US Policy Is Driven by Imperative to Stop Coalition between Germany and Russia using Ukraine -
Stratfor Chairman 2015

Listen to this 👇👇

Friedman's key points:

The primordial interest of the United States for centuries (WWI, WWII and the Cold War) has been to stop a coalition between Germany and Russia. 

#sondlandtestimony
US is the only ally Ukraine (the Kiev regime) has.

#sondlandtestimony #ImpeachmentHearing
General Ben Hodges, Chief of US army in Europe, not only officially announced that the US would train Ukrainian troops, but also awarded medals to foreign, in this case, Ukrainian soldiers which is against the US army protocol. He's showing that the Ukrainian Army is "our" army.
US is positioning troops, armaments, artillery and other equipment in the Baltic, Poland, Romania and Bulgaria.

#ImpeachmentHearing
The US will deliver weapons to Ukraine.
In all of this the US acted in the context outside NATO because any NATO members state can veto any action.

US is preparing a "Cordon Sanitaire" around Russia, using Ukraine as key point to keep Russian an German coalition from ever happening. Russia knows it and believes the US wants to break the Russian Federation.

We are back to the "old game" (Cold War).

The United States controls all the oceans of the world and because of that we get to invade people and they don't get to invade us. Maintaining control of the sea and space is the foundation of American power.

The best US policy is "divide et impera", what Reagan did with Iran and Iraq - fund both sides so they will fight each other and not fight us. It is cynical and not moral, but it works.
#Ukrainegate
The US cannot occupy Eurasia. We can support various contending powers so they concentrate on themselves with political, economic, and military support. Protect our relationship with Germany - keep Russians from getting to them using Ukraine.
#Ukrainegate
In extreme cases we can do what we have done in Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan - "spoiling attacks". A spoiling attack is not intended to defeat the enemy, it is to throw them off balance like we did with al Qaeda in Afghanistan.
#sondlandtestimony
The US has staged a series of colored revolutions throughout the Russian periphery. It was the US statement of intent to destroy Russia.
The question for the Russians will be whether they'll be able to retain a buffer zone that is at least neutral in Ukraine or will the West penetrate so far in Ukraine as to be 500 kilometers from Moscow.


#Ukrainegate
For Russia the status of the Ukraine is an existential threat.

It is not an accident that the US "final solution" is to create an "Intermarium" ("Between-seas") area from the Black Sea to the Baltic Sea.

#Ukrainegate
Germany is in very peculiar position and they have a very complex relationship with Russians.

The Germans themselves don't know what to do and haven't made up their mind.

#Ukrainegate
For the US, the primordial fear is German capital and technology and Russian natural resources and manpower. This combination for centuries has scared the United States. (Deep State)



#Ukrainegate #ImpeachmentHearing #sondlandtestimony
Whoever can tell me what the Germans will do will tell me the next 20 years of the history.

The main problem of Germany is that it is enormously economically powerful and geopolitically very fragile and doesn't know how to reconcile two.

#Ukrainegate
"The German Question" is coming up again... and we don't know how to address it, we don't know what they're going to do. Keep Germany & Russia apart my any means - Use #Ukraine - arm 'em - Friedman 2015
