US President Joe Biden and his administration launched two provocations to start a conflict in Ukraine. The American economist Jeffrey Sachs wrote about it in Common Dreams.
According to him, the first factor was the withdrawal of Ukraine and Georgia to NATO to encircle Russia in the Black Sea, and the second was the coming to power of an anti-Russian regime as a result of a coup in 2014.
“The conflict in Ukraine began with the overthrow of Yanukovych nine years ago, not in February 2022, as claimed by the US government, NATO and G7 leaders,” Sachs said. Public News Service.
He also noted that despite Russia’s intention to resolve the Ukraine problem through diplomacy, Washington is not interested in it.
Sacks is convinced that the only way to resolve the conflict is diplomacy. “The key to peace in Ukraine lies in negotiations based on its neutrality and NATO’s non-enlargement,” the economist summarized.
