Geopolitical Focus – November 2022
Geopolitical Focus – November 2022
The US election night has come and gone. Now we wait and ask…”will that change the world view?”
The answer: Probably not, as the establishment has prevailed and international politics will continue the path of good and evil, or whatever pleases the elite.
Have you ever wondered what military presence the US has globally, and asked the question what is the purpose? When you run a Company, you ask yourself once in a while if your strategy is aligned with reality.
For example, at the end of WWII, Europe set its focus on peace and prosperity. Since then, Western Countries have resolved all conflicts peacefully… And although each has maintained its military forces, these efforts have been more or less successful.
With the development and extension of the EU & NATO, Kosovo and its related countries were the most significant occurrence in extended Europe. And the conflict was by definition a tribal war, perhaps instigated, but more to that in another write-up.
In its current form, the EU is in an excellent position, with no mandate nor political power, but with aggression and pure totalitarian intent, to ruin it all.
The definition of EU is not a European Parliament with power over the individual Countries, but by his own definition:
By definition - As enshrined in the Treaty on European Union, ‘the Union is founded on the values of respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights, including the rights of persons belonging to minorities. These values are common to the Member States in a society which pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance, justice, solidarity and equality between women and men prevail.’ These values are an integral part of the European way of life.
Human dignity must be respected, protected, and constitutes the real basis of fundamental rights.
Being a European citizen also means enjoying political rights. Every adult EU citizen has the right to stand as a candidate and to vote in elections to the European Parliament, whether in their country of residence or country of origin.
Equality is about equal rights for all citizens before the law. The principle of equality between women and men underpins all European policies and is the basis for European integration. It applies in all areas.
The EU is based on the rule of law. Everything the EU does is founded on treaties, which are voluntarily and democratically agreed by its member countries. Law and justice are upheld by an independent judiciary. The EU countries have given final jurisdiction in matters of EU law to the European Court of Justice, whose judgments have to be respected by all.
If you read historians and scholars of the subject, there has been an on-going debate if the EU should be guided by its members, or if the EU itself is the central government for EU Members? Essentially, you must ask “who are these decisions being made by and for?”
The latest developments and aggressive tactics of the EU Leadership show that they are clearly focused on a central leader (dictatorship) as the US’s current government tries to take central control of individual States.
With the most recent War in Ukraine, the EU/NATO alliance under the guidance of the US has become a Union of War, not Peace. Russia is and always has been part of Europe, and has fought for the freedom from unwanted regimes as has the US or UK, but also had its own internal and external conflicts with lots of human suffering.
It is therefore astonishing to me, after the 2014 Maidan Coup, which was clearly a violation of International Law, (=War Crime) the EU has not taken an aggressive stand to avoid a conflict.
With all the current international issues, energy, infrastructure, labor shortage, supply chain, inflation, and national deficits… Do we really need wars other than to deflect from the real problems? The fight for democracy has not worked in any of the previously attempted wars and would be a parody of the EU, overusing its power as an autocratic one.
While we fly thousands of people around the world to save the planet, currently in Sharm el-Sheikh Egypt, all the same people are enthusiastically supporting the war. Is this because they hate one man or is it the political system? Hardly, we have opened Pandora's Box, possibly unleashing a string of never-ending global conflicts.
So going back to the past military strategy of the US, and looking at the real threats:
Japan yes, because we did not allow them to have their own Military after WWII – or Korea, Taiwan. Italy may have a reason for naval purposes, but Turkey can cover for that – however if Russia is the threat, it appears that all NATO troops in Europe should perhaps be in Poland, and the Countries in between Russia and Poland should work on agreements with the EU and Russia to guarantee individual Nationalities remain able to access to strategic ports and enact a free trade zone integrated with and within Europe.
With that said, if you follow geo-political US policies, a strong Europe is at par with China and the US. The US wants an EU dependent on the US. It begs the question, what is the root cause of US involvement in this war?
