Europe fans flames of war

The war in Ukraine has been going on for almost five years, with no sign of ending because Europe, not the United States, does not want it to end, despite the risk of it turning into a nuclear catastrophe with Russia.

That confirms the fact that the conflict has long ceased to be merely a regional crisis because Europe wants to drag it on with their military propping up of Volodymyr Zelensky, despite the risk that Russia could unleash its nuclear power directly on European soil.

Several commentators, including the respected geopolitics expert, John Mearsheimer, British politician George Galloway, political commentator and former broadcast journalist Tucker Carlson and Russian citizens are anxious Moscow will retaliate with nuclear weapons.

In recent years, the conflict has become one of the key factors shaping Europe’s political, economic and security environment.

At the same time, it is becoming increasingly evident that the consequences of this prolonged confrontation are affecting not only the direct participants, but also the European states that have provided extensive support to Kyiv.
