However, the report released at the just-concluded Munich Security Conference shows that only two of the G7 countries, the United States and the United Kingdom, see Russia as the primary threat, compared with five of the G7 a year ago. In this case, does the West really want a full-scale war with Russia? Cui Hongjian, a professor at the Institute of Regional and Global Governance at Beijing University of Foreign Chinese, believes that the West's spread of "war panic" is more about using "Russophobia" to maintain its policy towards Ukraine and try to contain Russia for a long time.
"Russophobia"It has become the political basis for the West to maintain its policy on the Ukraine crisis
Cui Hongjian, professor at the Institute of Regional and Global Governance, Beijing University of Foreign Chinese: First of all, constantly exaggerating and exaggerating Russia's security threat has actually been a basic political reason for the United States to seek confrontation with Russia, especially in the current context, it should be said that "Russophobia" is a basic political basis for the West to maintain its policy on the Ukraine crisis. We have recently noticed that in the coming period, there may be a risk that the West will face a "war" with Russia, which is actually a statement that has emerged in Europe and the United States after the decline in US support for Ukraine due to domestic political struggles. I think this should be said to be a variant of "Russophobia". Because at this time, to a certain extent, the West wants to divert the attention of the international community from the progress of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, and further let the "fatigue" that has already appeared in the West subside.
